That's an amazing read. The GM guy is shamelessly going on and on about all the ways he will ruin the experience for drivers, so he can extract more money from them with hardware lock-in. Google will cancel the project within a year af

It's a distinction without a difference. Energy is not not a substance. Is a meaure of an entire configuration of states. Forms of energy is an "interpretation", a metpahor. C02 + H20 has less energy than CH3 + O2, because C0
