Tesla Cybertruck 7 years ago

Ever since that cement bridge collapsed at Florida International University a few months ago on top of cars, I've been wondering if any type of car could withstand the force of such a scenario.

Anyone know if this truck could withstand the scenario? Hopefully someone smart with the Physics or Engineering can help me out with an answer.

So dishonest..

“I would like you to do us a favor though because our country has been through a lot and Ukraine knows a lot about it. I would like you to find out what happened with this whole situation with Ukraine, they say Crowdstrike … I guess you have one of your wealthy people … The server, they say Ukraine has it. There are a lot of things that went on, the whole situation. I think you’re surrounding yourself with some of the same people. I would like to have the Attorney General call you or your people and I would like you to get to the bottom of it. As you saw yesterday, that whole nonsense ended with a very poor performance by a man named Robert Mueller, an incompetent performance, but they say a lot of it started with Ukraine. Whatever you can do, it’s very important that you do it if that’s possible.”

I don't follow Crypto very closely (my background is Investment Management aka Finance), but I saw HackerNoon banner that says "Own Shares in Hacker news" then looked at SEC definition of security, and honestly it really baffled me how an ICO wasn't being regulated by SEC. I'm guessing because it's a "new technology" and that the SEC has been slow to react.

Anyways, I am curious if anyone thinks that some of the recent drop in Cryptos is due to SEC crackdown in ICO's?

Thank you

^ probably good place to start

I work in Finance/Investment Industry and was "let go" from one of the companies I worked at because I automated a large portion of my job (among other things). I even wrote an instruction manual for the entire process (not knowing that I could/would be let go). They ended up replacing me with a guy who didn't know how to program, but had 20 years of experience. Live and learn.

what was interesting was trump's comment the other day regarding paying down the debt using the gained taxes in gdp growth. I haven't done the math myself, but it's an interesting scenario to thing through if it's possible because I don't think it's one that many people are thinking about.

Hacker News Guidelines

What to Submit On-Topic: Anything that good hackers would find interesting. That includes more than hacking and startups. If you had to reduce it to a sentence, the answer might be: anything that gratifies one's intellectual curiosity.

Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon. Videos of pratfalls or disasters, or cute animal pictures. If they'd cover it on TV news, it's probably off-topic.

lol i was going to say same thing, but seriously if this relaxes the prop trading at larger firms, and they decide to invest in bitcoin, bitcoin will go up. now, whether of not this portion does that, i don't know.

The downgrade by Moody's is why the stock is down as much as it is, imo, as it immediately impacts the discount rate (aka cost of capital) and makes it more expensive for TSLA to borrow money. The impact of the investigation on TSLA's future growth/financials doesn't seem quantifiable right now.

I've been "coding" full-time for two years now and I use Windows as primary operating system, the biggest issue/pains that I've experienced is:

1) Most of the tutorials online are written for linux 2) installing dependencies on windows is a bitch sometimes (75% of time I can get stuff to work on windows other times I give up because of lack of availability of certain packages and compiling issues).

It's my opinion that you will eventually need to learn how to operate in linux, so what I'd recommend you do to help with learning: - Install Hyper-V if you have Windows Professional, this way you can install various linux distros (start with ubuntu, then debian, then centos possibly). - install Bash for Windows - install docker for windows
