Just adding to what others have already said — overcharging the cells is not something you're supposed to be doing. Overcharging even today's common Li-ion cells, i.e. those in your phone, vacuum, EV or home storage, will lead to

First, that exact situation simply doesn't have an equivalent in the EV world. Quite a lot of people should be able to charge elsewhere (at home, at work, on the street). Second, wow, I live in Europe and I have never seen 64+ cars que

I went in and played a few videos. I'm not sure if anything in there is "sobering" to me (as an EV owner), all the incidents that he shows make sense and the physics are easy to understand. He seems to be pretty knowledgeable

“Number of cells” doesn’t really tell you anything about current and how it will affect the battery. The number of cells in series gives you the nominal voltage of the entire battery, and the P number (number of cells in parallel) rarely te

I believe you meant to write “10S” instead of 10p. I’m not 100% sure, but you were talking about e-bike batteries, which are often 36V, made out of 10 cells (or banks of cells) in series. The nominal voltage of most lithium chemistries is 3

Where do you guys have 55 mph where it's not appropriate? A LLM is telling me that 55 mph is your random urban interstate. The equivalent where I live is 80 km/h on motorways inside city/town limits, which is 50 mph, and it f

Is this something that I’m too European to understand? How do you get “stuck” behind someone doing the speed limit?

All it takes is a sufficiently big pile of custom features interacting. I work on a legal tech product that automates documents. Coincidentally, I'm just wrapping up a rewrite of the "engine" that evaluates how the documents

I feel like there’s one more dimension. For me, 95%+ of code that I ship has been written (i.e. typed out) by a LLM, but the architecture and structure, down to method and variable names, is mine, and completely my responsibility.

And are you not seeing that level of responsibility?

There's a consensus that SOMETHING changed with Opus 4.5. It might have been the "merge rates" metric, it might have not. I'm certainly getting faster and cleaner-looking solutions for certain issues on Opus 4.6 than I w

I feel like the article either doesn't really contain any information, or is describing the concept of "code comments" after being translated through 35 languages.

Well it DOES have less storage than a Nomad (hence lame), but this way you don't need to pay for a public IP address, or for a VPS to run Wireguard on, or for a commercial VPN solution, and then install a terminal emulator on your phon

Acro RC helis are an amazing sight, but it’s not really related to the article. They’re just rotors that can reverse their thrust entirely by changing the pitch angle below zero (i.e. lower than regular helicopters can). Many prop planes us

Bambu Lab A1 Mini is around $200 here in Europe and as long as you can fit into the 180mm cube print volume, it is wonderful. Requires zero configuration and zero prior knowledge. Calibrates itself, reminds you about maintenance. Looks as u

Then who else is still holding a job if a tool like that is available? Manually working people, for the few months or years before robotics development fueled by cheap human-level LLMs catches up?

That's easy. When LLMs are good enough to fully replace me and my role in the society (kind of above-average smart, well-read guy with university education and solid knowledge of many topics, basically like most people here) without an

Yes, as the sibling post says, it's effectively the same in most cameras and it's exactly the same in certain cameras (not many). Unless you, of course, actively fuck up by shooting a very low-exposure (dark) shot with low ISO (th

Note that both very high or very low aperture settings also bring their own optical issues. At very low values (big hole) you’re getting hurt by different aberrations (essentially too many paths the same rays can take to the sensor) and at

I think they meant that you can pad your regular SD card with random data and leave just enough space for a few photos.

Not sure what you mean, just have a coding agent (e.g. Claude Code) and talk to it.
