It's Tuesday, January 05, 2021. A lot of us went back to work yesterday, with a lot of us depending on work-from-home software and tools to communicate and get stuff done. Unfortunately, Slack wasn't feeling it. For anyone using the chat app in the morning hours of ET, you might have struggled to send messages. By 11:20AM, Slack was in full-blown outage, with red icons across the board on its status page.
The company eventually got the service up and running by roughly 3:30PM ET — when the workday was already winding down for most of us. Did you have to switch up your communication strategy? What worked best? Telegram? Discord? Old-fashioned ICQ? Carrier pigeon? — Mat Smith And 'Luigi's Mansion 2' on 3DS.
Next Level Games is best known for developing Luigi's Mansion 2 (aka Dark Moon) for 3DS and Luigi's Mansion 3 on the Switch. Now Nintendo is acquiring the Vancouver-based developer, saying in a statement that it will improve "development speed and quality by enabling closer communication and exchange of staff with the Nintendo development team."

It was a joint project with Berkshire Hathaway and JPMorgan Chase.Three years after Amazon started a healthcare venture with Berkshire Hathaway and JPMorgan Chase, the trio have decided to call it quits. CNBC reports that the organization, once called Haven, is disbanding, and the company will likely shut down by the end of February. The original purpose behind Haven was to find a way to reduce the rising costs of the employer-based healthcare system in the US.
