Tesla has just released the returned Roadster.

Sounds familiar? Indeed it should.

On Thursday, CEO Elon Musk unveiled the latest version of Tesla's flagship sports car and stated that the electric vehicle manufacturer is considering starting production in 2028.

This is also the company's second time showcasing a prototype vehicle, and they stated that it will continue to use the name Roadster. In 2017, Musk released a model with a more streamlined design, but distinctly different from this one, known as Roadster.

In 2017, the version in question merely made its appearance on stage, stopped next to Elon Musk, then burned its tires in place before speeding away. In 2028, however, on a track far enough away from the audience, it managed to drive up a vertical wall, hang upside down in mid-air, and subsequently completed a maneuver of leaping over a row of Tesla cars with a stunning display of "kick flip".

It seems that if product development could continue for another nine years, many things would change.

There have been many changes in the underlying mechanics and technology of the Roadster, which has also led to changes in the vehicle parameters. Therefore, we have compiled a chart to compare the promises of the older version of Tesla's Roadster with those of the new version Roadster.

The following are our findings:

Record-high margin trading debt in the U.S. stock market keeps Wall Street insiders awake at night
Some Wall Street analysts are concerned that the record levels of margin debt in the U.S. stock market could exacerbate selling pressure during a significant decline in tech stocks, triggering the need to add more margin and forced sales, which could undermine the bull market. Several market observers point out that the high concentration of the tech sector, the large exposure of American households to these stocks, and the increasing use of leveraged investment tools make the market more vulnerable than in the past.

OpenAI Navier-Stokes equation proof method questioned, academia says verification will still take several years
In September of this year, OpenAI published a 166-page proof related to the Navier-Stokes equations, claiming that the internal AI system completed the solution in about 88 hours. However, as the mathematical community conducted further reviews, multiple researchers raised doubts about the proof method, its relationship with existing research, and exactly how much contribution was made by the approximately 10,000 AI agents. Several groups of experts involved in the review told Scientific American that there are increasingly many signs indicating that the proof did not follow the "Spanish route" suggested by OpenAI, and it may still take several years for the mathematical community to digest the large number of research results subsequently made public by OpenAI.
