In a new report from Vanity Fair's Gabriel Sherman on Monday, sources claimed WeWork cofounder and CEO Adam Neumann said Jamie Dimon, the CEO of JPMorgan Chase, was his "personal banker."

Neumann also claimed that Dimon, one of the biggest names in the financial world, would leave the institution to run Neumann family's personal investment fund, according to the report.

Representatives for Neumann denied the claims to Vanity Fair, and a source close to Dimon said the executive has no plans to leave JPMorgan Chase, the report said.

The report comes amid revelations that Dimon and Neumann met in New York over the weekend to attempt to get the embattled startup's IPO back on track. The coworking company delayed its public offering amid investor uncertainty around the company's finances, its unusual governance structure and potential conflicts of interest with Neumann's other business interests.

JPMorgan is leading the listing, which would occur in October at the earliest because of the delay. WeWork was initially planning to list in September.

But JP Morgan also has a long history with WeWork and with Neumann. A JP Morgan fund bought a stake in the company five years ago. The bank helped Neumann when he wanted to borrow money against some of his stock. And Neumann has also borrowed almost $40 million in mortgages from the bank, Bloomberg's Sonali Basak reported.

Meanwhile, Neumann is under siege by his board of directors and investors, according to several reports. The board convened on Monday to discuss whether or not to oust Neumann, reports said, but it wasn't clear where the group landed at the end of the day.

Adam Neumann apparently thought WeWork and Apple would make for a great team.

People at Apple, however, weren't exactly convinced.

Last fall, Neumann got the bright idea that Apple would be a good partner for WeWork and could help shore up its cash balance, Vanity Fair's Gabriel Sherman reported Monday. He thought it was such a good idea that he flew to the San Francisco Bay Area to pitch it to Luca Maestri, Apple's chief financial officer, at the iPhone maker's headquarters, Sherman reported. It's unclear what the deal would have entailed or how it would have worked, but as part of it, Apple would have made an investment in WeWork, according to the report.

Maestri and Apple turned him down, Sherman reported.

Representatives for WeWork and Apple did not immediately respond to emails seeking comment.

The meeting happened about the same time that Saudi Arabia and Abu Dhabi, the two biggest backers of SoftBank's Vision Fund, which, in turn, is the biggest bank-roller of WeWork, were souring on the real estate giant. At the time, SoftBank was considering investing an additional $16 billion in the company, but ended up putting just $1 billion directly into the company.

Neumann's partnership proposal with Apple was a kind of last-ditch effort to secure new funding for his company while keeping it private, an unnamed source familiar with the meeting told Sherman.

"This was the Hail Mary," the source said. "There was Adam's idea that there was some way out."

The potential deal actually was a small one, a source close to Neumann told Sherman.

The failure of the Apple meeting and the much-reduced investment from SoftBank spurred Neumann to push for an initial public offering to raise more funds, according to Sherman's report. WeWork postponed its IPO last week amid resistance from potential investors.

Facebook is acquiring the maker of an electronic wristband that it says will allow people to share photos on its social network, click a button on their computer's mouse, and perform other computing tasks simply by thinking about it.

Facebook said Monday that it plans to acquire CTRL-labs, a four-year old startup considered a pioneer in the emerging field of "brain computing," for an undisclosed sum. A report in Bloomberg said Facebook paid somewhere between $500 million and $1 billion for the company, citing anonymous sources.

"The vision for this work is a wristband that lets people control their devices as a natural extension of movement," Facebook executive Andrew Bosworth wrote in a blog post announcing the deal on Monday.

The deal marks an important step forward by Facebook in its ambition to develop brain computing technology, nearly three years after teasing its efforts at its annual developer conference and then going mostly silent. While the CTRL-labs wristband is still just a prototype and at least several years away from being a reality, Facebook's acquisition suggests that Facebook has not given up on the concept even as its core social networking business faces fierce scrutiny from government regulators and some consumers.

Facebook is among several well-funded organizations seeking to create science-fiction like products using a "brain computing" interface. In July, Elon Musk said that Neuralink, a brain computing company he founded, will be ready for human trials in 2020.

CTRL-labs, based in New York, has raised $67 million from backers including Google investing arm GV, Amazon's Alexa Fund and Lux Capital. The company describes its product as a "non-invasive neural interface platform."

CTRL-labs cofounder and CEO Thomas Reardon will be joining Facebook and will work out of New York, and the deal will include the company's intellectual property. It was not imediately clear if the rest of CTRL-labs, a company of a few dozen people, will join Facebook as part of the deal. Anyone from the team who wants to join Facebook is "absolutely being welcomed," the spokesperson told Business Insider.

CTRL-labs will become part of the Reality Labs group within Facebook that is developing projects like augmented reality glasses. Bosworth noted that the CTRL-labs technology could be especially useful in virtual reality and augmented reality applications.

The wristband will "decode" the signals sent from the neurons in a person's spinal cord that tell muscles in the body how to move. Those signals will be translated into digital signals that an electronic device can understand, Bosworth continued.

The wristband, he said, "captures your intention so you can share a photo with a friend using an imperceptible movement or just by, well, intending to."

The CTRL-labs wristband is still in the research phase and a few years away from being available to consumers, a Facebook spokesperson told Business Insider.

Amy and I have been in Homer, Alaska for the last ten days. Above is the view from the parking lot at the ocean in Anchor Point, which is literally “the end of the road on the western side of the US.”

Amy grew up here and it’s one of the places I go when I want to get some distance from everything. When we started coming here in the mid-1990s together, we’d literally have to disconnect in a lot of the places we hung out at. Today, you can only figuratively disconnect, as the internet will find you almost everywhere.

I’ve managed to turn off a lot of the distractions in the world over the past two years. Some, like Facebook, were easy. Others, like Google News, were harder. But even with the noise turned way down, it’s often hard to have perspective.

A 13 mile run to the end of the Homer Spit and back helps. Doing it two days in a row helps even more.

I took the weekend completely off from the computer. I read a lot, napped after my long runs, and talked to Amy. That was about it for the entire weekend.

As I settled into the Monday work rhythm, albeit four hours behind the east coast, I felt like my ten days in Homer has re-established some perspective.

Amy just said out loud, “We both seem cheerier than we did ten days ago.” True that.

People are not thrilled with Amtrak's decision to begin culling traditional dining-car services from some of its long-distance routes.

A change.org petition to keep the restaurant-style service on overnight trains east of the Mississippi River had earned more than 3,000 signatures by Monday afternoon, as news of the cuts took the internet by storm.

Gene Arensen, who started the petition, said the move signaled "the end of a 100 year tradition where dining cars served meals will end, the Midwest and West Coast trains are sure to follow. And so will national rail travel, unless we speak up and be heard."

To be sure, food will still be served aboard Amtrak trains, but it may look wildly different. The newly "enhanced" and "flexible" menu will instead offer ready-to-eat meals instead of freshly prepared eggs, steak, and so on. More details on the changes can be found on Amtrak's website.

And while Amtrak's head of customer experience, Andrew Wilander, was quick to place blame for the changes on younger generations of travelers, specifically millennials, not everyone is buying his logic.

At an event in New York City last week, Amtrak's CEO, Richard Anderson, seemed to hint that more dining-car cuts could be on the way.

"We want to simplify the process," he said. "On the single-overnight, long-distance trains, we have a mandate from Congress to take the loss on the food down, and we're going to keep driving that down. The simplest way to do that is to go to a single food car and then have choice for customers."

Even novelist Neil Gaiman wasn't happy with the news.

Earlier this month, Recode reported that Googlers were pooling personal accounts of what it was like to work at the Silicon Valley giant — specifically, times that they felt they had been retaliated against for speaking out against corporate decisions or otherwise complained to management. 

On Monday, Motherboard's Lorenzo Franceschi-Bicchierai released that collection of retaliation stories from Google employees, apparently gathered from an internal company forum.

The 45 stories recounted in the document include allegations from Googlers of being held back from promotions for reporting workplace issues, or for their involvement in organizing efforts. The stories also include instances of sexual harassment and racism they experienced at the search advertising company. 

"I identify as a LatinX female and I experienced blatant racist and sexist things from my coworker. I reported it up to where my manager knew, my director knew, the coworker's manager knew and our HR representative knew. Nothing happened," one story reads. "I was warned that 'things will get very serious if continued.' I definitely felt the theme of 'protect the man' as we so often hear about. No one protected me, the victim. I thought Google was different."

According to a current Google employee who spoke to Motherboard, the stories were collected on an internal site called "go/retaliation-stories." Googlers started posting their store after employee activists Meredith Whittaker and Claire Stapleton, known as co-organizers of the Google Walkout, publically declared they had been retaliated against, per the report.

Eileen Naughton, Google's VP of People Operations, told Business Insider on Monday that the company aims to "provide care and support to people who raise concerns." 

"Reporting misconduct takes courage and we want to provide care and support to people who raise concerns. All instances of inappropriate conduct reported to us are investigated rigorously, and over the past year we have simplified how employees can raise concerns and provided more transparency into the investigations process at Google. We work to be extremely transparent about how we handle complaints and the action we take," said Naughton's statement in full.

On May 1st, around 1,000 Google employees staged a sit-in in offices around the country to protest what they said was a pattern of retaliation against workers who speak out for change at the company. It is unclear whether the stories shared at the sit-in coincide with those leaked on Monday, though the document released by Motherboard did say that it was last updated on May 8th, which would have been shortly after the protest. 

More recently, former Googlers have spoken out about their time working at the tech giant, describing the racism they experienced at the company, and instances of retaliation for being pregnant.

Batman and Catwoman aren't the first comic-book characters to join the cast of "Fortnite" — Epic games added outfits for Black Widow and Starlord from "Marvel's Avengers" earlier this year.

"Fortnite" has had more than half a dozen crossover events in 2019 and still has one of the most active player bases of any video game in the world. More than 250 million players have registered to play "Fortnite" since 2017, and the game earned $2.4 billion last year.

Typing on an iPad can be a frustrating affair. The faster your fingers fly, the more typos you make. And while all of the numbers and punctuation marks you find on a standard keyboard can be accessed when typing on an iPad, you have to cycle through several screens to locate many of them.

Pairing a wireless Apple Magic Keyboard to your iPad allows you to enjoy a standard typing experience with full-sized keys and ready access to all the numbers and symbols you use every day. And the process of connecting the Magic Keyboard takes all of 30 seconds.

Check out the products mentioned in this article:

Adam Neumann does not seem like the kind of person you'd want running a public company — or maybe any company at all.

But anyone who thinks removing him as WeWork's CEO is going to solve the company's problem and get its initial public offering back on track is seriously deluding him or herself.

The commercial real estate giant's fundamental problem is not that it has an entitled, hard partying, apparently self-dealing egomaniac as its head. Its core trouble is that it has a business model that just doesn't work.

By itself, replacing Neumann as CEO isn't going to change the fact that WeWork loses about a $1 for every $1 that it takes in revenue. Putting someone on the order of Jack Welch or Steve Jobs or even real estate titan Sam Zell at the helm at WeWork alone isn't going to change the fact that the company is burning through cash like a wildfire going through a California forest after a seven-year drought and is on track to run out of money as soon as this spring.

And getting rid of Neumann isn't going to alter the fact that WeWork has an order of magnitude mismatch between what it owes its landlords in coming years and what its tenants are committed to paying for its services.

This is a company that — at least as it stands now — has a fatally flawed business. The only reason it's stayed operating as long as it has is because investors were foolish enough — or so entranced by Neumann's cult-leader-like personality — to keep pouring copious amounts of cash into it to the tune of nearly $13 billion.

Read more: WeWork's competitors are scrambling to distance themselves from the co-working giant, but many are following the same script

Removing Neumann might make some lenders and investors more comfortable with putting even more money into the company. But unless WeWork's new leadership overhauls the company's basic business model, the coworking giant's not going to be any more likely to survive into the future than it is now.

Scrutiny of Neumann has been increasing

It's no surprise that the board is considering removing Neumann. He has long inspired skepticism even as he built WeWork into a real estate titan with a $47 billion private valuation and an immense portfolio of leased office space. He has drawn increasing amounts of scrutiny in recent months amid a series of revelations about his personal finances and dealings with the company.

By selling stock and borrowing against his WeWork shares, Neumann has cashed in some $700 million of his holdings in the company. He made millions more by buying stakes in buildings and leasing space in them to WeWork and by registering the "We" trademark and selling it to the company.

Meanwhile, the company e mployed at least two of his relatives and gave his wife the power to help name his successor should he die or become incapacitated. And it set up a corporate structure right before it made its IPO paperwork public that insulates him from outside shareholders and can shift the tax burden on future profits from him to them.

After such deals and arrangements raised eyebrows among investors, WeWork and Neumann made a few changes. He agreed to return the money he made on the trademark and to accept some limitations on his ability to profit from the buildings leased to WeWork. His wife was removed from her role in succession planning. And Neumann agreed to reduce his voting power from 20 votes per share to 10 votes per share.

But a Wall Street Journal article last week raised fresh concerns about Neumann's fitness to lead WeWork. The article included anecdotes about Neumann's substance use and seemingly capricious and chaotic management style.

Read more: JPMorgan and UBS private wealth execs explain why they're doing more private share-backed lending to Silicon Valley. Both banks have lent to WeWork CEO Adam Neumann.

Neumann was forced to find his own way home from Israel after the flight deck of the private plane that flew him there found a stash of marijuana left there, presumably for the ride home, according to the article. Executive meetings and company parties involved prodigious amounts of tequila, the Journal reported. And the company held a booze-soaked party immediately after Neumann held a meeting to discuss his decision to lay off 7% of WeWork's staff.

In the wake of that article — and WeWork's scuttled IPO, which it postponed even before the article amid Wall Street resistance — the company's investors and board reportedly began discussing Neumann's future role at the company. The board is meeting this week to figure out what to do. Among other things, it's reportedly considering forcing Neumann to step down as WeWork's CEO, possibly to remain as its non-executive chairman.

Uber offers a cautionary tale

Forcing Neumann out could be a positive step. When Uber made a similar move two years ago, first ousting founder Travis Kalanick as its CEO and then replacing him with Dara Khosrowshahi, it led to something of a corporate makeover. Uber settled a legal dispute with Google spin-off Waymo, restructured its corporate governance, fired a slew of people for sexual harassment, and vowed to be a better corporate citizen. Crucially for investors, it eventually was able to complete its long-awaited public offering.

Dara Khosrowshahi replaced Travis Kalanick as Uber's CEO but has been unable to fix the company's business model. Carlo Allegri/Reuters But Uber's experience also serves as a cautionary tale for WeWork. Because replacing Kalanick with Khosrowshahi didn't fix Uber's underlying business problems. The app-based taxi company is still losing billions of dollars and burning through huge amounts of cash. Khosrowshahi has proven no better than Kalanick at figuring out a sustainable business model. If anything, his task has become more difficult amid sustained competition, growing regulation, and increasing unrest among Uber's drivers.

And Uber's job is arguably much easier than WeWork's. After all, Uber is basically a technology service. Although it duplicates a taxi business, it doesn't own cars or employ drivers, at least not yet. It just provides a kind of online marketplace that connects riders with drivers. And eBay showed nearly two decades ago that operating a marketplace that brings together buyers and sellers of goods or services can be a significantly profitable business.

But unlike Uber, WeWork has few real claims to being a technology business at heart. Its basic business is leasing space from building owners on long-term leases, subdividing those spaces, and then subleasing them to other companies on much shorter-term deals. It's had to spend billions of dollars leasing space — and has had to commit to spending billions more in the future so that it can keep growing. It's also had to spend billions of dollars building out and furnishing those spaces.

It's not unusual for commercial real-estate companies to invest a lot of money upfront. But typically such companies are buying buildings or are building out spaces for long-term tenants.

Some big numbers point to WeWork's problems

That's not the case with WeWork. It owns exceedingly few of the buildings it leases out. And its tenants aren't committed for the long-term. Even after WeWork has stated to sign more large companies as tenants and pushed its members to sign longer deals, the average WeWork customer is still only committed to being in its space for 15 months.

WeWork has spent billions of dollars leasing and furnishing office spaces. WeWork The basic problem with WeWork's business can be seen in just two pairs of numbers:

The first set of numbers represent the total amount WeWork has committed to paying its landlords on its leases on into the future and the average length of time of the leases it has signed.

The second set of numbers represents the commitments WeWork's tenants have made under deals they've signed with the company and the average length of time of its tenants' deals.

A new CEO is going to have a likely impossible time closing the gap on those numbers without either fundamentally changing WeWork's business model or dramatically scaling back not only its growth, but its current operations and lease commitments.

And there's another set of numbers that together represent a much more urgent problem than whoever's name is on the door of the CEO suite: $2.5 billion and $1.5 billion.

The first number is the amount of cash WeWork had on hand in June. The second is the amount of cash it burned through in the first half of this year.

At that pace, WeWork could be out of cash by early May. With the IPO on ice for now and, with it, a promised $6 billion credit line, WeWork's CEO is going to have to figure out how to find more money to keep the business afloat — or how to make some huge cuts to save what cash is left.

Read this: There are 6 billion very good reasons for WeWork to go public this year, even though Wall Street doesn't want it

WeWork needs a massive makeover

While massive change could help WeWork stay in business, it's unclear whether the company's existing investors, such as SoftBank, can stomach such a radical overhaul. The promise of WeWork — what helped it garner a $47 billion valuation in the first place — was that it was essentially a tech company with the growth to match. Eventually — once it got big enough — it would be able to show the kinds of returns that other former money losers like Amazon now deliver.

Recognizing that WeWork is really in the real estate business and needs to reshape its business to focus less on tech-like growth and more on boring things like operating expenses and lease costs is certain to further depress its already deflated valuation. After all, IWG, a coworking pioneer that's around the same size as WeWork and actually profitable, trades at less than $4 billion.

Read more: 3 VC investors in flex-space startups slam WeWork's governance and leadership as its valuation crumbles

SoftBank, which is trying to raise a second $100 billion VisionFund, is reportedly loath to write down its investment in WeWork to even $15 billion or $20 billion. Taking it down even further may be out of the question.

Maybe another CEO, one who isn't the founder and isn't so personally tied to the company as it is, might have the kind of perspective to tackle all of WeWork's problems — how to placate investors such as SoftBank, how to get costs and revenue more in line, how to build a sustainable business.

But by itself, replacing Neumann CEO doesn't solve WeWork's problems. And no one should let themselves be fooled into thinking that it does.

Although they're not for everyone, the enduring popularity of tablets stands as a testament to their appeal. Tablets inhabit a middle zone between a smartphone and a laptop, giving you more computer-like capabilities for work and entertainment without the bulk. Apple virtually pioneered the tablet market and still leads the way with its excellent iPad lineup.

Apple hardware can get pretty expensive, but the good news is that compared to other tablets, iPads actually aren't terribly pricey. There is certainly a plethora of cheap Android tablets available today, including the very budget-friendly Kindle Fire lineup, but you'll typically pay around the same price for most iPad models as you would for a good name-brand Android tablet.

Apple's tablet family runs the gamut in pricing from as low as $250 for a standard iPad to around $1,900 for the latest iPad Pro with all the bells and whistles, so whatever you're looking to spend, there's probably an iPad out there for you. Below, we've rounded up all of the current iPad models available online right now so you can find the right Apple tablet for your needs and budget.

Google Hangouts is a tool that can help connect teams or companies through text chats and video meetings. And when it comes to sharing vital information, recording those meetings can be a valuable tool to add to your arsenal.

Recording a Google Hangouts meeting is great for people who can't attend the meeting when it happens. Once it's recorded, you can send out a link to those who weren't able to attend the meeting, and thus be sure everyone knows what's going on.

Before you get started, you should be aware that the ability to record a Google Hangout is only available in the G Suite Enterprise and G Suite Enterprise Education editions, which are paid subscription services.

For more information on which G Suite memberships have what features, see our article, "'What is Google Meet?': A guide to Google's professional video-conferencing service, including pricing options and how to join a meeting."

Assuming you have one of those two memberships, here's what you'll need to do to record in Google Hangout:

How to record a Google Hangouts session

The process is simple:

1. Start or join a video meeting — if you don't have a link to the meeting, go to hangouts.google.com and then start the meeting by pressing "Video Call."

If you need to start a video conference, you can do so from the Hangouts homepage. Devon Delfino/Business Insider

2. If you're creating a new meeting without a guest list, invite the participants by clicking the "People" button in the top-right corner, clicking "Add People," and then typing their email addresses into the pop-up window.

Hangouts will automatically suggest inviting people in your contacts. Devon Delfino/Business Insider

3. Once you're ready to start the meeting, click the three dots in the lower-right corner of the screen.

4. Select "Record meeting."

Once you've opened the three dot menu, you can start recording. William Antonelli/Business Insider

After that, simply wait for the recording to start. Anyone in the meeting will get a notification that the meeting is being recorded, as well as another notification when the recording stops.

To stop the recording, click the three dots again and select "Stop recording." It takes about ten minutes or so for the recording file to be generated. Once it is, the video will be saved to the meeting organizer's Google Drive, in a folder labeled "Meet Recordings."

The organizer will also get an email letting them know when the recording is ready, including a link to the recording.

How to play, save, or share a Google Hangout recording

To play or share the recording, simply double-click the file link in Google Drive. Or if you get the email, click the included link, wait for it to open, and then select whether you want to play it immediately, share it, or save it to your Drive.

For those who aren't the organizer, the event link in Google Calendar will automatically be updated so it leads to the recorded video file.

Netflix lost some major Emmy awards on Sunday to HBO and Amazon Prime Video, marking another year when the streaming giant failed to land a series win.

HBO's "Game of Thrones" and "Chernobyl" won the Emmy for best drama series, beating Netflix's "Bodyguard" and "Ozark," which won the prize for best directing for a drama series. Heading into Sunday night, Netflix's "When They See Us" was a favorite to win the award for best limited series, but lost to its biggest competition, HBO's "Chernobyl."

Prime Video dominated the comedy category, including a best comedy series win for "Fleabag," beating Netflix's "Russian Doll."

But Netflix makes up for those losses in other ways and doesn't necessarily need a series Emmy win to prove its worth.

With over 150 million subscribers worldwide, 60 million of which are in the US, Netflix is the streaming champion. And its TV library is still stronger than most of its competition.

Netflix has 1,966 total shows available to stream, second only to Prime Video in terms of streaming services, according to data from streaming search-engine Reelgood provided to Business Insider. Netflix has the most original shows of its competition by far and is expected to spend up to $15 billion this year on content.

"When They See Us" Netflix

And when it comes to high-quality TV shows, Hulu and Netflix are neck-and-neck, according to the data. Hulu has 213 high-quality shows while Netflix has 203. Reelgood defined a high-quality show as any with an 8 rating or higher on IMDb.

But Hulu and Amazon Prime Video have still never been the kind of Emmys powerhouse that Netflix is (despite Hulu's "The Handmaid's Tale" winning a series Emmy).

Netflix won 27 Emmys total this year (including the Creative Arts Emmys), second only to HBO. And while HBO reclaimed the crown this year, Netflix beat HBO in the number of Emmy nominations last year and tied for the most wins.

While Netflix is in a solid place right now, it could become more vulnerable in the near future.

As Business Insider's Ashley Rodriguez wrote, Netflix's second-place Emmys status came at at a time when the streaming battle is dramatically heating up with incoming competition from Apple (Apple TV Plus), Disney (Disney Plus), WarnerMedia (HBO Max), and NBCUniversal (Peacock).
