Tesla stock sank, Uber rose after robotaxi event. Here’s why.

Uber (UBER) shares ticked higher on Friday after Tesla's (TSLA) robotaxi event left investors largely disappointed.

And they were the opposite for Uber and for Tesla," Martin says of the movement.He tells Yahoo Finance that "if Tesla was able to solve automated vehicles and robo in the near term or you saw a roadmap for even the intermediate term, then that was a problem potentially for Uber longer term. But the devil is in the details."As investors were left looking for more insight and further information about the robotaxi rollout, […]

Idiot Trump Accidentally Debunks Himself at Pennsylvania Rally

Donald Trump played a strange video at his rally Wednesday meant to criticize Kamala Harris’s plan to increase taxes for the middle class. But a closer look at the video finds that none of the clips included advocated for increasing taxes on the middle class.“She’s the taxing queen. She’s going to raise your taxes, where you’re going to be at least paying at least three thousand dollars a year more. Take a look,” Trump said before referring to the screen behind him. Behind him, Trump played a video that edited together different times Harris had announced her plan to “get rid of that tax bill” and “get rid of that tax cut,” referring to the corporate tax rate cuts Trump had installed during his time in office. In fact, two of the included clips are of Harris explicitly talking about […]

Why is this Idaho high-mountain lake drying up? Sadly, it’s likely a familiar culprit

My friends and I optimistically but naively brought our fly fishing gear on a backpacking trip into the White Clouds at the end of September.We’ve been looking for more out-of-the-way places that might be a little farther from Boise, with maybe a little harder hike to get away from the madding crowds.Ocalkens Lakes seemed to fit the bill: The trailhead is about 27 miles east of Stanley, and the hike was about 4.5 miles, with a 2,000-foot elevation gain up to Ocalkens Lake #2 at 9,200 feet.Just what we were looking for.Until we got there.We were shocked and disappointed to find Ocalkens Lake #2 was nearly dry.Some water still sat a couple of inches deep, but we were able to walk across the muddy lake bed to the other side.Certainly no fishing there.We were able to find Ocalkens Lake #1 […]
