LVMH had a bloodbath of an earnings. But its CFO is convinced becoming
more affordable isn't the answer - Fortune Europe

Economic policies, which have also prompted consumers to pull their
purse strings right, have had ripple effects on the luxury industry.
For instance, when China indicated upcoming stimulus measures to help
revive its economy, LVMH and other luxury players saw their shares
rise in the hopes that it would end shoppers’ hesitation. But when
those promises failed to deliver, the same companies saw their shares
fall.

Tubeworms live beneath the planetary crust around deep-sea vents - The
Economist [[link removed]}&lead=419599&emailid=80468&nl=daily]
HYDROTHERMAL VENTS are the planet’s exhaust pipes. Kilometres below
the ocean surface, they relentlessly belch out searing hot water rife
with harsh chemicals from beneath Earth’s crust. When they were
first discovered in 1977, nobody expected these inhospitable sites to
bear signs of life. And yet, thriving alongside these vents were
colonies of tubeworms, mussels and clams entirely new to science. It
is hard to think of an environment that could be more hostile. Now,
however, new work is revealing evidence that these animals are raising
their young in just such a place: the fractured rocks underneath the
vents themselves.

Rethinking School Design: How Education Architecture Reflects Changing
Views on Childhood
[[link removed]}&lead=419599&emailid=80468&nl=daily]
For decades, school design was synonymous with rigidity. Rows of
identical classrooms, harsh lighting and long, narrow corridors
created environments that felt more like factories — or worse,
prisons — than places for nurturing young minds. This comparison
isn’t entirely accidental. While it may be more legend than the fact
that many schools were designed by the same architects who built
prisons, the underlying principles guiding their design were
strikingly similar. The focus was on efficiency, control and
uniformity — goals just as relevant to prisons as early educational
institutions.
