The Uganda government came up with one of the world's toughest anti-LGBTQ laws, including the death penalty for ‘aggravated homosexuality’. Same-Sex relations were already illegal in Uganda, as in more than 30 African countries, but the new law goes further. It stipulates capital punishment for ‘serial offenders’ against the law and transmission of a terminal illness like HIV/AIDS through Gay Sex. Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni drew Western condemnation after signing the law.

JPMorgan CEO , Predicts Panic As US , Approaches Debt Default.
On May 11, Jamie Dimon, the CEO of JPMorgan Chase,
said that markets will be affected by panic as
the U.S. nears a potential default on its sovereign debt.
CNBC reports that Dimon called a default
"potentially catastrophic" for the U.S.
while speaking to 'Bloomberg.'.
The closer you get to it,
you will have panic, Jamie Dimon, JPMorgan CEO, via CNBC.
He also predicted that lawmakers
will be forced to take action in order
to avoid the worst-case scenario.
CNBC reports that Dimon is just one of many business
leaders and officials to predict dire consequences if
the U.S. debt limit is not raised or suspended.
If it gets to that panic point,
people have to react,
we’ve seen that before, Jamie Dimon, JPMorgan CEO, via CNBC.
Panic becomes something
that is not good. It could
affect other markets
around the world, Jamie Dimon, JPMorgan CEO, via CNBC.
Dimon stressed that a default would send shockwaves
through the financial world, and urged politicians on
both sides of the political divide to reach a compromise. .
In the wake of three financial firms' collapse, Dimon said that
while regional banks remain "quite strong," bank runs
are likely to worsen as the potential default looms closer.

IBM Stops Hiring for 7,800 Positions , That Could Be Replaced by AI.
Insider reports that IBM CEO Arvind Krishna
revealed the company's intentions to 'Bloomberg.' .
I could easily see 30% of that
getting replaced by AI and
automation over a five-year period, Arvind Krishna, IBM CEO, to 'Bloomberg'.
The cuts would mostly affect
"non-customer facing roles," Insider reports.
According to an IBM spokesperson, people who are currently in such roles won't be let go, but positions that are voluntarily vacated won't be filled.
A spokesperson for IBM issued a statement.
There is no blanket hiring 'pause' in place. IBM is being deliberate and thoughtful in our hiring with a focus on revenue-generating roles, and we're being very selective when filling jobs that don't directly touch our clients or technology. We are actively hiring for thousands of positions right now, IBM spokesperson, to Insider.
Meanwhile, IBM announced earlier this year that
it would be laying off 1.5% of its employees.
As AI capabilities, such as those of ChatGPT, have rapidly improved, labor market jobs will likely become increasingly impacted. .
According to Insider, "tech, media and legal industries" are some of the sectors to presumably be most affected.

PBS Joins NPR , in Leaving Twitter.
On April 12, NPR announced that it would stop using Twitter after being labeled "state-affiliated media" and "government-funded media" by the platform.
The labels liken NPR to state-backed outlets such as Russia's RT or China's Xinhua News.
We are not putting our journalism on platforms that have demonstrated an interest in undermining our credibility and the public’s understanding of our editorial independence, John Lansing, NPR CEO, via memo to staff.
Jason Phelps, spokesman for PBS, told 'Bloomberg' that they also have "no plans" to continue using Twitter after receiving a "government-funded media" label as well.

after asserting that the organization was hypocritical for claiming editorial independence while also pointing out its reliance on federal funding
