John Paulson, a billionaire investor and a close ally of former President Donald Trump, has revealed his plans to work with Elon Musk on substantial federal spending cuts if he were to be appointed <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/10/41148843/much-wow-how-elon-musk-went-from-promising-to-eat-a-happy-meal-if-mcdonalds-adopts-dogecoi">Treasury secretary in a second Trump administration</a>.
What Happened: Paulson expressed his intentions to extend Trump&#8217;s 2017 tax cuts and collaborate with Musk to reduce federal spending, particularly by eliminating subsidies for green energy in the Inflation Reduction Act, which he referred to as the Green New Deal, <a href="https://www.wsj.com/politics/elections/john-paulson-trump-treasury-secretary-elon-musk-c619ef9f?mod=hp_lead_pos1">reported</a> The Wall Street Journal on Tuesday.
"All of these tax subsidies for solar, for wind, inefficient, uneconomic energy sources. Eliminate that. That brings down spending," Paulson said.
Paulson, 68, has been a close associate of Trump for over a decade. His views are highly regarded due to his close ties with the former president and his extensive involvement in GOP politics. 
Paulson has donated to Republican political operations such as the Senate Leadership Fund and is a trustee of the Manhattan Institute, a conservative-leaning think tank.
In the interview, Paulson also suggested that his potential responsibilities could extend to energy and trade. He indicated that he would work with Trump to promote energy production and implement strategic tariffs.

Why It Matters: Musk has floated the idea of a &#8220;Department of Government Efficiency,&#8221; or D.O.G.E., which aims to streamline federal spending by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/10/41395354/elon-musk-touts-doge-agency-while-endorsing-trump-during-pennsylvania-town-hall-dogecoin-g">overseeing various agencies</a>.

The idea has gained traction, especially among supporters of the Dogecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>) community, with Musk&#8217;s references to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/10/41148843/much-wow-how-elon-musk-went-from-promising-to-eat-a-happy-meal-if-mcdonalds-adopts-dogecoi">the cryptocurrency meme</a>.

Whether you&#8217;re in a meeting, at the movies, or just need a little peace, knowing how to quickly silence your iPhone can be a lifesaver. Apple Inc. provides a couple of straightforward ways to keep your phone quiet.
Let's explore how to use Silent Mode, customize settings, and leverage Do Not Disturb for a distraction-free experience.
Silent Mode: Flip The Switch Or Press The Button
On iPhones with a Ring/Silent Switch (like most iPhone models): Flip the switch on the left side of your iPhone toward the back of the device. When it's in Silent Mode, you'll see a small orange stripe on the switch. Flip it back toward the front of the phone to enable sounds again.
On Newer Models With The Action Button (like the iPhone 15 Pro and newer): Apple has added the customizable "Action button".&nbsp;
Go to Settings &gt; Sounds &amp; Haptics and assign the Action button to toggle Silent Mode on or off. This Action button can also be customized for other features, like launching the camera or activating shortcuts, so it's worth exploring more in Settings.
Note: Even in Silent Mode, some sounds — like alarms, audio from apps, and emergency alerts — will still play.

Using Do Not Disturb For Temporary Silence

Step II: Tap "Focus," then select &#8220;Do Not Disturb.&#8221; Once it's enabled, all notifications, calls, and alerts will be muted. A small moon icon will appear in the status bar, indicating Do Not Disturb is on.

Eli Lilly And Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LLY#NYSE">LLY</a>) experienced a 1.37% increase in pre-market trading on Wednesday, as per <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro.</a> This uptick occurs as the company gears up to announce its third-quarter earnings. Wall Street analysts are forecasting earnings per share of $1.45 and revenues of $12.1 billion.
What Happened: Eli Lilly has established itself as a significant player in the weight loss drug market, with its products Mounjaro and Zepbound generating over $4 billion in the last quarter.
The stock has seen remarkable growth, surging 58.31% over the past year and 51.23% year-to-date, with shares nearing $900. This increase from around $250 two years ago has led to speculation about a<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/10/41604706/eli-lilly-q3-earnings-on-deck-stock-split-rumors-heat-up-with-weight-loss-gains"> potential stock split</a>, which could make shares more accessible to a broader range of investors.

Why It Matters: Eli Lilly is on the verge of becoming the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/10/41137681/eli-lilly-nears-first-trillion-pharma-title-but-investors-caution-amid-sky-high-valuation">first trillion-dollar pharmaceutical company</a>, driven by the success of its weight loss drugs. The company&#8217;s market cap was $796.4 billion, with an enterprise value of $821.9 billion as of early October. The stock has nearly doubled since May 2022, outperforming both the S&amp;P 500 and NASDAQ following FDA approval for Mounjaro as a treatment for type 2 diabetes.
Additionally, Eli Lilly has intensified its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/10/41275991/eli-lilly-issues-cease-and-desist-letters-to-compounders-over-weight-loss-drug-copies-as-shortage">legal efforts against compounders</a> producing unauthorized copies of its weight loss drugs. The FDA recently declared the shortage of Eli Lilly&#8217;s tirzepatide injection resolved, reminding compounders of legal restrictions on replicating FDA-approved medications.

What Happened: In the second half of August, Waymo co-CEO&nbsp;Tekedra Mawakana&nbsp;revealed that the company is now providing over <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40479370/tesla-robotaxi-rival-waymo-witnesses-rapid-expansion-in-its-weekly-paid-rides-doubling-to-100k-in-3">100,000 paid robotaxi rides every week</a>, implying that the company has added 50,000 rides per week in just about two months. 
&#8220;Through its expanded network and operations partnership with Uber in Austin and Atlanta, plus a new multiyear partnership with Hyundai, Waymo will bring fully autonomous driving to more people and places,&#8221; Pichai said. &#8220;Waymo is now a clear technical leader within the autonomous vehicle industry and creating a growing commercial opportunity.&#8221;

In a landmark development, Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) mining operations are set to heat one of the coldest regions on Earth.
What happened: Sazmining, a Bitcoin mining firm that connects individual retail miners with renewable energy-powered facilities, said in a press release that the new site would come up in Norway, just above the Arctic Circle.
The mining site would be hydro-powered, and the heat generated from the process would be repurposed to warm up buildings, replacing oil-fired boilers with high carbon footprints.
Additionally, the excess heat would be supplied to local industries, such as the drying of cod fish, helping the residents save on energy costs.
"We&#8217;re proving that Bitcoin mining can deliver true value for value. By integrating nearly 100% carbon-free energy and repurposing mining heat for local industries, we&#8217;re creating a win-win for everyone," Sazmining CEO Kent Halliburton said.

Why It Matters: Bitcoin mining sites are large data centers that run on massive amounts of electricity, helping to keep the network secure and pushing more Bitcoins into circulation.
Heat is one of the biggest by-products of the process. As such, repurposing this excess heat could be a lucrative business opportunity, especially in areas with extremely cold climates.
Bitcoin mining also plays an important role in Texas, the Bitcoin mining hub of the U.S.&nbsp;
