Uber drivers are reportedly manipulating the app to create artificial surge pricing

%name Uber drivers are reportedly manipulating the app to create artificial surge pricing by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Surge pricing is a frustrating, but understandable, compromise that we have to deal with in order to have affordable rides at our beck and call everywhere we go. If the weather’s bad, a major concert or sporting event just let out, or it’s just an especially busy night, you might end up paying an extra few dollars for an Uber. But what if there was a way for drivers to manipulate the service and activate surge pricing at any time?

According to a report from Washington, DC’s ABC7, this is not only possible, but it’s happening all over the country. The local news station originally reported on artificial surge prices at Reagan National Airport last month, prompting Uber to explain that this wasn’t a widespread issue, and that there were safeguards to prevent it.

NASA reminds everyone it still needs another $30 billion for Trump’s Moon mission

So, NASA wants to go back to the Moon. It’s wanted to do it for a while now and has been slowly piecing together how such a trip might happen, but that was before the current administration ordered NASA to get boots on the moon by 2024 or else.

Now, with a drastically shortened timeline, NASA has to figure out how to fast-track a return to the lunar surface. To do that, the agency is going to need a whole heap of cash that it really doesn’t have. NASA has proposed an increase to its current budget, and while it waits to see if lawmakers will approve it, it’s reminding everyone that without another $20 billion to $30 billion, there will be no Moon visit in 2024.

Like everything else in the universe, galaxies are born, live, and ultimately die, and thanks to incredibly powerful tools like the Hubble Space Telescope, we get to see various galaxies at virtually every stage of their lives.

One of its newest observations was just published on the Hubble website and it features the dwarf starburst galaxy ESO 495-21. Its name may lack personality, but it more than makes up for it with a violent heart that is rapidly pumping out newborn stars. The galaxy is packed with large stars that are all quite young, and it shows no signs of slowing down.
