So yesterday I watched the first episode of the Netflix documentary This is a Robbery, about the 1990 heist at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston and the accents alone made me homesick.

For those who did not grow up in the land of dropped R's: two thieves dressed as cops stole 13 works from the museum, valued at a total of $500 million. The art, which included paintings by Rembrandt, Vermeer, Degas, and Manet, has never been found and no arrests have ever been made. The museum is offering a $10 million reward for information leading to the recovery of the stolen works. I'm trying to avoid spoilers because even though I grew up in Boston and I'm familiar with the story, a few headlines about the doc have teased that it...

After several senators criticized the company, Apple said on Sunday it would send its chief compliance officer to an April 21st hearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee, the office of Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) confirmed.

Leaders of the Senate Judiciary Committee sent a letter to Apple CEO Tim Cook on Friday demanding that the company send a representative to the hearing, saying Apple was refusing to participate. In the letter, Klobuchar and Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) say Apple "abruptly" decided not to provide a witness for the hearing on digital markets focused on Apple's App Store and the Google Play Store.

"Apple's sudden change in course to refuse to provide a witness to testify before the Subcommittee on app store competition issues...

French lawmakers have voted to ban domestic flights on routes that could be taken in a train ride in less than two-and-a-half hours, Reuters reported. The vote late Saturday comes as part of France's larger climate bill, which seeks to reduce its 1990-level carbon emissions by 40 percent over the next decade.

The airline warned it is expecting an operating loss of 1.3 billion euros when it reports its first-quarter earnings next month. The airline industry is reeling with the impact of the coronavirus pandemic, which has led to a sharp reduction in global travel over the past year.

Google reportedly ran a secret project called "Project Bernanke" that relied on bidding data collected from advertisers using its ad exchange to benefit the company's own ad system, The Wall Street Journal reported. First discovered by newswire service MLex, the name of the project was visible in an inadvertently unredacted document Google had filed as part of an antitrust lawsuit in Texas.

A federal judge has since let Google refile the document under seal. But according to the Journal, "Bernanke" was not disclosed to outside advertisers, and proved lucrative for Google, generating hundreds of millions of dollars for the company. Texas filed an antitrust lawsuit against Google in December, alleging that the search giant was using...
