Tesla's Cybertruck has quickly become an extremely politically charged target of anti-Elon Musk sentiment. The bulky steel tanks seem to court vandals and loathing almost everywhere they go. But when spray paint is the worst a Cybertruck driver has to worry about, they’ve gotten off easy — there are now several reports of the 6,600-pound EVs shedding metal body panels at dangerously high speeds. The Cybertruck is designed with a nine-foot piece of boomerang-shaped window trim on each side. In

Less than four years after its showstopping launch, the James Webb Space Telescope is facing massive budget slashes that will, experts worry, harm scientific progress and stymie the beloved observatory's operations. As Space.com reports, the research center that oversees Webb's operations has been directed to steel the observatory for up to 20 percent in budget cuts. Officials with that center, the Maryland-based Space Telescope Science Institute (STSci) that also oversees the Hubble and Chand

Ever felt like you're just not meant for this modern age? Try having the last name "Null." Err, sorry. Please try again. Null is the term used in computer systems the world over to indicate "no value." That's not the same as the number zero, mind you. It's more like telling the computer there's "nothing to see here." So in a field for someone's phone number, for example, a "null" there would mean that no number has been entered. For those of a certain surname, this creates quite the headache.

Musk cofounded the ChatGPT maker alongside current CEO Sam Altman in 2015, but ragequit four years later after growing frustrated with its direction. Ever since, Musk has maintained that OpenAI needs to "return to the open source, safety-focused force for good it once was," as he told the Wall Street Journal in a statement earlier this month.
