Airbnb (ABNB) began as a platform for accommodations that were more affordable than a hotel, but as higher fees and nettlesome checkout tasks become more commonplace, it’s presenting a risk of deterring guests. As a result, the home rental platform is addressing those concerns by providing more clarity around pricing and cleaning guidelines. “You shouldn’t have to do cleaning when you get out the door,” Airbnb CEO Chesky told Yahoo Finance Live (video above). “So what we’re asking hosts is… Source link

The all new Subaru BRZ shouldn’t even exist. What use is there for Subaru and Toyota (which helped co-develop the car and has its version, the 86), for a gas-powered, and not even turbocharged, sports car in this day and age when it’s all about EVs? Believe it not the BRZ has been around for over decade, and is still popular among enthusiasts of pure, stripped down sports cars. So when Subaru and Toyota announced they would be updated the prior gen BRZ and 86, there was much rejoicing among… Source link

With help from Derek Robertson Google’s campus in Mountain View, Calif. | AP Artificial intelligences are not people, my friends — at least, not where patent law is concerned. And Google wants to keep it that way. Last month a federal appeals court found an AI cannot be labeled an “inventor” under U.S. patent law, ruling against Stephen Thaler, who runs a company called Imagination Engines, and in favor of the US Patent and Trademark Office. Thaler claims the… Source link

U.S. Labor Secretary Marty Walsh isn’t down with younger generations’ quiet quitting tactics. Basically, the former Boston mayor said, workers need to figure it out with their employers. “Certainly, as the City of Boston mayor, if I had a situation where I had people taking a step back in working for me, I would address it as an employer,” Walsh said on Yahoo Finance Live (video above). “I would go over and talk to them and find out what the issue is and what the situations are and have those… Source link

If anything has become perfectly clear during the earliest weeks of fantasy draft season, it’s this: We cannot wait to not pick Josh Jacobs. We are aggressively not drafting Jacobs across all platforms. In fact, he’s currently falling outside the top-20 running backs at both Yahoo and NFC despite having never finished worse than RB16 in any season. He’s been mentioned in pretty much every bust, fade and must-avoid article published this summer. Jacobs, we’ve decided, is just another committee… Source link

Every time I think of the Deshaun Watson situation, I think of the numbers. They’re astounding. They tell the story.

On Friday, attorney Tony Buzbee announced that the Houston Texans had reached settlements with 30 women who had or had planned on filing lawsuits against the team, alleging that it turned a blind eye to Watson’s behavior… Source link
