One issue is that the human was less accurate than the LLM. The other is that the author probably didn't pay $1,500 for this, they probably paid $20 on a subscription.

It has never done that.

While I support this for the humour factor, it does make it much easier for a shoulder surfer to count characters, for whatever that's worth.

Imagine if we had a parallel information network that could coordinate the charging times of all these things in real-time.

> Sure, it doesn't have to be 5 minutes - even 10-15 would be enough - but current chargers don't get anywhere close to that

My car has a 83 kWh battery and charges at 150 kW, which, for 20% to 80% (what you want to generally do on a trip) means 20 minutes. 20 minutes of charge gets me 300 km, and I generally definitely want to stop for 20 minutes every 300 km or so.

I don't see how that's not "anywhere close" to 15.


I don't think RevEng was saying it is impossible to do technically. I believe they were saying the charging infrastructure near their home makes it impossible to do practically as the chargers are often limited to 50-100kW. Aging Wheels did a video about this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ouPiwt5hxXQ

Ahh I see, thanks. Here in Greece chargers are pretty good, though not very many still.

Why would the simpler version be better for a technical audience?

Yeah, all these "work has always been fine!" writers forget that we've never invented cheap artificial people before.


Doesn't it make sense that, if you were taking a drug that reduces morbidity, you'll get increased morbidity if you stop it?

Not if having a heart attack within 1 year at a higher rate is an co-morbidity factor when the primary treatment was for obesity or diabetes (not stating that obesity and heart disease are not positively correlated).

To use a dense analogy: if I stopped brushing my teeth I would not expect to die of gum disease.


I don't think you read the study. The people returned to their pre treatment risk profile after ceasing treatment

In the same way that Christopher Columbus is to be blamed for this comment, sure.
