Regexer, who asked to be referred to by his online moniker for fear of being targeted by hackers again, quickly realized he was being hacked, and his attempts to log into his Coinbase to regain control were unsuccessful. Soon after, he noticed he… Source link

Google is obliging. Earlier this year, the search giant asked students to submit entries for its Doodle for Google contest. The winner will take home some big prizes and see their artwork atop Google.com for 24 hours. The Doodle for Google contest, now in its 14th year, allows kids “to display their own Doodle creativity on Google.com and win some awesome prizes while doing it!” the company says. This year’s theme is self-care. Alithia entered her drawing ahead of the March deadline: a girl… Source link

There are some weird quirks baked into MLB’s lengthy rulebook, and the Washington Nationals ran into a particularly unsavory morsel on Wednesday. In the fifth inning, the Nationals were in trouble. The Pittsburgh Pirates had runners on second and third with one out and the score tied 3-3.

Third-quarter earnings season is underway, and one of the most closely watched stocks just presented its scorecard: Tesla Inc.  (NASDAQ:TSLA). Tesla reported record-breaking results, beating expectations on EPS and revenue. Though the company’s stock dropped briefly following the report, Tesla has been on a tear ever since, even crossing the $900 mark in early trading Friday morning.  Those certainly are impressive top-and bottom-line growth numbers if the EV company is able to meet them,… Source link
