Shoot some photographs (or video frames), make sure there are no duplicates, take hash functions of them, delete the images - and voila, you have the finest true random bits of data.

It's interesting what would be the equivalent result for Chevrolet Bolt, as it's pretty much an equivalent car, but without the advantage of Tesla's supercharger network.

As far as I understand, the car asks the Level 3 charger for a certain amount of volts and amperes, and the charger delivers exactly what the car needs (being able to vary the parameters for each type of car - and yes, those Level 3 DC char

Is there really a HVDC to battery voltage conversion step? I thought the whole point of quick charging is that you get exactly the DC that the battery needs right from the charger.

If charging happens at the place where the car spends most of its time, then even domestic 16A/230V sockets would be enough for typical usage (for atypical usage, there are superchargers).

Electronic e-CVT (that hybrids like the Prius have) and mechanic push-belt CVT (non-hybrid) are completely different things mechanically.

Wow, an image search for the query "engine block heaters public parking" gave me a peek of how our all-electrified automotive future is going to look like. Impressive.

I also noticed that Babel's transpiled ES6 classes suffer from abstraction leaks quite a lot. This is especially bad if you have two classes in the same class hierarchy, where one class resides in a babelified module, and another one i

Semantic difference between default and named exports is that as a user of the module you are forced to choose a name for the default export, and these names will likely be different across different usages of the module. For linking units

Here is the method I used in a similar situation. Start from an extremely loyal linter config where you get 0 errors and 0 warnings with your existing code (that might mean an empty config, but that's OK). Then add rules one by one, fi

TL;DR: The innovation here is that you are officially not required to hold the steering wheel. The requirement to keep your hands on the wheel is replaced by a camera that monitors your eyes to ensure that you are paying attention to the ro

One of my most useful insights in software development is that no matter how smart you are, if you write code that can't be understood by a junior developer, it means that you didn't do a good job writing that code.

Doesn't look like that because exchange rate fluctuation was about 5%. I think it was some human factor issue - "hey, look at this screamingly insecure transaction for a large sum of money, it can't be right". The charge

I'm not sure what was the reason of the refund. It was a mistake of some kind. From what information I could get from the bank, they were trying to charge back the entire sum, but somehow got only part of it.
