Why do we see so many sparks flying from NASCAR vehicles so quickly? From 1:43 in the video, nearly everyone has sparks flying from underneath or from the sides of the car. What’s scraping on the ground so soon after contact?

I found a 5-year-old congratulatory message from a distant colleague, after I won an industry award. I suppose it would have been nice to have seen that back then.

Does anyone know (or has Tesla published) stats on how many people who submitted reservations for the S or the X actually bought them in the end? I assume there must be a dropoff rate of at least 20% or 30%, but I wonder what it is.

Question, since I don’t know my baseball rules well enough. Couldn’t that be called an error? I mean, Cespedes clearly erred on a play where Reed could easily have been held at 2nd. Asking out of ignorance.

Tony Martin, being pushed by his teammates across the finish line of Stage 6 of Tour de France, in Le Havre, last July. Of course, he did drop out of the race and head back to Germany for surgery that evening. Photo by me.

The Heels are, like, 523rd in the nation in 3-point shots, and they make this one?? (Yes, I know there are only 347 D-I men’s teams, but really, they’re mostly that terrible on 3-pointers - could they please have made MORE THAN JUST ONE against Dook?!?)

Watch the video, man. It’s clear that Yellow crushed Red, 16 to 4.
