| It's Wednesday, November 04, 2020. The ballots aren't all counted yet, but predictably, the president's social media posts have already managed to cross a line with Twitter when it comes to including "potentially misleading" information. Facebook and Instagram are including a label about the facts on each candidate's posts but aren't restricting sharing or hiding them behind a sticker. 
In California, Uber and Lyft spent hundreds of millions to push Proposition 22, which would exempt them from treating drivers as employees, and it appears the measure has passed.

NASA revealed it sent commands to the probe on October 29th, using the recently upgraded Deep Space Station 43 dish in Canberra, Australia. The instructions were part of a test for new hardware, including a radio transmitter that hadn't been replaced in 47 years — before Voyager 2 even launched. The craft is so far away (11.6 billion miles) that Northern Hemisphere antennas can't get in touch, and DSS43 is the only Southern Hemisphere dish powerful enough to send commands.

Walmart has decided to scrap plans to use robots for automated inventory tracking after finding that people could do just as good a job, according to the WSJ. Back in 2017, Walmart started testing the fully autonomous bots made by Bossa Nova Robotics in around 50 stores. They can scan multiple items at a time, and much like self-driving cars, use 3D imaging to dodge obstacles while keeping track of areas that need to be revisited. The idea was that they'd check stock levels, pricing and misplaced items, relieving the load on human staff and reducing labor costs.
