Solana (SOL) and Cardano (ADA) Outlooks Remain Bearish: This week’s Expectations

Yesterday, Solana and Cardano posted a stable performance where these coins made a small rise in price. However, this didn’t make a huge impact as Solana (SOL) did not break the $30 resistance, and even at the time of this writing, the coin has shed off some of the small gains made yesterday. On the other hand, the Cardano (ADA) coin posted the same growth yesterday, where the coin did not go past the 2% increase in 24 hours. As of writing, Cardano had also made a small gain over the last 24 hours, increasing…

Tesla Earnings Beat Expectations, Revenue Falls Short

The company expects to “sell every car that we make for as far into the future as we can see,” Mr. Musk said as Tesla reported near-record quarterly profit. Strong vehicle pricing helped Tesla generate nearly $3.3 billion in quarterly profit for the three months ended in September, ahead of expectations of analysts surveyed by FactSet.

A Tiresome Fantasy Follow-up Finally Exceeds Expectations on Netflix

via Sony Given that we’re a little over two weeks away from the spookiest day on the calendar, anything and everything remotely resembling horror is destined to find new life on streaming. That even extends to entirely forgettable and vastly inferior sequels, too, with Goosebumps 2: Haunted Halloween finally beginning to justify its existence on Netflix. As per FlixPatrol, the incredibly uninteresting follow-up to the 2015 original has conjured a spot on the platform’s worldwide most-watched rankings, even…

LFF Review: ‘Aftersun’ Redefines Storytelling Expectations

Charlotte Wells, writer-director of Aftersun, has created an understated portrait of personal tragedy in this deceptively dark father-daughter team-up. Melding camcorder footage with an absurdly gifted performance from Frankie Corio, it has garnered unanimous adulation from festival audiences, helped in no small measure by the presence of Paul Mescal (Normal People).  As the father figure in this intricately constructed feature film debut, Mescal fulfills every paternal expectation, yet subtly reveals someone perpetually…

Today, the agency confirmed that the mission was a success: The impact of the Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) spacecraft nudged the moon closer to its partner, Didymos, shortening its nearly 12-hour orbital period by 32 minutes. The degree of deflection was far greater than…

Elon Musk has started to set some expectations for Tesla AI Day 2, which we now know is going to feature “lots of technical detail and cool hardware demos.” While it has been a long time since Tesla had a proper product unveiling event, the company started to hold somewhat regular annual events with specific subjects at the center of the presentation – not unlike Apple with its annual “Apple Worldwide Developers Conference” and regular fall event. It started with “Tesla Battery Day” in 2020, when the automaker…
