Swap the tablet or gaming console for screen time you can feel good about with the Kindle Paperwhite Kids.

The Paperwhite Kids is our favorite Kindle for young readers, particularly because it has a waterproof build, unlike the regular Kindle Kids. Kids are unhinged, so a waterproof screen is a necessity. The Paperwhite Kids is also heftier than the adult Kindle Paperwhite, which makes it sturdier and able to withstand just about anything kids throw at it. If anything does manage to break it, however, Amazon will replace it within the first two years.
The newest rendition of the device was released last fall and comes in its thinnest, fastest form yet, as well as a variety of new designs. It features a seven-inch display with a higher contrast ratio and 25 percent faster page turns than its predecessor, which both help to keep kids engaged in the content.
We love that it comes with built-in parental controls and a free six-month subscription to Amazon Kids+, which is loaded with tons of age-appropriate books. That's plenty of time to get them through the lazy summer months. After the six-month trial period, it'll cost $5.99 per month. It's a good thing you'll be saving $40 on the device itself.

Financial analysts take home a maximum of $204,028, and technical product managers can make up to $235,200. The data is drawn from 11,300 documents that Amazon filed with the U.S. Department of Labor in the first quarter of the year while onboarding foreign workers.

Approximately 65% of Amazon's workforce is employed in operations and fulfillment roles in its warehouses, including positions like warehouse associates and delivery drivers. That composition is reflected in more general measures of Amazon's pay levels. For example, according to Amazon's annual proxy statement filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission this year, the median global Amazon employee made $37,181 in 2024. The same document showed that Amazon paid CEO Andy Jassy $1,596,889 in 2024, or about 43 times more than the median global employee.

According to Amazon's latest quarterly earnings report, released in May, the company employs 1.56 million people worldwide.

GE Vernova's Weak Spot Is Twisting in the Wind
GE Vernova Inc. is hitting on two of three cylinders as demand for electric power surges with the advent of artificial intelligence and the need for large data centers that underpin the technology. The sales gains and profit-margin improvements at the company's electrification and gas-turbine units are powering earnings and a 90% increase in the shares this year, including a 14% spike on Wednesday after the company reported second-quarter earnings. It's no wonder that investors are bullish. The gas-power unit posted revenue growth of 8% for the first half of this year, and operating cash flow margins jumped by almost 3 percentage points to 14%. The unit that supplies power companies with transformers, switchgear and other equipment posted a 19% sales gain in the first six months of this year, and margins jumped to more than 13% from less than 6%. The outlook for both businesses is robust as Inc., Microsoft Corp., Meta Platforms Inc., Alphabet Inc.'s Google and other so-called hyperscalers scramble to secure power for their AI data centers.
