Quick Glance: Magnitude 4.8 Earthquake Rocks New York City and Northeast US
- An unusual East Coast earthquake startled millions from New York to rural New England. Over 42 million people may have felt the midmorning quake with a preliminary magnitude of 4.8.
- While causing no widespread damage, the earthquake led to evacuations in Newark, New Jersey, and infrastructure inspections across the region. Flights were diverted, trains slowed, and tunnel traffic stopped.
- Although no major damages were reported, the earthquake caused some disruptions. The area near the epicenter experienced minor effects, including the collapse of a historic site. There were also over a dozen aftershocks reported in the region.
- President Joe Biden offered assistance, while New York City reported no major safety or infrastructure issues. Engineers emphasized that New York skyscrapers are made of high-strength materials and designed to sway slowly to withstand impacts. Even the delicately placed eggs in a sculpture at a Chinatown art gallery remained unharmed during the quake.

bostonglobe.com/2024/04/02/business/forbes-billionaires-2024-massachusetts/
Quick Glance: Billionaires Profiting from AI 2024
- The AI gold rush has led to a plethora of new billionaires in the sector, as surging values for both public and private companies with ties to AI have skyrocketed.
- Over the past year, tech companies, both new and old, have seen massive share price increases, making the world's tech tycoons even richer and introducing over a dozen new AI billionaires into the Forbes World's Billionaires list.
- Nvidia cofounder and CEO Jensen Huang serves as the poster child for this boom. However, other companies like Super Micro Computer, Advanced Micro Devices, and Cloudflare also benefited from the trend. Privately owned AI companies have also gained momentum, with AI-centric startups alone raising nearly $50 billion in funding last year.
- Major tech giants like Microsoft, Amazon, and Alphabet have significantly contributed to financing private AI companies to compete in the AI race. However, it remains to be seen if and when the AI bubble will burst and funding could dry up.

- Covering a distance of four miles, which is over three times longer than a standard Olympic race, the event stands as one of the oldest amateur sporting competitions globally.
- Leading up to this year's event, concerns arose regarding the weather and high levels of bacterial contamination in the River Thames, yet the competition commenced under sunny skies with thousands of spectators present along the course.
- Maintaining their dominance, Cambridge secures wins of 87-81 in the men's races and 48-30 in the women's races against Oxford.
