First Thoughts about Elon Musk's New Endeavor: Tesla's Cybertruck

First Thoughts about Elon Musk's New Endeavor: Tesla's Cybertruck Tesla Chief Executive Elon Musk unveiled the company's Cybertruck at an event at Tesla's design studio on Thursday, Nov. 21, 2019, in Los Angeles So the year is 2019, and trucks have had the same traditional design for arguably the last 70 years or so. The market for trucks, as a result, has also become very competitive. This is because the defining factor behind truck sales has been designed consistency and brand loyalty.

This, in turn, makes it incredibly hard for new companies to enter this market as they are usually pushed aside by established brands such as Ford and Ram.  Enter Tesla and its creative genius of a CEO, Elon Musk.

Harrison Bergeron

Harrison Bergeron Analysis It's the year 2081, and everyone is equal. The story zone into a couple, George and Hazel Bergeron. George and Hazel have a son, Harrison, however, the government took him away when he was fourteen years old. See, someone once decided that George Bergeron is of above-average intelligence, so he's had a radio implanted in his ear. Piercing sirens crashes and booms go off periodically to hinder his thought process. (His wife, Hazel, on the other hand, is the definition of average. No handicaps on her.) One night,  the Bergerons are sitting in front of the TV watching ballet with ballerinas wearing masks to hide their beauty and weights to hinder their grace and strength.

Notion:     Notion is the new kid on block who has got a reputation and has increased greatly in terms of popularity, however, is it better than OneNote in terms of features? Long story short, NO . Notion is simply a database for your notes, which doesn't over many features of a text editing notetaking app. However, to its credit, Notion's UI is better than OneNote's and Evernote's UI.
