The market isn't ready for the model, he said, adding that Boeing is also not currently in a financial position to invest in the development of new planes.

Salesforce buys Moonhub, a startup building AI tools for hiring
Salesforce has quietly snapped up Moonhub, a startup building AI to vet and hire talent. The terms of the deal weren't disclosed. In a post on Moonhub's website on Monday, the company said that its entire Menlo Park, California-based team will be joining Salesforce, an early investor in Moonhub. 'As a customer and investor, Salesforce has already played a role in Moonhub's journey,' wrote Moonhub CEO Nanxy Xu in the post. 'From our earliest conversations, it [was] also clear that our companies share deep core values like customer trust, along with a resolute conviction in the role AI agents will play in unlocking an era of global innovation and opportunity. We are excited for the impact we will make together.' Salesforce is on a shopping spree. Just last week, the company completed its $8 billion acquisition of Informatica, a company providing data management solutions. And last month, Salesforce bought an automation startup, to bolster the former's AI product offerings. Moonhub, which was founded in 2022 by Xu, an ex-Meta engineer, sells a range of tools designed to help companies recruit, evaluate, and hire job candidates. Moonhub's AI can automatically identify candidates for roles, reaching out and assisting with tasks such as onboarding and payroll management. Moonhub raised $14.4 million from backers including Khosla Ventures, AIX Ventures, Day One Ventures, and GV (formerly Google Ventures) in addition to Salesforce, according to Crunchbase. The company has hundreds of customers, including Fortune 500 companies, per Xu. 'By joining Salesforce, we are accelerating our mission in this next chapter,' Xu continued in her post. 'Moonhub's talented team will play a key role in advancing Salesforce's AI strategy.'

Want to Cut Down Your Electricity Bill? Try Turning Off the Lights
As summer temperatures continue to break records each year, staying cool is more difficult than ever before. A fan or air conditioner can keep you comfortable, but it comes with a higher electric bill. With rising energy costs, you might be looking for easy ways to save money and stay on budget. Thankfully there's an easy hack that can help lower your energy bill without melting in the process. A recent CNET survey found 78% of Americans are stressed about high home energy bills. When you add the cost of rising rent, higher mortgage rates, pricier groceries and tariffs raising the cost of goods across the board, there are plenty of reasons to stress. However, even when everyday items have become more expensive, there are some ways to make your budget stretch a bit further. One of the easiest and most effective ways to save some money and reduce your energy bill is by turning off your lights when you aren't using them. Keep reading to learn why it's important to turn off the lights and how much money this simple habit can save you. For more, we also recommend investing in a smart plug or a smart thermostat, adjusting the temperature of your thermostat and weatherstripping to save extra cash.) Why should you turn off the lights? You've probably been told time and time again the importance of conserving energy, but you might be wondering why it's so important. First, reducing your energy usage by turning off your lights is an excellent way to reduce your carbon footprint. Electricity generation is one of the biggest sources of carbon emissions that contribute to climate change. By turning off your lights when you aren't using them, you can do your part to reduce carbon emissions and therefore help the environment. Second, reducing your home's energy usage doesn't just help the environment. It also helps your wallet. Turning off lights when you don't need them can help to reduce your electricity bills. You'll also extend the life of your light bulbs, which will save you money as well. Pro savings tip Buying a smart lightbulb can help you conserve energy by setting your lights to go on and off at certain times, so no more falling asleep with all the lights left on overnight. The Wiz tunable white LED smart bulb is CNET's pick for the best white-light smart bulb. Details $9 at Amazon How much money can you save? The amount you can save on your electricity bill by turning off your lights depends on the type of light bulb you use. You can figure your potential savings using the light bulb's wattage. Let's say you have a light bulb that's 40 watts, meaning in one hour, the bulb will use 0.04 kWh. Then, you can use your electricity price — which you can find on your most recent utility bill — to figure out how much you'll save for that hour. In the case of the 40-watt bulb, if you pay an electricity rate of 10 cents per kWh, your savings by turning that bulb off for one hour would be 0.4 cents. It's easy to see that number and think it's simply not worth it to turn off your lights more often. After all, what difference does 0.4 cents make? First, remember that estimate is for a 40-watt bulb. If you have higher-wattage light bulbs, the savings will be greater. Next, that estimate uses an energy price of 10 cents per kWh, but in many areas, the price of electricity may be higher than that. Finally, our estimate looked at the savings of turning off one bulb for one hour. You likely have many light bulbs in your house, and there are far more than just one hour in a month. So when you calculate the savings of turning off all of your light bulbs for many more hours per month, your savings will increase significantly. When should you turn off the lights? You can save money by turning off your lights and fans whenever you don't need them. During the spring and summer, it's a good idea to check in on the peak and off-peak energy hours in your area. Many providers use a time-of-use electricity plan where energy costs rise during peak hours, or hours where the grid is facing higher demand, and lower during off-peak hours. These hours change depending on the seasons, so transitioning between seasons is a good time to check in on when you're paying the most for energy. During peak hours, usually during the afternoons in the summer while in the early morning and in the evenings after sunset during winter, it's helpful to be especially diligent in turning off lights and other electronic appliances when you leave a room to cut down on your energy bill. Thankfully, during the spring and summer, Daylight Saving Time is in effect, which means more daylight and less need to have the lights on in your home. A small change can yield big savings Turning off the lights and other electric appliances when you aren't using them is one of the most basic steps you can take to reduce your energy usage and save money on your electricity bill. Just remember that even a small change can add up to big energy savings for you and also help reduce your carbon footprint. More money-saving tips for you
