NHTSA is investigating Tesla over its electronic door handles

engadget.com Unknown 2025-09-27 06:36:05

Who says journalism is dead? Less than a week after Bloomberg published a damning report about Tesla's "dangerous doors," the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is now looking into it. On Tuesday, the regulator said it opened an investigation into the automaker's electrically powered doors. The problem: They stop working if the vehicle's low-voltage battery fails. The NHTSA's probe will cover the 2021 Model Y, which covers an estimated 174,290 vehicles. But the agency sug

Should We Drain the Everglades?

A Dumb Introduction to z3 using Rust

Recently I have come across a nice article: Many Hard Leetcode Problems are Easy Constraint Problems, and I figured, I really should learn how to use these things! What else do I really have to do? I have had use for solvers (or as they are commonly called: theorem provers) In a previous article, but then I tried to prove the things with good old algorithms. I looked at z3 at the time, but found the whole concept a bit too opaque. Now however, it seemed a bit easier to get into. To be clear, as

Skygazers, get ready to head outside and spot the supermoon, coming in October. NASA says that a supermoon is any moon within 90% of perigee, which occurs when the moon is closest to Earth. During this time, the moon is approximately 226,000 miles away from our planet, roughly 25,000 miles closer than when it is in apogee.

Around 90% of an Earthquake’s Energy Doesn’t Do What You Think It Does

gizmodo.com Gayoung Lee 2025-09-27 10:30:30

Earthquakes can be deadly and disastrous. But what we feel may constitute a tiny sliver of an earthquake’s destructive energy, according to a new experiment. In a recent AGU Advances paper, researchers describe how they created “lab quakes,” or miniature versions of natural earthquakes created in a controlled laboratory. Doing so allowed the team to derive a complete energy budget for the quakes, a “simplified analog” of real-life earthquakes, they reported in the paper. Surprisingly, they fou

The orbital shove demonstrated an asteroid deflection technique that could come in handy if a massive rock were headed in Earth’s direction. As it turns out, however, deflecting a potentially threatening asteroid is only half the battle.

Fourth Power’s sci-fi thermal batteries could be cheaper than pricey natural gas power plants

Fourth Power’s take on long-duration energy storage sounds like something out of a James Bond film. The thermal batteries come complete with superheated liquid tin and argon-filled hermetically sealed chambers. The company’s goal, though, is far more prosaic — to store electricity cheap enough to make solar and wind an obvious choice for 24/7 power. Here’s how the technology works: To store energy, electricity from the grid heats blocks of carbon inside insulated chambers filled with argon gas.
