(Bloomberg) — Uber Technologies Inc. is asking New York City’s taxi regulator to reconsider proposed changes to commercial auto insurance requirements, saying they may unintentionally leave thousands of drivers in one of the company’s largest markets unable to insure their vehicles.

Uber prepared written comments ahead of a public hearing to be held Wednesday by the Taxi and Limousine Commission, or TLC, regarding the proposed requirements.

It would also require…

The original business idea of producing its own fuel cell systems was abandoned in favour of licensing the company’s own technologies. Instead of investing in expensive production,…

Elon Musk has warned Bill Gates could go bankrupt in the future if Tesla meets one condition.

They are two of the most powerful and richest men on the planet, but they often don’t seen eye to eye.

Back in April 2022, Musk said he refused a philanthropy request from Gates over the stock shorting incident, which was revealed by screenshots of a text exchange between the pair.

The Tesla CEO asked Gates if he still had a ‘half billion dollar short position against Tesla’, to which the Microsoft founder replied: “Sorry to say I haven’t closed it yet […] I would like to discuss philanthropy possibilities.”

Katies was once a staple of the Australian fashion industry but the brand will be lost to time as its remaining 80 stores are shut for good in January.

The closures are one lever being pulled in a delicate bid to stabilise parent company Mosaic Brands, which recently entered voluntary administration owing creditors almost $250m.
