Daily Updates: Italy's Coveted Visa in High Demand Among Corporates, Unveiling of Butterball's Turkey Hacking Incident
👋 Hello there to 5 Things PM! Cooking a Thanksgiving turkey can give even the most experienced chef a headache: Is it too dry? Not cooked enough? Butterball has a two-step process for preparing its frozen birds, but there's a hiccup that might not sit well with your holiday guests.
Here are some things you might have missed during your busy day:

1️⃣ Globetrotting nomads: Italy's digital nomad visa, which allows remote workers to relocate to the country, was introduced in April, but there have been few reports of people actually securing one. A fortunate recipient from California talks about her luck, packing up her life in just 48 hours to leave San Francisco for Milan.
2️⃣ Aeons of Earth: A colossal meteorite, estimated to be as large as four Mount Everests, crashed into the Earth 3.2 billion years ago. The planet was thrown into disarray — but the impact acted as a "plant food bomb" for life, scientists claim.
3️⃣ Top business trend: A company's board is searching for a new CEO, and who's most likely to get the job? A middle-aged white guy. 2024 has been the year of CEO turnover, and companies are increasingly preferring to fill vacant top jobs with a man, the data shows. CNN’s Allison Morrow explores how we got here.
4️⃣ Magic mushroom future: Antidepressants aren't effective for everyone. The stakes are high for psilocybin clinical trials as there's a pressing need for a more effective treatment in the battle against depression. This is what experts say about using psilocybin as an alternative.
5️⃣ Tough career start: It's difficult for young Americans to establish their careers right now, and early setbacks can have long-term consequences on earnings. "The Great Stay" can be blamed for this.
