A Viral Cybertruck Hoax Got So Big, Tesla Had to Break Its Silence

Elon Musk has always wanted the Cybertruck to be the vehicle everyone talks about. After a bizarre video went viral over the weekend, he got his wish, just not in the way he intended.

The incident highlights the Cybertruck’s strange and precarious position. It’s a vehicle so polarizing and so relentlessly hype

The importance of offtopic

The importance of offtopic Apr 15, 2025 · 1200 words · 6 minute read · go back The early days 🔗 I’ve been working remotely for over a decade – way before it was cool.

New adhesive surface modeled on a remora works underwater

Most adhesives can’t stick to wet surfaces because water and other fluids disrupt the adhesive’s bonding mechanisms.

A team of MIT scientists has now taken a close look at these remora disks and reverse-engineered them. “Basically, we looked at nature for inspiration,” says Giovanni Traverso, a prof

Trump opens door for crypto in retirement accounts

Trump opens door for crypto in retirement accounts But critics say it could increase risks for savers.
