In April 2025, Chinese automaker BYD surpassed Tesla in European electric vehicle sales for the first time, registering 7,231 units compared to Tesla's 7,165. This shift is attributed to BYD's competitively priced and technologically advanced lineup.

Tweets, TikToks, and Reddit posts exploded in outrage. As of Tuesday, Duolingo's social accounts had been wiped — no posts, no icon. Duolingo did not respond to a request for comment.And the one statement that was released by a Duolingo spokesperson, after the account went dark, did not shade much light on the situation (pun intended): “Let's just say we're experimenting with silence.

Careless People by Sarah Wynn-Williams From trips on private jets and encounters with world leaders to shocking accounts of misogyny and double standards behind the scenes, this searing memoir exposes both the personal and the political fallout when unfettered power and a rotten company culture take hold. In a gripping and often absurd narrative where a few people carelessly hold the world in their hands, this eye-opening memoir reveals what really goes on among the global elite. Sarah Wynn-Williams tells the wrenching but fun story of Facebook, mapping its rise from stumbling encounters with juntas to Mark Zuckerberg's reaction when he learned of Facebook's role in Trump's election. She experiences the challenges and humiliations of working motherhood within a pressure cooker of a workplace, all while Sheryl Sandberg urges her and others to “lean in.” Careless People is a deeply personal account of why and how things have gone so horribly wrong in the past decade—told in a sharp, candid, and utterly disarming voice. A deep, unflinching look at the role that social media has assumed in our lives, Careless People reveals the truth about the leaders of Facebook: how the more power they grasp, the less responsible they become and the consequences this has for all of us. My Name is Emilia del Valle by Isabel Allende In San Francisco 1866, an Irish nun, left pregnant and abandoned following a torrid relationship with a Chilean aristocrat, gives birth to a daughter named Emilia Del Valle. Raised by a loving stepfather, Emilia grows into an independent thinker and a self-sufficient young woman. To pursue her passion for writing, she is willing to defy societal norms. At the age of sixteen, she begins to publish pulp fiction under a man's pen name. When these fictional worlds can't contain her sense of adventure any longer, she turns to journalism, convincing an editor at the San Francisco Examiner to hire her. There she is paired with another talented reporter, Eric Whelan. As she proves herself, her restlessness returns, until an opportunity arises to cover a brewing civil war in Chile. She seizes it, along with Eric, and while there, begins to uncover the truth about her father and the country that represents her roots. But as the war escalates, Emilia finds herself in danger and at a crossroads, questioning both her identity and her destiny. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

More than four decades later, she's become one of the most beloved Spanish-language authors, with over 80 million copies of her books sold worldwide. After political exile, writing books became Allende's way of making sense of the world. She wrote through divorce, affairs, and moving across continents.

In this episode, Anna and Isabel talk about loss, late starts, and new beginnings. Isabel met her most recent husband, Roger, in her late 70s, “an age when most people are knitting for their great-grandchildren.” Allende's newest novel, “My Name Is Emilia del Valle,” is out now.  Death, Sex & Money is now produced by Slate!

Chilean novelist Isabel Allende discusses her latest novel, My Name is Emilia del Valle. The story follows a young journalist who becomes caught up in the Chilean Civil War. Isabel will be speaking at Symphony Space on May 6 at 7 pm.

Isabel Allende talks to Cheryl about being honoured with a Barbie doll in her likeness, writing during uncertain global times, and the importance of small acts of resistance and connection. Her latest novel, My Name is Emilia Del Valle, is out now. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

My Name is Emilia del Valle by Isabel Allende. Any new book from the wonderful Isabel Allende is a treat, and this is no exception. It begins in 1866 when an Irish nun becomes pregnant after an encounter with a wealthy Chilean who turns his back on them, and the baby and her mother have to fight for their place in the world. The child, Emilia del Valle, eventually becomes a writer and a journalist, and is eventually sent to cover the Chilean civil war along with a friend and colleague, Eric Whelan. There is history here as well as the romance, which makes it truly fascinating along with the romance. It was an extraordinary time. The Pretender by Jo Harkin. Set in 15th Century England at the juncture between the Plantaganets and the Tudors, this is fiction which is fun, bawdy, historically interesting and never takes itself too seriously. It tells the story of a young boy who through his lifetime is known by a series of names. Firstly, he's John Collett, growing up on a farm from which he's one day uplifted by a couple of noblemen, becoming known as Lambert Simnel and told that he is in fact the 17th Earl of Warwick and will challenge King Henry 7th for the Crown.

Her work has been translated into more than 40 languages, and 80 million copies of her books have been sold around the world. That's a lot of books.Allende's newest novel, “My Name Is Emilia del Valle” is about a dark period in Chilean history: the 1891 Chilean civil war. Like so much of Allende's work, it's a story about women in tough spots who figure out a way through. Thematically, it's not that far off from Allende's own story. She was raised in Chile, but in 1973, when she was 31, raising two small children and working as a journalist, her life was upended forever. That year a military coup pushed out the democratically elected president, Salvador Allende, who was her father's cousin. She fled to Venezuela, where she wrote “The House of the Spirits,” which evolved from a letter she had begun writing to her dying grandfather. That book became a runaway best seller and it remains one of her best-known.Allende and Book Review editor Gilbert Cruz spoke about her life and career.

Author Isabel Allende talks about her new book, "My Name is Emilia Del Valle," a historical romance set in the late 1800s about a young female journalist who goes to Chile to cover a brewing civil war. Then, author Zara Chowdhary tells her deeply personal story of growing up in India during a period of anti-Muslim violence in "The Lucky Ones." The book has just been announced as a finalist in the PEN/John Kenneth Galbraith Award for Non-Fiction. And, when his wife, the fashion designer Anna Huling, was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease in her forties, author Stephen Sicliano began documenting the beautiful settings and local trips the couple and their son took around their Southern California home. Stephen eventually turned it into a book called "Three Surfin' Safari Summers."Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

En el programa de hoy, Fernando Villegas reflexiona sobre el concepto de las dinastías, tanto políticas como artísticas, a partir del caso reciente de Isabel Allende, cesada de su cargo por el Tribunal Constitucional chileno. A propósito de ello, examina cómo ciertas familias mantienen poder o relevancia a través de generaciones, y analiza las razones sociales y culturales que hacen posible este fenómeno. Comenta ejemplos nacionales e internacionales, incluyendo a los Kennedy, los Borbones, los Habsburgo y las familias Parra y Bach, diferenciando entre la herencia de ambiente y la posible herencia genética. También destaca la funcionalidad histórica de las dinastías en monarquías para evitar guerras civiles. Cuestiona la validez de otorgar prestigio a ciertos apellidos por encima de otros y concluye que muchas veces el entorno y los incentivos del poder explican la continuidad de ciertos linajes, más que una verdadera transmisión de talento o virtud.

L'économie mondiale reste secouée par les annonces de Donald Trump. Une guerre commerciale qui a provoqué une dégringolade des indices mondiaux, toujours en baisse en Europe, en Asie ou à Sydney. Comme beaucoup de pays, Haïti devrait voir ses droits de douane augmenter de 10%, ce qui serait une catastrophe pour ce petit pays. Si le secteur de la sous-traitance textile, jusqu'ici protégé par des lois américaines exonérant les entreprises de taxes, est concerné, cela pourrait être dramatique, comme l'explique Enomy Germain, économiste haïtien. Ce sont 30.000 emplois qui sont en jeu, précise-t-il. Le secteur agricole et la petite industrie pourraient aussi être fortement touchés, s'inquiète Enomy Germain. Ayibopost s'intéresse à un conflit foncier aggravé par la circulation des armes à feuComme chaque mois, nous sommes en ligne avec nos confrères du site Ayibopost. Nous évoquons aujourd'hui avec Jérôme Wendy Norestyl son article «Les armes de guerre aggravent un conflit foncier à Montrouis». Depuis plus de 30 ans, des paysans se disputent des terres. Ce conflit a déjà fait de nombreux morts lors d'attaques à l'arme blanche essentiellement. Mais avec le développement des gangs et d'un marché illégal des armes à feu, il prend un tour différent, explique le journaliste haïtien.D'autres régions d'Haïti sont également touchées, poursuit Jérôme Wendy Norestyl qui souligne l'absence de l'État à chaque fois. «Ces problèmes de délimitation, de cadastres ne sont pratiquement pas suivis par les autorités». Une amende record pour Elon Musk ?Selon le New York Times, la Commission européenne compterait infliger une amende record à X, le réseau social propriété d'Elon Musk. Plus d'un milliard de dollars, à régler cet été. À moins que la plateforme n'accepte de changer ses méthodes. X est accusé de ne pas suffisamment lutter contre les contenus illégaux et la désinformation. L'idée est de «faire un exemple» pour inciter les autres Gafam à se plier aux règles européennes de modération, estime le New York Times. Le Costa Rica veut devenir un champion de l'IALe Costa Rica est l'un des rares États d'Amérique latine à avoir mis en place une stratégie nationale en matière d'intelligence artificielle. Un projet porté notamment par la ministre de la Science, de l'Innovation, de la Technologie et des Télécommunications, Paula Bogantes, qu'Achim Lippold a rencontrée. Le Costa Rica veut avant tout moderniser ses services publics. «Le défi, c'est de rendre l'État plus efficace dans l'utilisation de ses ressources, c'est-à-dire les impôts des citoyens. Comment faire en sorte qu'un fonctionnaire ne passe pas des heures à traiter une demande de permis de conduire ? Que les médecins passent moins de temps à rédiger des rapports administratifs sur ordinateur et plus de temps à soigner leurs patients ? Nous devons utiliser l'intelligence artificielle pour numériser notre administration publique et faire en sorte que les services publics soient plus proches des citoyens», explique Paula Bogantes. Et pour cela, il faut inclure l'espagnol dans le développement de l'IA et des chatbots car aujourd'hui, ces outils s'appuient principalement sur des sources en anglais, souligne la ministre. En Argentine, Javier Milei ne parvient à imposer ses choix à la Cour suprêmeHier (3 avril 2025), le Sénat a refusé à une large majorité de nommer les deux magistrats désignés par le président ultralibéral pour siéger à la Cour suprême. «C'est l'une des défaites législatives les plus retentissantes» enregistrées par Javier Milei depuis qu'il a pris le pouvoir il y a 16 mois, juge La Nacion. Un échec d'autant plus cuisant si l'on prend en compte «les efforts, les pressions et autres actions moins nobles» menées par le pouvoir pour tenter de faire plier le Sénat, insiste le journal. Javier Milei a réussi l'exploit de faire voter ensemble des partis politiques qui sont rarement d'accord entre eux, ironise encore La Nacion. Des partis qui ont surtout rejeté la méthode employée par le président, explique Pagina 12 : en février 2025, Javier Milei a nommé ces deux juges par décret. L'un d'entre eux a même prêté serment et siège actuellement à la Cour suprême. Selon Clarin, ce dernier devrait consulter les autres membres de la Cour suprême pour savoir s'il doit rester ou partir. Au Chili, Isabel Allende, la fille de l'ancien président, va perdre son poste de sénatriceC'est la fin d'une carrière parlementaire de plus de 30 ans, souligne La Tercera. Et c'est aussi la première fois de l'histoire du Chili que le Tribunal constitutionnel destitue un membre du Congrès, insiste El Observador. La fille de Salvador Allende, 80 ans, a violé la Constitution, explique El Mostrador. En cause : la vente ratée de la maison de son père. À la fin de l'année dernière, l'État a cherché à l'acquérir pour en faire un musée. Problème : au Chili, les parlementaires n'ont pas le droit de passer des contrats avec l'État tant qu'ils sont en poste. Tout le monde a fait marche arrière. Mais trop tard, la droite et l'extrême droite se sont emparées du dossier et ont saisi la justice. Une petite-fille de Salvador Allende, copropriétaire de la maison, a, elle aussi, perdu son poste de ministre de la Défense. Une autre ministre a également été remerciée. Au-delà d'Isabel Allende, cette affaire éclabousse la gauche. «Le Parti socialiste et toute la gauche chilienne sont frappés en plein cœur (...) Le président Gabriel Boric pourrait lui aussi être affecté,» écrit El Mostrador qui rappelle que le chef d'État a reconnu que c'est lui qui avait eu l'idée de racheter la maison de Salvador Allende, lui qui en a parlé à sa fille. Et cela suscite l'indignation dans les rangs socialistes, rapporte La Tercera. «C'est le président qui a commis une erreur et c'est une sénatrice emblématique du PS qui en paye le prix».

Josefina Ríos y Matías del Río hablaron con el senador del Partido Socialista (PS), Gastón Saavedra, quien se refirió a la reciente destitución de la senadora del PS Isabel Allende, tras la fallida compraventa de la casa de su padre, el expresidente Salvador Allende.
