Really interesting and short video to watch on SpaceX's successful launch of its cargo resupply mission to the International Space Station. SpaceX never fails to amaze. #BCSTT

With Obé's new fitness platform, I wonder if this is too late into the pandemic for it to be significant. Like Peloton's stock price dropping when Pfizer announced its vaccine, Obé could see the same fate. Is working out at home here to stay? #BCSTT #G

@SalmanJaffer9 I remember one of the TED talks we watched talked about how these innovations have the opportunity to revolutionize countries on a global scale, not just Western society. I'm glad to see this actually happening. #BCSTT

@NicPM2001 Perhaps a reason for why people do not switch to electric vehicles is because of a lack of charging stations. With a change like this, hopefully it will convince more people to make the transition. #BCSTT

While Zoom will eventually lose its booming popularity after the pandemic ends, it will never phase out of existence. After talking to so many entrepreneurs, it seems like for some employees, working from home is here to stay. #BCSTT

For our generation I definitely think Reddit is of the less popular social media platforms. However, reports say its ad business is growing along with its daily active users. I wonder if we will see an increased targeting of Gen Z. #BCSTT #G

@nickkish15 With the use of cloud tools and AWS, Amazon fails to upset once again. With how expansive they are it seems like there is nothing that they can not do. While their power can be intimidating, they are creating so many opportunities at the same time. #BCSTT

@CKoutsoubis It's really interesting to see how different businesses are adapting as a result of the coronavirus. Delivery prioritizes leisure so I can definitely see this gaining more popularity as time passes. #BCSTT

@profkane It’s unfortunate to see that Twitter was not one of the answers.

With end-to-end automation for building, deploying, and managing #ML models, @DataRobot’s platform helps maximize business value by delivering #AI at scale and optimizing performance over time. See how their latest funding will support global growth: https://t.co/5zNniKUpvF

Relativity Space managed to raise a massive $500M round at $2.3B valuation. In a promise to reduce the cost and speed of assembling a launch vehicle using 3D printing, I wonder what impacts this will have in advancing the industry. #BCSTT

Customers can now buy prescription medications through a new store on Amazon. This seems like a very fitting addition, especially during a pandemic. I am curious to see how CVS and Walgreens will respond to this move by Amazon. #BCSTT #G

@NicPM2001 Although Peloton's stock dropped with the announcement of Pfizer's vaccine, I think it's a poor representation of Peloton's future. While this change might suggest that the need for these products are ending, the pandemic has shown the validity of at-home workouts. #BCSTT

@SerenaAng_BCSTT I think this is a very great move by Mars! More and more people have been turning towards healthier options, prioritizing their well-being, so Kind Bars are definitely here to stay. I can even see them surpassing M&M's and Snickers. #BCSTT

Walmart is looking to make a deal with TikTok that would provide online shopping through the app. In an attempt to dethrone Amazon, I wonder if users will actually use these new services. #BCSTT

Although Lyft’s third-quarter business halved, there were major improvements from its pandemic lows. Perhaps this speaks on the public's confidence with the direction that COVID-19 is heading in, especially with Pfizer's recent reports. #BCSTT #G

@CKoutsoubis Although movie theaters are starting to ramp up again, I honestly think that they'll never go back to the way they were. People and streaming services have realized the advantages of at home entertainment so perhaps the switch is permanent for many. #BCSTT

@JillSherwood6 I have a dog and this definitely seems like an interesting way to get the necessary veterinary help. I feel like some people are less focused on the health of their pets because of the ongoing pandemic, so Chewy could help provide their services with easy accessibility. #BCSTT

While this technology is capable of detecting security risks, it lacks the ability to properly screen temperature. The COVID-19 pandemic has definitely opened up a market for temperature scanners, yet there is no significant change. #BCSTT

When I think about Amazon, I look at common, household items that are affordable and reliable. Luxury and Amazon are complete opposites to me. It is interesting to see what Amazon struggles with as it reflects what the average consumer wants. #BCSTT #G
