• What the Fed’s December interest rate cut means for your wallet

    The federal funds rate will affects mortgages for American homebuyers.

    • The Federal Reserve cut rates for the third time this year at its final 2025 meeting.
    • A rate cut could lower borrowing costs for mortgages and credit cards, bringing relief to consumers.
    • The central bank penciled in one cut for 2026.

    The Federal Reserve made its final decision of 2025, cutting interest rates for the third meeting in a row — and it set the tone for where interest rates will go in the new year.

    The call will have ripple effects across consumer prices, the job market, and Corporate America through 2026 and beyond. Here's how the decision will affect you.

    Thirty-year fixed mortgages, two-year auto loans, and credit card rates tend to fluctuate alongside the federal funds rate. And, while inflation remains above the Fed's 2% goal, mortgage rates have largely cooled in recent months in anticipation of rate reductions.

    window.addEventListener(“message”,function(a){if(void 0!==a.data[“datawrapper-height”]){var e=document.querySelectorAll(“iframe”);for(var t in a.data[“datawrapper-height”])for(var r,i=0;r=e[i];i++)if(r.contentWindow===a.source){var d=a.data[“datawrapper-height”][t]+”px”;r.style.height=d}}});

    A quarter-point cut could mean lower returns on investment for savers using high-yield savings accounts or certificates of deposit, though it would become cheaper to pay off credit cards. Lower rates would also make home equity lines and small business loans more accessible to Americans.

    Elizabeth Renter, senior economist at NerdWallet, told Business Insider the cut could be a positive sign for people applying to roles in the sluggish labor market: If job seekers "hear that the Fed is responding to an unfavorable labor market, that's going to feel good to them; they may feel like relief is on the horizon," she said.

    The labor market has shown signs of weakness in recent months. Job seekers of all ages have told Business Insider that they've been through grueling application cycles without an offer, while recruiters are drowning in resumés. Over the summer, the number of Americans looking for work eclipsed the number of available jobs and labor force participation has been trending downward. The unemployment rate, however, is still relatively low, hovering a little above 4% for most of this year.

    Sustained rate cuts would bolster the job market by making it easier for businesses to borrow and invest money. This would free up more funds for companies to hire and pay employees, which could lead to higher consumer spending — all factors needed for a healthy economy.

    And lower interest rates are historically good news for the stock market. When it's cheaper to borrow money and approve loans, both companies and individuals are more likely to invest. With more funds in the market, Wall Street could see a boost in 2026.

  • The Navy says AI cut a 160-hour submarine-planning job down to just 10 minutes — now it’s investing $448 million to go bigger

    A black submarine is docked in dark water surrounded by concrete walls. There are cranes in the background.
    After an initial focus on submarine shipbuilders and shipyards, the AI program will expand to surface ship programs.

    • The Navy's investing almost half a billion dollars on a new, Palatir-powered AI system for shipbuilding.
    • Ship OS sped up the workflow for submarine jobs.
    • This capability is starting with private and public yards and will steadily expand into other shipbuilding programs.

    The Navy is pouring hundreds of millions of dollars into an artificial intelligence system that it says has sped up key shipbuilding processes.

    In one case, the AI cut painstaking processes of submarine schedule planning — mapping out how the many pieces of construction fit together and making sure people, parts, and yard space are available at the right time — from many hours to only minutes.

    The Navy is launching the new Shipbuilding Operating System, or Ship OS, as it tries to break out of decades-old shipbuilding problems rooted in outdated technologies and work practices. The service announced a $448 million investment Thursday, saying it will accelerate the adoption of AI and autonomy across the industrial base.

    The Ship OS technology is powered by Palantir's Foundry and Artificial Intelligence Platform and began in pilot programs at submarine shipyards.

    At General Dynamics Electric Boat, a long-time submarine yard located in Connecticut, submarine schedule planning saw a dramatic reduction from 160 manual hours down to under 10 minutes. And at Portsmouth Naval Shipyard in Maine, material review times for submarines went from taking weeks to under an hour.

    The $448 million investment will go toward the submarine industrial base and then expand. It'll be deployed across two major shipbuilders, three public yards, and 100 suppliers, Palantir said in a press release.

    A black submarine sits in dark blue water. People stand on top of the submarine. A boat sits in the water nearby. There is a line of barren trees in the background and a blue, cloudy sky.
    General Dynamics Electric Boat, a shipbuilder who tested the AI pilot, saw major decreases in time for submarine scheduling.

    "This investment provides the resources our shipbuilders, shipyards, and suppliers need to modernize their operations and succeed in meeting our nation's defense requirements," said Navy Secretary John Phelan in a statement.

    "By enabling industry to adopt AI and autonomy tools at scale, we're helping the shipbuilding industry improve schedules, increase capacity, and reduce costs," he added, explaining "this is about doing business smarter and building the industrial capability our Navy and nation require."

    Maritime Industrial Base Program, a Navy initiative to revitalize US shipbuilding and repair capabilities, and Naval Sea Systems Command are overseeing the implementation of Ship OS. Both are gathering data from multiple sources to identify where the hiccups are in submarine shipbuilding, how the processes, including engineering, can be sped up, and what specific risks can be mitigated through technology.

    Problems in the Navy’s submarine industrial base — from shipbuilders to the repair yards — have been building for decades. Submarines are central to any Pacific fight and a top Pentagon priority, yet major programs like the upgraded Virginia-class submarines and new Columbia-class ballistic missile subs have repeatedly run into delays and cost overruns.

    The Government Accountability Office, a government watchdog agency, has documented long-standing problems in the Navy's plans for purchasing and constructing submarines, as well as shipyard deficiencies such as worker inexperience, aging facilities and equipment, and inadequate construction space.

    The introduction of the new Ship OS capability aims to address some of these problems facing US submarine shipbuilding. And once the technology has been used for the submarine programs, the Navy said, it'll apply lessons and adapt them to surface ship programs.

  • Instead of downsizing, I moved into a bigger home at 74. My grandkids love the extra space, and family visits are finally fun.

    • While many people downsize as they age, 75-year-old New Yorker Laurence Gerowitz did the opposite.
    • In 2024, he and his wife swapped their small apartment for a larger condo on the Upper East Side.
    • Now they have more living space and fun for their grandkids, who love the building's many playrooms.

    This as-told-to essay is based on a conversation with 75-year-old Laurence Gerowitz, a real estate litigator, about his move into a larger condo in New York City. This conversation has been edited for length and clarity.

    I lived on the Upper East Side for most of my adult life: about 48 years, starting in the late 1970s. My wife and I bought into a co-op on 85th Street in 1999 for $265,000 and lived on the third floor of the five-story walk-up.

    Our apartment was 1,200 square feet and had a very nice layout, as well as a working fireplace. The building had no amenities whatsoever, but we were still very happy to be there. We lived there for 25 years and essentially raised our son in that apartment.

    In 2008, he moved to Villanova, Pennsylvania — near Philadelphia — for college, and over the years it became clear he was never moving back to New York. He's now married and they live there with their two young children.

    New York suits me just fine, but not so much for my son — between the impossible parking and our three-story walk-up, he wasn't interested.

    I understand why. When he used to visit, I'd have to go downstairs to help him haul everything up. We did have two bedrooms, which is a luxury in Manhattan, but there still wasn't a comfortable place for him and his family to sleep, and I'd end up on a blow-up mattress.

    It was just untenable; they didn't enjoy visiting.

    It was time for something new

    About two years ago, my wife noticed that a new complex was being built around the corner from us called the Harper. She's a painter and interior decorator, so she wanted to take a look.

    We toured a two-bedroom apartment, which we thought was very nice, but it was also small. Still, we thought the building's amenities were fantastic. They have a gym, music room, game room, playroom, and creative studio — which we thought would be great for our grandkids.

    We sat with the idea for a while. A couple of months later, we went back to see a larger unit — a model of about 1,853 square feet with an 80-square-foot terrace and three bedrooms, one of which could be used as an office.

    After that tour, it didn't take us long to decide to move to the Harper. In the end, it took a couple of months to stage our old co-op, and then a few more months to sell.

    We have more space and activities for the kids here

    The best things I've ever done in my life are being a good father and grandfather. My son texts or calls me at least once a day, and that's my proudest accomplishment — even more than being admitted to the bar at 48 after going to night school for four years while supporting a family.

    A big reason we decided to upsize and buy the condo was that my wife and I love being around my son and his family, and we really wanted to create a place where the kids would want to come visit.

    We moved into the Harper in March 2024. It's just around the corner from our old place. It wasn't a far move, but we've spent decades living on the Upper East Side for a reason — we love the neighborhood.

    Our new condo has a really well-thought-out layout. We have three bedrooms, including a home office, and two-and-a-half bathrooms. When you walk in, you can turn left into one wing, down that hall are the primary closet, the primary bedroom and bathroom, and the terrace.

    If you go to the right instead, a quick left takes you into the kitchen and great room. Further to the right are the guest bedroom and bathroom, a third bedroom that I use as my office, and a small laundry area.

    Besides having a larger apartment and living in a building that actually has an elevator, we're especially happy about the amenities. It's such a contrast to our old place, where the only extra space was the boiler room.

    Our grandkids especially love the building's music room. They can bang on the drums, sing into the microphone, and strum a guitar. There's also a playroom with a ball pit.

    In the beginning, whenever the grandkids would come over, they would go down to the ball pit three times a day. In the mornings, I'd have to plead with them to finish their breakfast before heading down to play.

    It's obvious they love visiting our new home. The grandkids talk about it all the time, and it's cute to see them arrive, dragging their little suitcases, already excited to play.

    Our family enjoys visiting, it's not an obligation

    I have very fond memories of our old place — it was the first home I ever bought. But over time, living there became stressful.

    I was on the board, constantly worrying about the building — especially whether the boiler would work. It was an older property with no central air, just radiators, so there were always issues with the heat.

    Here at the Harper, it's a completely different experience. Everything works, we have three separate HVAC zones that you can set to the exact degree, and the staff is great. My biggest dilemma now is whether to go to my gym on 91st Street or just head downstairs.

    I think upsizing later in life is a good thing if you're in a position where it makes sense for you.

    If it's within your means to make that choice, do it. You're not just gaining more physical space; you're also giving yourself and your family more options.

    When my son and his family visit, they have their own rooms and are well taken care of. I think they genuinely enjoy coming now; it no longer feels like an obligation.

  • Is the Qantas share price a buy today?

    Man sitting in a plane seat works on his laptop.

    The Qantas Airways Ltd (ASX: QAN) share price has dropped close to 20% since its 2025 peak, as the chart below shows. When a large business has fallen that far, I think it’s a great time to consider an investment as a buy-the-dip opportunity.

    As the last five years have demonstrated, there can be significant volatility in the valuation of a business like this. Travel demand is not a certain thing year to year, and fuel prices can change significantly, so it’s no wonder that investors’ thoughts on the business can change quite significantly over 12 months.

    In August, the business delivered a strong set of results. Underlying profit before tax increased 15% to $2.39 billion, and statutory net profit after tax (NPAT) jumped 28%. It also revealed an improvement in both Qantas and Jetstar on-time performance and customer satisfaction scores.

    Pleasingly, this strong level of profit helped the business pay total dividends of $800 million to shareholders for FY25. Let’s take a look at whether the Qantas share price is an attractive buy today or not.

    What’s the outlook for earnings?

    The broker UBS recently said in a note that the Australian international market is expected to grow FY26 capacity by 9% year over year, with consistent growth across both peak Australian summer months and off-peak.

    Qantas and Jetstar reportedly represent only 26% of the Australian international market, but are also growing capacity strongly. UBS suggested that unless there’s strong growth of passenger demand, this may have an impact on market fares or (plane) load factors.

    Qantas is adding capacity to mainland US, New Zealand, Singapore, and Hawaii routes. Jetstar is adding capacity to Bali, New Zealand, Thailand, South Korea, and Singapore routes. Jetstar is also entering the Philippines.

    UBS suggests the Australia-US market is “heavily underserved”, but New Zealand and Bali look like more competitive routes. The bulk of new foreign capacity is being added from the Middle East, Turkey, China, Hong Kong, and Malaysia, suggesting UK and Europe routes may be becoming more competitive for Qantas.

    But, UBS expects that Qantas’ core customers (corporate and premium leisure) will be “relatively loyal”, though price-sensitive travellers “pose more risk”.

    The broker is forecasting that Qantas’ group international revenue per available seat kilometre (RASK) can grow 3% in the FY26 second half, with the airline guiding RASK for between 2% to 3% growth in the FY26 first half.

    Is the Qantas share price a buy?

    UBS wrote:

    We think QAN’s challenge is not so much competitor pressure, but whether the core Australian customers will grow with it. So far, FY26 has been tracking well.

    It has a buy rating on the business, with a price target of $11.50. That implies a possible rise of more than 17% in the next year from where it is today. For FY26, UBS predicts that Qantas could deliver $1.79 billion in net profit and a dividend per share of 35 cents.

  • Beyoncé and Jeff Bezos are among the big names involved in the 2026 Met Gala. Here’s everything we know so far.

    Beyoncé attends the 2016 Met Gala.
    Beyoncé is among the co-chairs of the 2026 Met Gala.

    • The 2026 Met Gala will be here before you know it.
    • The event's theme is "Costume Art," though a dress code hasn't been announced yet.
    • Beyoncé, Nicole Kidman, and Venus Williams will co-chair the gala with Anna Wintour.

    The 2026 Met Gala will be here before you know it.

    Fondly known as fashion's biggest night, the Met Gala is an annual fundraiser that supports the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute and is hosted by the museum, Anna Wintour, and Vogue.

    It's always held on the first Monday in May, which will be May 4, 2026. Celebrities descend on New York City in droves for the event, showcasing their most high-fashion looks of the year on the iconic steps of the Met.

    The 2026 event will support the museum's "Costume Art" exhibition, and a slew of A-list stars will serve as co-chairs for the gala.

    Here's everything we know about the 2026 Met Gala so far.

    Celebrating 'Costume Art'

    The Met Gala has a different theme each year, centered on the exhibition the Costume Institute displays in conjunction with the gala.

    For 2026, the museum will host the "Costume Art" exhibition, curated by Andrew Bolton, as announced in November 2025.

    "Celebrate fashion as an art form this spring at The Met," an Instagram post about the exhibit from the museum read. "Focusing primarily on Western art from prehistory to the present, the show will explore artistic representations of the dressed body, pairing fashions and artworks from the Museum's vast collection to highlight the inherent relationship between clothing and the body."

    In a press release shared on Wednesday, Bolton said of the exhibit, "I wanted to focus on the centrality of the dressed body within the museum, connecting artistic representations of the body with fashion as an embodied art form."

    The exhibition will also be the first to be held in the museum's new, almost 12,000-square-foot Condé M. Nast Galleries.

    Beyoncé makes her return to the Met Gala

    The exhibit and its adjacent gala have been funded this year by Saint Laurent, Condé Nast, and Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez Bezos.

    The couple made their first appearance together at the 2024 event, during which Sánchez Bezos walked the carpet solo in an Oscar de la Renta gown and later met up with the Amazon founder inside.

    But they're not the only stars who will be influential to the 2026 gala.

    Each year, a different set of co-chairs partners with Wintour on the event, and for 2026, she turned to some of the most famous women on the planet to bring the event to life.

    Venus Williams, Nicole Kidman, and Beyoncé — who last attended the Met Gala in 2016 — will serve as co-chairs for 2026, as Vogue announced on Wednesday. Kidman and Williams have been frequent attendees of the event in recent years.

    In addition, Zoë Kravitz and Anthony Vaccarello, the creative director of YSL, are heading up the Host Committee, where they will work with a slew of stars.

    Sabrina Carpenter at the 2024 Met Gala.

    They include musicians such as Doja Cat, Sabrina Carpenter, Sam Smith, Teyana Taylor, and Lisa, as well as actors like Gwendoline Christie, Lena Dunham, and Elizabeth Debicki.

    Models Alex Consani, Paloma Elsesser, Lauren Wasser, and Yseult are also included, as are athletes Misty Copeland and A'ja Wilson.

    Chloe Malle, the new top editor of Vogue, and artist Anna Weyant will also join the committee.

    Vogue has never shared many details regarding the group's duties, but they're confirmed to attend a special dinner before the gala.

    There's no dress code — yet

    Vogue, nor the Metropolitan Museum, has yet to announce a dress code for the 2026 Met Gala. However, it will likely be connected to the themes of the exhibition itself.

    In past years, for example, attendees have worn costume-like pieces for the "Camp: Notes on Fashion" event, Chanel designs for the gala that honored designer Karl Lagerfeld, and pieces with religious nods for the "Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination" gala.

  • CEO of Chinese robotics company posts video of himself getting kicked by his robot in effort to combat skeptics

    The EngineAI T800 is pictured.
    EngineAI's T800 practiced its jabs and kicks on a punching bag.

    • EngineAI posted a video of its CEO, Zhao Tongyang, being kicked in the stomach by its T800 robot.
    • The Chinese company raised $180.69 million earlier this month, per PitchBook, and is one of several players in humanoid robots.
    • Other competitors include Tesla and Boston Dynamics.

    In a video posted to Instagram, EngineAI CEO Zhao Tongyang geared up in leg, stomach, and head pads. Workers taunted him, asking if he was nervous.

    The company's T800 robot then appeared to kick Tongyang in the stomach, and he can be seen falling to the ground.

    "Too violent!" Tongyang said in a translation. "Too brutal!"

    The video featuring its CEO came after EngineAI posted a separate video of its humanoid robot doing kicks and flips. Online skeptics made accusations that the bot in the video was CGI, so the company's next video showed the robot landing a kick to the CEO's stomach.

    In a comment under its latest video, EngineAI wrote that the startup was "curious" what it felt like for the T800 to kick someone, so they did an "experiment" to find out.

    The video has since amassed over 17,000 likes on Instagram. The first video, which was accused of being CGI, has over 42,000 likes. It is unclear whether EngineAI's T800 was tele-operated or moved independently.

    EngineAI raised $180.69 million in December 2025, per PitchBook, in a funding round led by Chinese investment groups HPR Capital, Tsinghua Holdings Capital, and Henan Investment Group.

    "In 2026, the Zhongqing team will fully promote the scenario-based verification and large-scale deployment of the product," EngineAI commented on one of the videos. "It will empower industrial upgrading with technological strength and reshape a new ecosystem of human-robot coexistence."

    Morgan Stanley released a list of the 25 companies it predicted would dominate the humanoid robotics market, ranging from Nvidia to Sony. The investment bank estimated the market will be worth more than $5 trillion by 2050. EngineAI was not included on Morgan Stanley's list.

    Tesla's Optimus robot has also thrown some kicks and jabs. On the red carpet of "Tron: Ares," Optimus performed Kung Fu with actor Jared Leto. On his third-quarter earnings call, CEO Elon Musk said that "nobody was controlling" the robot.

    Tele-operation is still common in humanoid robots. Neo, the laundry-folding and dishwasher-filling robot that went viral on X, still requires the control of a human outside the residence as it works on training it to perform more autonomous tasks.

    Many Optimus bots from Tesla are tele-operated, including the ones that were bartending at an event last year. The company is moving away from tele-operation-based training and toward collecting data using only cameras, Business Insider reported in August.

  • Every Nobel Peace Prize winner in history

    María Corina Machado nobel peace prize ceremony
    Ana Corina Sosa, the daughter of this year's honoree, María Corina Machado, accepted on her mother's behalf.

    • The Nobel Peace Prize has been recognizing global strides in peace-making since 1901.
    • Famous recipients range from the Dalai Lama to Barack Obama.
    • The 2025 winner is María Corina Machado, a Venezuelan politician and activist.

    It's been 124 years since the first Nobel Peace Prize was handed out to one of the cofounders of the Red Cross and the founder of the first French Peace Society.

    Since then, activists, politicians, diplomats, authors, humanitarian organizations, and political prisoners from across the world have been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.

    This year's winner, María Corina Machado, is the leader of the democracy movement in Venezuela, which is under autocratic rule. Her daughter, Ana Corina Sosa, attended the ceremony in Oslo on Wednesday and accepted on Machado's behalf.

    Here's who has won the Nobel Peace Prize every year it has been awarded, from 1901 to 2025.

    Shelby Slauer and Melina Glusac contributed to a prior version of this article.

    1901: Henry Dunant and Frédéric Passy

    Dunant and Passy split the very first Nobel Peace Prize between the two of them.

    Dunant won for founding the International Committee of the Red Cross in 1863. Passy received the honor for founding the first French Peace Society (Société Française pour l'arbitrage entre nations) in 1878.

    1902: Élie Ducommun and Charles Albert Gobat
    1902 nobel peace prize winners

    Ducommun mainly won for his work at the International Peace Bureau, at which he served as the honorary secretary-general, but the Nobel Prize website states that, in his spare time, he "prepared programs for international peace congresses, published resolutions, and corresponded with promoters of peace."

    Gobat won "for his efforts to bring popularly elected representatives from various countries together at meetings and congresses." He also knew Ducommun well — when he died, Gobat took over as the secretary-general for the International Peace Bureau.

    1903: William Randal Cremer

    English politician, pacifist and trade unionist Sir William Randal Cremer (1938 – 1908), winner of the Nobel peace prize in 1903.

    Cremer was nicknamed the "Master of Arbitration," which is why he received the award. Through his work with the International Arbitration League, he sought to solve conflicts through discussion, not war.

    1904: Institute of International Law
    founders of the international law office

    The Institute of International Law, a nongovernmental organization based in Belgium, received the 1904 Nobel Peace Prize due to its success in persuading countries to use arbitration to deal with conflict, and for convincing countries to accept the rules of law during wartime.

    1905: Bertha von Suttner
    Bertha von Suttner
    Baroness Bertha von Suttner (1843 – 1914), winner of the 1905 Nobel Peace Prize for her work as President of the Permanent International Peace Bureau, circa 1890. She was the author of the anti-war novel 'Lay Down Your Arms'.

    Von Suttner was the first woman to be awarded a Nobel Peace Prize. She won for her work with the Austrian Peace Society, which she established in 1891. She also wrote one of the most influential anti-war novels, "Lay Down Your Arms," in 1889.

    1906: Theodore Roosevelt

    Moneta founded the Lombard Association for Peace and Arbitration in 1887, which believed in disarmament. He also edited the newspaper Il Secolo, which regularly called for pacifism.

    Renault was a professor of international law. He spoke at numerous conferences, including two peace conferences at The Hague, where he solidified his place as a prominent figure in the arbitration movement. Renault was also the French government's advisor in foreign policy and international law.

    1908: Klas Pontus Arnoldson and Fredrik Bajer
    nobel peace prize 1908 winners

    Arnoldson won the Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts to reconcile Norway and Sweden. He also founded the Swedish Peace and Arbitration League.

    Bajer founded the Danish Interparliamentary Group in 1891 and was a lifelong believer in peace and arbitration. He's also been credited with laying the groundwork for the International Peace Bureau.

    1909: Auguste Beernaert and Paul Henri d'Estournelles de Constant

  • I flew overseas for a festival. I don’t regret my trip, but I wouldn’t travel like this again.

    A shot of the Afro Nation stage in Portugal.
    caption TK

    • This summer, I traveled to Portugal for a three-day music festival.
    • I loved the music, but felt disappointed that I didn't actually get to see Portugal.
    • The experience made me feel like I couldn't really check the country off my travel bucket list.

    Tourism in Portugal has reached record numbers over the past two years, with over 31 million visitors in 2024.

    Although the coastal wonders of the Algarve region and the historic castles of Sintra are often a selling point for tourists, I took the seven-hour trip for reasons unrelated to wanderlust.

    Portimão, Portugal, is the home of Afro Nation, the biggest annual Afrobeats festival in the world — and this summer, I was one of the 40,000 festival-goers in attendance.

    Though dancing on the stunning beaches of Portugal to the sounds of Burna Boy and Tems live was definitely a bucket-list experience that I wouldn't have traded for the world, I'm not sure it's one I would repeat.

    Don't get me wrong: This realization had nothing to do with a lackluster experience. There is nothing dull about being serenaded by a shirtless Damini, and there was nothing disappointing about Portugal, either.

    Instead, I left feeling like I hadn't visited Portugal at all, but rather that I attended an event that just happened to be there.

    I feel like I missed an opportunity to actually explore a new country

    A short of the water and coast of Portimão, Portugal.
    If I were to return to Afro Nation, I'd make sure to bake in time to explore Portugal.

    Somewhere between day two and day three, it hit me: I was in Portugal, but I wasn't really seeing the country.

    My days weren't spent wandering tiled alleyways or eating salted cod by the water. Instead, I spent all my downtime resting at my resort, ordering food, getting dressed, and then heading back onto the beach — not for a swim, but for another 12 hours of music.

    The experience wasn't exactly cheap, either. Aside from the nearly $600 I spent on the festival tickets, food and drinks were expensive at the venue, and rideshare trips cost more than I'd planned on spending, probably due to the crowds.

    I don't regret what I spent on the experience, but I did find myself thinking about what it would have been like to spend that money at a Lisbon flea market or on a cooking class, learning how to make pastel de nata from a local.

    By the last day of the festival, I had a realization: This wasn't the trip I thought I signed up for. I was in Portugal, sure, but I could've been anywhere.

    The beach could've been in Miami. The resort could've been in Cancún. The only Portuguese thing about my trip was the exchange rate.

    I did have two days after the festival ended to explore Lisbon, but it wasn't nearly enough time. I was exhausted after three days of standing on my feet and singing along, and after all of the rideshares we had purchased, both my feet and my wallet needed a break.

    Once I got home, I noticed that my Instagram feed was flooded with other people's Portugal trips: sunsets on sailboats in Portimão, wine in Porto, mist hanging over Sintra's castles.

    I felt like they'd gotten to see Portugal. I'd gotten to see a festival that happened to be hosted there.

    The experience taught me a lesson about how I'll travel in the future

    I don't regret my trip — Afro Nation itself was unforgettable. I loved the music, the chaos, the feeling of being surrounded by a global community all singing Burna Boy under the same sky.

    In an ideal world, I'd be able to go back to Afro Nation with an extra three or four days to actually roam. However, extra days meant extra costs for food, accommodations, and the experiences I was so desperate to have — and unfortunately, I didn't have unlimited PTO.

    I learned that my idea of a perfect trip doesn't center on an international festival or specific experience. I don't want to cross an ocean just to stand in a crowd.

    My version of travel definitely includes sun, sand, and bottomless drinks, but also curiosity. I want to wander, learn, and actually see where I am.

    I'd say that Portugal is still on my travel bucket list — though I went, I barely touched it. Next time, I'm not going for a stage on the beach. I'm going for the country.

    • Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet recently made their second red carpet appearance as a couple.
    • They reportedly met in early 2023 at Paris Fashion Week and sparked romance rumors shortly after.
    • Jenner and Chalamet have since attended awards shows together and sat courtside at NBA games.

    Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet may seem like an unexpected celebrity pairing, but the confusion appears to work in their favor: The reality star and Oscar-nominated actor have been dating for about two years and counting.

    Here's everything we know about their relationship so far, from secret taco dates to red carpet photo ops.

    Representatives for Jenner and Chalamet have not responded to requests for comment from Business Insider.

    Caralynn Matassa and Palmer Haasch contributed to an earlier version of this story.

    January 2023: Jenner and Chalamet reportedly meet during Paris Fashion Week

    A video of Jenner and Chalamet from January, which showed them interacting during Paris Fashion Week, resurfaced in April as the dating rumors gained momentum. According to People, the video was taken at Jean Paul Gaultier's Paris Fashion Week show.

    Earlier that same month, news broke that Jenner had once again split from Travis Scott, the father of her two children, Stormi and Aire — although an anonymous source told People it was "probably not the end" of Jenner and Scott's famously on-again, off-again relationship.

    Chalamet, for his part, had most recently been linked to model Sarah Talabi in 2022 and actor Eiza González in 2020.

    March 27, 2023: The two reportedly attend a dinner with Kendall Jenner and Bad Bunny

    Shortly before the Kymothée relationship rumors took the internet by storm, Page Six reported on March 27 that Jenner's sister, Kendall Jenner, and Kendall's then-rumored boyfriend, Bad Bunny, were photographed leaving a club together in West Hollywood, California.

    The Page Six report mentioned in passing that Kendall and Bad Bunny had dinner "alongside other A-Listers — including her sister, Kylie Jenner, and Timothée Chalamet," among others.

    April 6, 2023: DeuxMoi posts about Jenner and Chalamet dating rumors

    On April 6, 2023, pop-culture gossip curator DeuxMoi posted an anonymous fan submission claiming that "multiple sources" had told them that Chalamet "has a new girl… Kylie Jenner." The anonymous sender added two coffin emojis.

    DeuxMoi soon followed that up with submissions from other readers who claimed they could confirm the news. One anonymous source told Deuxmoi that they'd known about the pairing since Paris Fashion Week in January, suggesting that the relationship may have begun then.

     The internet had a collective meltdown over the unexpected news, with some commenters saying they refused to believe that Jenner and Chalamet, who seem to run in very different social circles, had ever even met.

    April 7, 2023: Jenner and Chalamet eat tacos in a car together

    Page Six and TMZ published photos from paparazzi agency Splash News, which allegedly showed Jenner and Chalamet having a "secret date night" at Tito's Tacos, a restaurant outside Los Angeles.

    Page Six reported that Jenner picked Chalamet up in her car after he attended an art show. One of Jenner's security guards then apparently drove Chalamet's car, which followed Jenner's car, to Tito's Tacos. At that point, Jenner's team hopped out and brought tacos back to the car, according to TMZ.

    Despite the complicated car-swap situation, Jenner's face wasn't photographed during the alleged date.

    April 13, 2023: Jenner's car is spotted at Chalamet's house

    On April 13, TMZ published photos from paparazzi agency Backgrid showing a black car, which they identified as Jenner's black Range Rover SUV, in the driveway of a house, which they identified as Chalamet's Beverly Hills, California, estate.

    Page Six noted that the SUV had tinted windows and Jenner was never actually photographed inside the car, so it's unclear whether she was in it. The Daily Mail reported that the black SUV "arrived around 10 a.m. and left mere minutes later," followed by a "blacked out security Escalade."

    Jenner famously collects luxury cars, and she has shown a preference for Range Rovers in the past.

    Representatives for Chalamet and Jenner didn't respond to requests for comment from TMZ, the Daily Mail, and Page Six at the time of the reports.

    April 2023: Sources say Jenner and Chalamet are dating, but just casually

    Entertainment Tonight and People separately cited sources confirming the casual romance.

    On April 14, People reported that "a source close to 'The Kardashians' star" confirmed that Jenner and Chalamet were "hanging out and getting to know each other." (Representatives for Jenner and Chalamet didn't respond to People's request for comment at the time.)

    Entertainment Tonight reported similar information from a source.

    "They are keeping things casual at this point. It's not serious, but Kylie is enjoying hanging out with Timothée and seeing where it goes," said Entertainment Tonight's source in a story published April 17. "It's been really fun for her because it feels a lot different than her past relationships. It's new and exciting for Kylie and she's having a lot of fun."

    The two both attended Coachella mid-month but avoided being photographed together, Page Six reported.

    According to ET's report, Jenner may have met Chalamet through her sister. "Timothée is also friends with Kendall, so it's been easy for Kylie to integrate him into her life," the source said.

    People reported on April 19 that a source close to Jenner said she and Chalamet "hang out every week." They added that Jenner is "having fun" and "wants to date without any pressure" after her on-and-off relationship with Scott.

    Since reports of their relationship broke, fans had been speculating that in true Kardashian-Jenner style, the couple would make their big public debut in a splashy spectacle on the Met Gala red carpet.

    Alas, that didn't happen. Jenner did attend the Met Gala, but she went solo, and Chalamet skipped the fashion event altogether.

    May 29, 2023: A source tells People that Chalamet and Jenner are still casually dating, but it's still not serious

    After weeks of relative silence on the Chalamet-Jenner front, a source confirmed to People that the cosmetics company founder and the "Dune" actor were enjoying each other's company, but not labeling their relationship. According to People's source, Jenner's main priority was being a mom to Stormi, then 5, and Aire, then just 15 months old.

    A few days before People published its report, Backgrid photos obtained by Page Six appeared to show the same black Range Rover (apparently Jenner's) from the April 13 sighting parked once again in the driveway of Chalamet's Beverly Hills home.

    May 2023: Jenner is spotted leaving Chalamet's home

    On June 1, Page Six reported that Jenner had been photographed leaving Chalamet's house for the first time. In the photos taken by Splash News, Jenner can be seen in the driver's seat of her black Range Rover, glancing at her phone before driving away from Chalamet's home.

    While Chalamet avoided mentioning Jenner by name, or even confirming their relationship, he told GQ's Daniel Riley that the intense scrutiny around his potential relationship reminded him of a "South Park" episode satirizing Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, in which the couple travels around the world on a "Worldwide Privacy Tour" demanding space from the public eye.

    "Sometimes, people are going to be hella confused when you say you're trying to live a private life," Chalamet said in the interview.

  • What it takes to be in a $10 million Army Stryker crew

    With over 3,000 units in service, the Stryker armored infantry carrier vehicle has become one of the most ubiquitous vehicles in the Army. Able to transport nine dismounted infantry soldiers along with the driver and vehicle commander, the Stryker features a variety of powerful weapons systems.

    Atop the Dragoon variant sits a 30 mm autocannon as well as a coaxial machine gun.With a base unit price of $5 million, the Dragoon variant requires another $5 million upgrade for its high-tech weapons system.

    Chief video correspondent Graham Flanagan embedded with the Army's 2nd Cavalry Regiment during a training exercise in southern Germany, where he got an in-depth tour of the vehicle from crew members and rode in the vehicle during a combat simulation where Strykers transported soldiers to the fight before firing on an enemy stronghold.
