Who knew that TikTok was the perfect place for baking advice? Baking guru Chelsey White (@chelsweets), who has almost 700,000 followers on TikTok and almost a million followers on Instagram, shared her popular frosting recipe on the social media site, and it's easier than you think! The number one rule of baking is that even if you take shortcuts in your baked goods, homemade frosting is always the best way to go. And if that sounds intimidating, we promise, it's actually super quick and easy and, according to this recipe, only takes five ingredients.

The recipe starts out by using a paddle mixer attachment to beat four sticks of unsalted butter (also can be measured as two cups or one pound) until it's whipped and creamy. Next, Chelsey adds a half teaspoon salt and a tablespoon vanilla extract, mixing again until they're incorporated into the softened butter. Then comes the heavy-duty stuff: mixing in a whopping seven cups powdered sugar (basically a full two-pound bag). To avoid making a mess with all that powdery sugar, she recommends beating it in gradually and slowly - using the "low" setting on the mixer - and adding three tablespoons heavy cream along the way. After about five minutes of mixing, the frosting will be the perfect smooth, creamy texture. Now you have the perfect frosting recipe to coat all of your cakes!

Takeaways from the outcry over Dior’s Johnny Depp perfume ad: Tuesday Wake-Up Call

Welcome to Ad Age’s Wake-Up Call, our daily roundup of advertising, marketing, media and digital news. You can sign up to get an audio version of this briefing on your Alexa device. Dior pulls a perfume ad starring Johnny Depp Yet another luxury brand just had to backtrack after a culturally insensitive move. Dior on Friday pulled an ad for its “Sauvage” perfume, as Business of Fashion reports ; the spot starred Johnny Depp playing guitar in the desert while a Native American dancer, Canku One Star, performed in traditional dress. The company portrayed the spot as “an authentic journey deep into the Native American soul.” But the brand was quickly accused of cultural appropriation. Critics seemed most troubled by the juxtaposition of Native American imagery with the word "Sauvage"—which means “wild” in French, but which also evokes the history of labeling indigenous groups as “savages.”  LVMH-owned Parfums Christian Dior had apparently tried to proceed cautiously. It coo

When the coronavirus infodemic strikes

Social media sites are stepping up their efforts in the war against misinformation… specifically, the coronavirus/COVID-19 infodemic . There’s a seemingly endless stream of potentially dangerous misinformation flying around online related to the COVID-19 pandemic, and that could have fatal results. It’s boomtown in fake-news land riding high on the wave of people being left with their tech devices 24/7. I myself regularly see everything posted online from “hand gel is an immunizer” (nope) and “children can’t be affected” (not true) to “UK rules mean domestic abuse survivors have to stay with their abusive spouse” (absolutely not true at all and hugely dangerous to claim).  We even have engineers being spat on thanks to 5G conspiracy theories potentially resulting in transmission of coronavirus . Turns out a global pandemic is a lightning rod for pushing people to conspiracy theories galore, to the extent that some folks have to go hunting for guides to wean their family members a

Patch, Or Your Solid State Drives Roll Over And Die

Expiration dates for computer drives? That’s what a line of HP solid-state drives are facing as the variable for their uptime counter is running out. When it does, the drive “expires” and, well, no more data storage for you! There are a series of stages in the evolution of a software developer as they master their art, and one of those stages comes in understanding that while they may have a handle on the abstracted world presented by their development environment they perhaps haven’t considered the moments in which the real computer that lives behind it intrudes. Think of the first time you saw an SQL injection attack on a website, for example, or the moment you realised that a variable type is linked to the physical constraints of the number of memory locations it has reserved for it. So people who write software surround themselves with an armoury of things they watch out for as they code, and thus endeavour to produce software less likely to break. Firmly in that arena is the size
