In order to accelerate the construction of new power plants needed to provide energy for its data centers, Meta is looking to get into the business of trading electricity. Bloomberg reports that both Meta and Microsoft are asking for federal approval to trade power (Apple has already received this approval). According to Meta, this will allow it to make long-term commitments to buy electricity from new plants, while mitigating the risk by having the ability to resell some of that power on wholesale power markets. Meta’s head of global Urvi Parekh told Bloomberg that power plant developers “want to know…

I’ve spent many precious hours with my dad in pubs all over Ireland on his “beverage research trips,” learning the tricks (and stories) that informed his own Irish-style pub back stateside. As a cookbook author and food writer, my focus was always the food, not the pints. My consistent order? Shepherd’s pie. A rich savory casserole made of ground lamb, onions, carrots, and parsnips in a savory gravy topped with mashed potatoes and sometimes cheese, it’s a classic that’s served all over Ireland and the British Isles. The best shepherd’s pie I’ve ever had was in far northwest Ireland near…

It’s hard to forget Polka-Dot Man’s demise in The Suicide Squad. A villain who struggled to accept his abilities as more than a deformity, only to finally embrace his innate heroism just at the moment of his death. It was cathartic and frustrating, especially for fans who hoped to see David Dastmalchian’s spot-on characterization again. (Image credit: Warner Bros.)”That was a death. That was a really final and complete kind of death. That was a really beautiful death,” Dastmalchian told me.The actor, who’s set to inhabit Mr. 3 in One Piece season 2 on Netflix next year and an assassin…
Fufu holds a special place in the hearts of most Ghanaians. It’s a dish that has been passed down through many generations, and I see it as a symbol of Ghanaian identity and heritage. Ghana is made up of over one hundred different ethnic groups, all with their own languages and subcultures. Fufu can be just as diverse as the people in the country, and depending on where you land in Ghana, the ingredients used to make this dish vary too. Typically the Ga tribe makes their fufu from cassava, and the Ewe tribe is known to make fufu from…
In June, Fractl and Search Engine Land surveyed 2,000 consumers and uncovered a startling statistic: 82% find AI-powered search more helpful than traditional search. While the SEO industry panicked, thought leaders and snakeoil salesmen took to LinkedIn to lay claim to this new frontier of AI-driven brand visibility: “It’s called GEO!” “No, it’s AEO!” “Oh, we use AISO! Wait, I meant LLMO now!” …Or, maybe, it’s just effective SEO? Industry banter aside, we’ve entered a world where old-school search and AI-driven discovery coexist – and the terminology isn’t trivial. It’s the roadmap for how brands show up across fast-growing search…
