Yandex is Russia’s Google. In addition to being the country’s leading search engine – with a market share of 62% compared to Google’s 37% – it offers 90 services that dominate much of Russia’s digital world, including an email product and a taxi app. It beat back Google’s attempts to catch up by offering superior localized services, including maps and messaging. Russia’s invasion of Ukraine squeezed Yandex’s management. The company has attempted to depoliticize… Source link

In Tom Wolfe’s famous essay about the 1970s, “The Me Decade,” he wrote about how Americans had abandoned communal thinking in favor of personal wealth. “They took their money and ran,” he wrote. In fact, there wasn’t much money to take. Today, with the stock market in meltdown mode, it’s natural to look back at other times of financial woe: The Great Recession of 2008-2009. The bursting tech bubble in 2000. The crash of 1987, never mind 1929 — and all manner of mini-downturns and… Source link

Dak Prescott tried to quell the panic around the Dallas Cowboys. Everyone saw through that. Prescott will miss several weeks after having surgery on a fractured thumb. That would be brutal if it was the Cowboys’ only injury situation, but it’s not. Dallas looked bad in a season-opening loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and go forward with Cooper Rush at quarterback and a beat-up supporting cast. Oddsmakers downgraded the Cowboys in a big way. The few who had some preseason hope for the Cowboys… Source link

It was ugly, just the way Connecticut Sun head coach Curt Miller wanted it. Maybe a little uglier than most others would have liked. But the No. 3 seed Sun couldn’t buy the first vowel in “offense” and lost the mightily messy Game 3 affair to the No. 2 seed Chicago Sky, 76-72, at Mohegan Sun Arena in Connecticut on Sunday. Chicago leads the best-of-five series, 2-1, and is one victory away from a return to the WNBA Finals that tips off in one week. Connecticut will need to win out, including… Source link

Michigan State was game for the moment. But Duke’s talent was ultimately too much to overcome on Sunday in a high-profile NCAA men’s tournament game that saw the Blue Devils secure an 85-76 victory to keep Mike Krzyzewski’s coaching career alive. Duke fought off a barrage of Michigan State 3-pointers and a late Spartans rally to secure Krzyzewski’s 1,200th career victory, 26th Sweet 16 and one last win over his friend and rival Michigan State head coach Tom Izzo. Duke held Michigan State at bay… Source link

The Kansas City Chiefs certainly didn’t make it easy on themselves, but the top seed in the AFC is still in play. The Chiefs edged out a tight 28-24 win over the Denver Broncos on Saturday afternoon to close out their regular season, marking their 13th straight win over the Broncos. All they need now is for the Houston Texans to beat the Tennessee Titans on Sunday, and the first round bye is theirs. After trailing throughout most of the game, and seemingly about to give up another touchdown… Source link

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez at the 2021 Met Gala Celebrating In America: A Lexicon Of Fashion, Sept. 13, 2021, New York City (Photo by: NDZ/STAR MAX/IPx 2021) Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.) wore a fancy dress to a fancy party that read “Tax the Rich” on the back. It didn’t catch on. As AOC’s fellow Democrats roll out their biggest legislative package in years, conspicuously missing are major tax hikes on the wealthy—supposedly a staple of Democratic politics. There are… Source link

Kevin Durant did everything in his power to lead the Brooklyn Nets out of Game 7 and into the Eastern Conference finals on Saturday night. Somehow, though, it wasn’t quite enough. Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Milwaukee Bucks survived a thrilling overtime battle with the Nets 115-111 at the Barclays Center to reach their second conference finals in three years. Kevin Durant forces OT with wild shot After a battle worthy of a Game 7 through the first three quarters, both teams were neck and… Source link
