A multiday nor’easter is expected to bring heavy rain and wind to the East Coast, leading to widespread event cancellations. From Virginia all the way north to Rhode Island, over 33 million people are currently in areas with coastal flood alerts, particularly affecting places like the Jersey Shore and New York’s Long Island. The severe weather alerts are driving organizers of large events like concerts or gatherings to cancel ahead of the weekend, some with very short notice. Here are some of the large-scale events that have been canceled due to expected severe weather. (Note: The list below is not…

Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own. Even great MLB pitchers rarely make it past 15 seasons, especially in the modern era. CC Sabathia, however, slung it for 19 electric seasons, becoming one of the most dominant and durable lefties of his generation. But even Sabathia couldn’t outrun Father Time forever, and in 2019, it was time to hang up his cleats. Now, as they celebrate the Yankees retiring CC’s iconic No. 52, Sabathia and his wife, Amber, are reflecting on life after MLB and how they’re giving back to their community through the PitCCh In Foundation. The Sabathias…
At a moment when employers are sinking billions of dollars into AI adoption, workforce development has become less of a priority. Training budgets have contracted, forcing companies to make tough choices about which employees deserve the additional support that they’re still willing to offer. With finite resources for training and upskilling their employees, who should they invest in: low performers or their best and brightest? That’s the question behind new research out of Cornell University, which found that decisions regarding employee selection for additional training can prove fraught, depending on the culture of a workplace. On the whole, workers tend…
The tradwife has entered the conversation. Instagram showcases her baking bread, doing laundry, and extolling the virtues of domestic bliss—a counterpoint to the girlboss who is always working, and always tired. Is this tradwife-versus-girlboss conflict simply the latest version of the mommy wars of the 1980s and 1990s, when women’s personal choices about paid work and caregiving became public judgements about what women ought to want? Or is it something more? This is what we sought to find out in our research. Today’s version similarly divides women into those who “opt out” and those who “lean in.” The public conversation…

After months of beta testing, the iPhone’s newest operating system, iOS 27, is now available. This year, Apple focused on artificial intelligence features, smaller improvements, and bug fixes, making it a more subdued update than in years past. But that doesn’t mean iOS 27 lacks truly useful enhancements that can help boost your productivity throughout the day. Here are four of our favorites. Siri is finally good enough to be your assistant It’s no secret that Siri, Apple’s personal digital assistant that has lived on the iPhone for nearly 15 years, has never been very useful, especially compared with modern-day…
Long before the queer community had apps like Grindr and Sniffies to facilitate low-key hookups, gay men were keeping track of eligible partners the analog way. In unmarked bars, under the glow of swag lamps and the constant smog of cigarette smoke, they traded numbers inside the covers of collectible matchbooks—the same matchbooks that doubled as a form of social lubricant as couples danced, swayed, and lit up into the wee hours of the night. Those matchbooks, which were a feature of gay bars throughout the mid-20th century, are now the subject of two dedicated books by the designer and…
Key Takeaways KFC just opened a futuristic restaurant in McKinney, Texas, the first of its kind. Open House offers KFC’s first breakfast menu, table service, boba tea, cronuts, plus new sauces and location-exclusive items like the Twister and Southwest Corn.

Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own. Key Takeaways AI models predict numbers; they don’t calculate them. Any figure a customer will act on — like a price quote, shipping estimate or tax figure — should come from a deterministic tool, not the model itself. If running the same request 100 times must return the same answer, the model shouldn’t produce that answer. Let the model read the question and pick the right tool. A deterministic engine should then work out the value. Sounding right isn’t the same as being right. Even strong models make calculation, rounding and formula…
Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own. Key Takeaways Founders earn investor trust by running a weekly execution meeting, keeping a one-page plan and assigning a clear owner to every metric that matters. Monthly investor updates that honestly share wins, misses and asks build credibility, because bad news rarely ruins a relationship but silence does. Early-stage founders love to talk about vision. I get it. Vision is exciting, and it is often the reason a company exists in the first place. Still, when I sit across from a founder, I usually learn more from their operating habits than from…
