Nested lookup logic made simple for multi-row pivot table data
Matching business numbers to cities in a pivot table sounds straightforward, until you realize those numbers repeat across locations. A user here needs a formula that checks both the business number *and* the city before pulling the right data. That's nested lookup logic, and it's exactly where traditional spreadsheets start to feel limiting. An AI-native approach can simplify this kind of multi-condition matching, turning a tangled formula into a clear, direct query.
Tinder brings in-person connections to 26 cities as dating shifts offline
Tinder is betting that Gen Z's dating fatigue can be cured offline. The app's in-person events, tested in Los Angeles, are expanding to 26 cities by the end of September. It's a smart move for a generation craving real connection over endless swiping. We're not surprised. Younger users are rethinking digital romance entirely. For more on how Gen Z builds community in unexpected places, check out our piece on middle schoolers finding belonging in NPR comments. The takeaway? Authenticity wins.
Snap follows TikTok in settling social media addiction lawsuit
TikTok has now settled its portion of the social media addiction case, just ahead of a jury trial set to begin next week in Los Angeles. YouTube has also reached its own deal, which leaves Meta as the last company still defending itself. That is a notable position to hold. Watching the dominoes fall here feels less like a surprise and more like a turning point. For anyone tracking how these platforms respond to accountability, this is worth following closely.
