💡 Did you know that after the release of "The Queen's Gambit," orders for chess sets surged by 87% and sales for chess strategy books spiked by an impressive 603%? This phenomenon, known as the "Queen's Gambit Effect," led to a massive influx of users on Chess.com, now the largest online chess platform globally. Before the show's debut, Chess.com faced challenges managing its remote, global workforce using outdated systems. With Rippling, they transformed their operations, unifying employee data, streamlining processes, and enhancing scalability. Rippling enabled Chess.com to: 📈 Grow its remote team from 200 to 700 employees 🚫 Reduce administrative burden and friction for its HR team 💻 Enhance security and automate device provisioning without a dedicated IT team "Rippling is taking away the burden. It’s adding insight and visibility into some of the things that you often have to take on an administrative load to learn about and solve." — Brendan Woodroff, VP of People at Chess.com 📚 Read the full story from Josh Bersin at the link here: https://lnkd.in/gFPQebMt #Chess #RemoteWork #HRIS

Credit scores are important and having rent payments count toward your credit score is a great change. Building credit and sustaining good credit is a critical step towards your path to homeownership. However, a good credit score is only one factor in pursuit of homeownership and not very effective in isolation. A downpayment can have a greater impact on one’s ability to own a home which becomes more challenging with rising home prices across the country. Recent data has shown that the Bank of Mom and Dad has helped many reach their homeownership goals however for those who do not have access to these funds, the goal has become unattainable especially in the country’s most expensive cities like Toronto and Vancouver. We know that Canadians want to own homes. Homeownership remains a life goal for many in the country. However, the cost of living, rising interest rates, high rents in the interim is discouraging many younger generations and pushing them to be (reluctant, for many) renters for the longer term. This also has many unintended consequences that further exacerbate our current housing crisis. #housingaffordability #housingcrisis

New Post: ‘Pokémon Legends Z-A’ set for 2025 release date - https://lnkd.in/g-nRvmb6 - Nintendo has confirmed the release of Pokémon Legends Z-A, which is due 2025. READ MORE: ‘Pokémon Legends: Arceus’ review: almost the ‘Pokémon’ we always wanted The announcement came yesterday as part of the annual Pokémon Day celebrations and despite The Pokémon Company confirming it had several “exciting” plans, it still took fans by surprise for a number of reasons. Not only had Game Freak been hinting at a remake of Pokémon Black & White following the success of Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl in 2021 but Nintendo had never confirmed that Legends: Arceus was anything more than a standalone title. However, Pokémon Legends Z-A is due for release some time in 2025 and will take players back to the Parisian-inspired central city of Pokémon X & Pokémon Y. “A new adventure awaits within Lumiose City, where an urban redevelopment plan is under way to shape the city into a place that belongs to both people and Pokémon,” said the official description, with the trailer also hinting at the return of fan-favourite feature mega-evolutions, which haven’t been used since 2014’s Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire. While Arceus took players back in time to a very early version of the Sinnoh region, known as Hisui, the futuristic look of Lumiose City has fans speculating that Z-A will see them time travelling into the near future. The Pokémon set to feature in Z-A have yet to revealed, but the trailer leans heavily on generation six with Aegislash, Litleo, Pyroar, Klefki, Talonflame, Furfrou, Gogoat, Fletchling, Sylveon, Espurr, Flabébé and Hawlucha all showcased, alongside a lot of Pikachu action. Classic Pokémon like Dragonair, Gyrados and Pidgy also feature. Pokémon Z was originally rumoured to be the sequel to 2013’s X&Y but never materialised. In a three-star review, NME wrote: “Pokémon Legends: Arceus is the game that many have wanted Pokémon to be for the last 10 years. It also looks about that old and runs about that well too. It’s absolutely wonderful to finally have something genuinely new in this amazing series, but I’m also really hoping this is just the first step towards more experimentation with the formula, because now we’ve all been given a taste of what Pokémon could become.” In other news, Hidetaka Miyazaki has said there is a “high possibility” he won’t be involved in future “Souls-ish” FromSoftware games.
