The spinal cord stimulation, or SCS, business is a hotbed of innovation right now, deep brain stimulation also is a key area."

It's Elon Musk's latest change to Twitter's famous lexicon as part of the platform's rebrand to X. Elon Musk's X, formerly known as Twitter, seems to be in the process of renaming its TweetDeck feature "XPro." It's the latest change in Musk's ongoing transition of Twitter to X that has upended the social media platform's hallmarks, such as its lexicon and logo. TweetDeck is still undergoing changes, but its new name, XPro, is starting to appear on the webpage. "If successful, X will enter the vernacular in ways that we don't yet know," Musk wrote on X Wednesday regarding the rebrand.

I've always said that our main competition in the pure electric space is going to be BYD and Geely and Tesla," Farley said.
