Tesla Is Making a Move in New York City That Regulators Absolutely Hate

gizmodo.com Riley Gutiérrez Mcdermid 2025-12-25 09:00:47

Tesla is coming in hot in New York City and regulators, legislators and consumers are already pushing back. The electric car company’s latest foray into regulator wrestling comes via a hiring push for autopilot drivers in NYC, despite holding no permits for that service in the city. Given that Tesla has already spent years fighting federal probes, civil and criminal lawsuits and a host of scrutiny from everyone from the SEC to local politicians, its new push appears to be a further continuation

The covid-19 pandemic was a horrific and earth-shattering world event. But it may not have scarred our collective psyche as profoundly as you would think.

They found evidence that our anxiety levels didn’t significantly shift in the first years of the pandemic. People’s mental fortitude during the pandemic was p

We all need quality sleep to function properly during the day, but it gets even more important when you're pregnant. The irony? That's also when sleep gets harder. With a lot of nighttime activity in the womb, you can get less sleep at a time when you need more sleep. A recent Reddit thread also shows many moms-to-be experiencing the same, leading to more fatigue during the day.

The case for commuting by motorcycle

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-12-25 09:36:32

America has a motorcycle problem. Whereas the rest of the world views two-wheeled motorized transportation as transportation, the US sees motorcycles and scooters as toys. They're not something you use to commute to work or run errands. Instead, they're for riding to the coffee shop on weekends. This is a flawed line of thinking, and I'll tell you why, using two motorcycles as examples. But first, hear me out. I live in Los Angeles, which is famous for its hellacious traffic.

What's Your Curl Type? (2025)

Like, for instance, how to brush them. My mother has straight hair and didn't quite understand how to deal with my curls when I was a child, so she would deal with unruly hair the only way she knew how: by brushing it. As a result, I look like a poodle in nearly every one of my elementary school photos. According to Syed, brushing and combing curly hair is OK—but only when the hair is wet. Unsurprisingly, pin-straight Type 1 hair is the easiest to comb or brush. However, Type 4 hair is not four
