WASHINGTON (AP) — Websites that displayed legally mandated U.S. national climate assessments seem to have disappeared, making it harder for state and local governments and the public to learn what to expect in their backyards from a warming world. Scientists said the peer-reviewed authoritative reports save money and lives. Websites for the national assessments and the U.S. Global Change Research Program were down Monday and Tuesday with no links, notes or referrals elsewhere. The White House,

Chipmakers get larger tax credits in Trump’s latest ‘big beautiful bill’

cnbc.com Dylan Butts 2025-08-19 04:23:07

The latest version of U.S. President Donald Trump's "big beautiful bill" could make it cheaper for semiconductor manufacturers to build plants in the U.S. as Washington continues its efforts to strengthen its domestic chip supply chain. Under the bill, passed by the Senate Tuesday, tax credits for those semiconductor firms would rise to 35% from 25%. That's more than the 30% increase that had made it into a draft version of the bill. Companies eligible for the credits could include chipmakers

Use keyword-only arguments in Python dataclasses

Python dataclasses are a really nice feature for constructing classes that primarily hold or work with data. They can be a good alternative to using dictionaries, since they allow you to add methods, dynamic properties, and subclasses. They can also be a good alternative to building your own class by hand, since they don’t need a custom __init__() that reassigns attributes and provide methods like __eq__() out of the box.

Universal Asked That Scenes Be Added Back Into ‘Jurassic World Rebirth’

There’s a reason why the biggest, most famous filmmakers in the world all want “final cut” of their movies. It’s because they don’t want anyone, least of all a studio executive, to have an impact on their vision. More often than not, when studios meddle in editing, it’s to make films shorter. However, the exact opposite happened on the new Jurassic film, Jurassic World Rebirth.
