Iran Vows a ‘Strong and Complex’ Attack on Israel, WSJ Says
(Bloomberg) -- Iran is planning a counterattack on Israel involving more powerful warheads and other weapons, the Wall Street Journal reported, citing Iranian and Arab officials briefed on the plans. Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said Sunday the country will “certainly” launch a new attack against Israel, a day after its supreme leader vowed a harsh retaliation. Israel’s Oct. 26 attack, using more than 100 fighter jets on military targets across Iran, killed five people, including a civilian. Separately, Israel’s military said an elite commando unit captured “an Iranian terror network operative” in Syria. The operation in southern Syria “took place in recent months” and thwarted a future attack, the Israel Defense Forces said in a statement on Telegram, without providing specifics.

BH Earnings Report Reveals Significant Offload Of Apple Stock
Warren Buffett is now sitting on more than $325 billion cash after continuing to unload billions of dollars worth of Apple and Bank of America shares this year and continuing to collect a steady stream of profits from all of Berkshire Hathaway’s assorted businesses without finding any major acquisitions. Berkshire said in its earnings report Saturday that it sold off roughly another 100 million Apple shares in the third quarter after halving its massive investment in the iPhone maker last quarter. The stake valued at $69.9 billion at the end of September remains Berkshire’s biggest single investment, but it has been cut drastically since the end of last year when it was worth $174.3 billion.

Musk’s dreams of Tesla robotaxis are premature, WSJ reports
Elon Musk’s plans for Tesla (TSLA) center on what he called end-to-end artificial intelligence, in which he hopes to make it possible for Tesla to deliver fully self-driving cars faster and more cheaply than his competitors, Christopher Mims of The Wall Street Journal reports. Musk’s goal of a breakthrough in AI starkly contrasts the approach of other companies with autonomous vehicles. Waymo, which is owned by Alphabet (GOOG) (GOOGL), is using data from more sensors to teach its vehicles by correcting them as they do the driving. Meanwhile, Musk wants Tesla vehicles to run on an AI system that learns by watching people drive. Experts say Tesla’s imitation learning-based approach to building fully autonomous driving systems needs AI breakthroughs that may not be achieved for some time.

Beyond the Finish Line: Bridging the Gap Between the Olympics and the Paralympics
With over 4,000 athletes in 22 sports, Paralympic athletes have proved they’re fierce competitors. Although the 2024 Paralympic Games is set to be record-breaking in terms of viewership and athletic world records, high-performance funding for Paralympic athletes is limited. Since Jacobs, both Olympians and Paralympians choose to get Olympic ring tattoos, but the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and the IPC created a rule stating that Paralympians had to cover their Olympic ring tattoos. Having the Olympic ring tattoo, however, is an important aspect of many Olympic and Paralympic athletes' time at the games. With the Paralympics already underway, Olympic ring tattoos will be displayed proudly as Paralympians compete for the ultimate glory of a Paralympic medal.

Here's How TV Shows Tell Actors Their Character's Going To Die, And It's More Brutal Than I Thought
Mine is Edie Britt’s horrific Desperate Housewives demise, which reportedly reflected the actor’s real-life relationship with the show’s creator Marc Cherry. AdvertisementSo, when a listener to insider showbiz podcast The Rest Is Entertainment asked the hosts Marina Hyde and Richard Osman how TV shows tell actors their character is being killed off, I shouldn’t have been shocked to learn it can be somewhat abrupt. Journalist Marina Hyde said that in these cases, some actors are even given a say in their characters’ deaths. “You don’t really want to tell them because they can’t keep a spoiler,” she continued. Advertisement“When shows become very, very big... you can’t necessarily trust people not to say something,” the journalist claimed.

I Was Having Sex With An Old Hookup. Midway Through, I Discovered He Was A Trump Supporter.
Over our years of knowing each other, Layaway Man had waved the occasional red flag. We met in the lead-up to the 2016 election, and I knew he did not like Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump. I finally asked, “You’re not voting for Donald Trump, are you?” A smile spread across his face. He shrugged coyly, pursed his lips together as if to say, “I dunno, mayyyyyyyyybe,” meaning, definitely, yes, he was voting for Donald Trump. Instead, I’m hoping to come across a guy who gives me the feelings in my body Layaway Man once did, but the feelings in my heart and my brain that only a Kamala supporter could.

Denny’s is closing 150 restaurants
Denny’s (DENN) is closing 150 restaurants over the next year, and the 71-year-old diner chain is mulling a major change to its 24/7 operating hours. A specific list of closing restaurants weren’t immediately announced. Since the pandemic, about a quarter of its restaurants have not returned to those around-the-clock hours, so Denny’s is easing up on the requirement for a franchise to do so. Denny’s joins a broader trend of restaurants slashing hours since the pandemic. Denny’s (DENN) shares dropped 17% Tuesday after earnings missed analysts’ expectations.
