According to the press release, they will be building those adapters and they will be available in 2024.

Pre ~2020 North American Tesla's can't speak the CCS protocol and need a $200 upgrade to speak it. Presumably many of the Superchargers don't either. I imagine the delay is to upgrade the Superchargers to speak the CCS protocol so that a dumb adapter may be used rather than having to build an expensive smart adapter that can do protocol conversion.
It's not reasoning, it's predicting likely text, which it can do because the bits of input you provide overlap with enough bits in its training corpus, because most programming tasks are repetitions of similar patterns. The outcome approximates reasoning in some cases but the process is completely different. It is not building up from principles, it is sifting down from examples.
"data-*" attributes don't require any JavaScript; their values can even be accessed from CSS with `content: attr(data-*);`
Or you know, someone was just overworked and pushed a change without writing tests for it.
CCS current spec/design can deliver up to 350kW (although few if any cars can take advantage of that today).

NACS claims it can provide up to 1MW (1000A @ 1000V). I think it will be a while before we see cars able to charge anywhere near this, but there is a trend right now of big EV pickups with massive batteries. Higher power chargers means faster charge times.

The only downside I see with NACS is you can’t level 2 charge using 3-phase power. This isn’t really an issue in North America because it’s super rare to see 3 phase power at someone’s home. In most of Europe homes do have 3-phase power and large loads like an EV are required to use it. This is one reason why Tesla uses CCS2 in Europe. The NACS connect doesn’t have the space for a 3rd power pin.
Most assuredly not the same as someone getting in your face as you're walking by as part of their generous volunteer effort to save you from your sorry life.
Programmers write programs. Programs run on machines. Machines have devices.

The "turing machine" is an abstract mathematical concept, perhaps better stated as "a means of generating sequences of whole numbers". It isnt a device, nor does it have devices "connected".

Insofar as CS studies turing machines, it's simply doing discrete mathematics. The job of programmers is engineering: building devices whose behaviour is useful to their users.
I think "with" should be capitalized but "for" should not. I believe AP style guide says that propositions that are four or more letters should be capitalized.

That sounds concerning, as the list likely has no proof and could easily be used to ban and discriminate against folks. In fact any startup passing that list around is one I’d never want to do business with because it seems pretty gross.

100% of that energy cost is the electrolysis, recycling has no comparable step. There are additional energy costs for processing the aluminum into useful items on top of this that are roughly the same for primary and recycled aluminum.

Overall, recycled aluminum requires only about 5% of the energy that primary aluminum requires.
One thing about scripting languages is that it doesn't seem like a hugely meaningful choice anymore.

GPT-4 can easily generate trivial scripts in any language.

Any complex codebase can be maintained in a typical language.
The form factor is significantly smaller, which means it’s easier to use. But more importantly the charging connector has no moving parts. A common failure on CCS chargers is that the locking pin breaks and the charger will no longer stay firmly attached to the vehicle causing charging issues. On the NACS adapter the locking pin is on the vehicle.

Charging infrastructure sees significantly more duty cycles than an individual car so it makes sense to move the wear part to the vehicle.

I've never really liked JSON as replacement for XML. Had we continued with RSS, Atom and XML, not only would we make peer to peer distribution far easier, we'd have a very easy publishing mechanism.

But we threw out XML for JSON.
With JSON we need loads of custom, client side code to turn it into a DOM that the user can look at. With XML we only need XSLT. It won't work for all cases, but the majority of sites wouldn't need a single line of JS to renders sites. Yet here we are: shadow DOM, event listeners, useeffect, JSX, progressive hydration, and so forth and so on. To build web-experiences that we could deliver back in early 2000 but were deemed too complex and too daunting.

Money well spent. And congrats on getting sober. I'm about a year into a my own journey, actually sort of the reverse of your situation - I went on a big bicycle trip (3000 miles) and the sense of agency I had coming home from that spurred me to take control of my substance issues.

In a way more similar to yours, I have planned an escape valve for myself should I come close to committing suicide. I've had a couple near misses, and it's been important for me to realize that I can...just leave. If I'm going to die otherwise, work can wait. Bills, relationships, expectations can wait.

Just get in a car, get on a train, whatever, and leave town.
The alternative here is that people are more of a burden on the community, not less. It's more disruptive to have noobs asking the same questions and having to be answered by community members every time. At least from where I sit.

I don't think asking noob questions makes you part of the community in the way it matters here - actually contributing.
I would politely remind you that people, myself included, are fully cognizant of everything you have said but are still switching away from Reddit. You may want to take a minute to think about why that is, without sarcasm or the presumption of stupidity.
Legal compliance has a way of increasing focus on certain bug fixes, particularly if there are potential non-trivial fines :)

I left the city last year after living there for over a decade. I'm now out in the suburbs in an older neighborhood with lots of trees and big lots. I live alone and I've never been happier. Love how peaceful it is out here, and my neighbors mostly keep to themselves.

I do wonder whether much of the introversion/extroversion problem boils down to those who have a rich inner life and can become lost in thought for hours and those who require constant external stimulation. It is likely a spectrum.
Is it terrible? I know everyone says it is, but for example on iOS it has a 4.8 rating over 2.8M reviews. Apollo, the really popular 3rd party client, has a 4.7 rating over 170K reviews.

So, clearly someone likes the Reddit app, right? Those millions of 5 star reviews are definitely not fake/bought.
Exactly! And also keep in mind that all of this is open source created by volunteers like you and me in their free time. Imagine you and me working on a side project like this during weekends. We will probably be focusing on implementing the protocol right, fixing all those rendering and mundane CSS issues, making sure the login and session management does not have security holes. Essentially get all the functional stuff right. And one day Reddit makes some crazy announcement which drives hoardes of people to our little project. Pretty sure we'll not be prepared enough to deal with scaling issues due to the sudden influx of new users.
This is exactly what I do, save with natural keys.
I have had a colleague describe to me the lingering smell of ozone when he was able to unplug CCS1 while charging. The charger and car dutifully stopped charging and the charger nagged to Not Do That but it certainly left that ozone wafting...

I wonder if things looked different if you had a legal team and deep pockets.

It's worrying that this concentration of wealth and such services acting as gatekeepers and essentially deciding whether you can run your business or not are not properly regulated yet.

I mean, it certainly plays into hands of big corporations, who don't want to see new players and challengers on the market.

The way things seem to be going is talented people shouldn't run their own business, but rather be employees of big corporations and help shareholders buy new private jets and so on.

In my opinion, company like Stripe shouldn't be allowed to block small business like that.

I agree. I am a moderate TV user. I bought a new one about 3 years ago, and went with a 65". I could have fit an 80 on the wall, but it didn't seem necessary. And I'm glad I didn't. The 65" is already too big if you get up off the couch and stand nearer to it. It's kind of disorienting to watch from any closer than the opposite side of the room. And it was a mid-range TV at the time and still looks plenty good for me. I don't foresee upgrading anytime soon, unless something goes wrong. Honestly the thing I like the least about it has nothing to do with the display. It's the annoying Android software.

I think the frequent advice to lonely people to "go talk to a professional (therapist etc)" has the same kind of effect in such cases. A sense that they can't even have people for support as friends etc, and they need to pay someone to do it or at least have someone do it only as their job description.
It's a shame there is no regulation protecting small business from these practices. It shouldn't be legal for a big corporation to shut down someone's business on a whim.

Are they growing corn in places that have water problems? I thought corn was largely grown in places that don’t need much irrigation, or at least isn’t having problems with its water table.
Amen. An addendum, if I may: when considering "toxic" please be wary of all-or-nothing cognitive fallacies. People who have one trait or belief or habit that you disagree with (even if strongly) do not necessarily come saddled with other things you might presume (ie just because they're catholic doesn't mean they're a pedo, just because they have tattoos doesn't mean they're a criminal, just because they have guns doesn't make them a white supremacist, etc.). People are complex, and you might be missing your best friend for life if you are prejudicial.

It was this type of setting that showed me the huge difference between being lonely and being alone. I'm rarely lonely when I'm alone. Thankfully I have long since engaged in social activities and have a great social life now, but even still that feeling is just below the surface. I went to the club with two girls the other night and when they both went to the bathroom together I was by myself in a club and even though I knew it was just for a few moments that old feeling was right there again. We are indeed social creatures.

The point is that the work device (whether it's a phone or laptop) can be turned off at the end of the day and stuck in a drawer to charge. It's not about the device, it's about not opening up a channel to your personal life to interruptions from work. One (but not the only) straightforward way to prevent this interruption is to physically separate devices. There are probably other ways.
The tooling is great, don't get me wrong. But as soon as you need to do anything that slightly deviates the norm in Unreal engine, you're constantly butted up against broken features, or terrible performance. I can't count the number of times we had to fix a feature or some silly performance problem that was broken in the engine itself.

The latest of which was Iris (to be fair, it is in an early state, but it is a major improvement to ue4's replication), there are some baffling design choices that deliberately made it way harder to make custom serializers for networking.

It's not all sunshine and rainbows. It mostly depends on if you walk the well trodden path or not.

Since EvGO and Chargepoint seem to be public companies, I looked up their financial statements. It's not pretty. They are all bleeding money and that's with machines that people complain are down a lot. Chargepoint is in a slightly better spot because their Level 2 chargers seem to be somewhat better in the profitability department, but still losing tons of money.

And that's not really surprising. If you look around at quotes, installing a single DCFC charging stall of 150Kw or better looks to run about $100k per stall plus significant installation costs almost matching that.

At $100k for the stall itself, and if we assume $.50/kwh (a bit higher than most EVGO stations I see around here) and we assume $0.16/kwh electricity (residential rate here), that means each kwh sent to a car has a profit of $0.34. So the stall would need to dispense 294,117kwh of energy to pay for the stall itself. If the average rate of dispensing to a car is 100kw (which is probably high even without leafs and bolts due to charging curves) in 15 minute intervals, that's 11,765 cars that need to charge for 15 minute intervals to break even on the equipment itself, so an average of 32 cars charging per day (assuming my math is right, which it may not be).

32 cars per day at 15 minute average charge times means the stall has to be utilized 33% of the day. That paypack doesn't count maintenance, install fees, repairs (they are always breaking down), kickbacks to the land/building owners, etc... And many areas of North America doesn't get electricity for $0.16/kwh (though some are cheaper)

The math definitely feels to me like it's really hard to make DCFC stations profitable in much of the US, especially until EVs become more prevalent.
What sort of personality did you expect the man responsible for the Gallic Wars to have? He was a genocidaire, a slaver, a rapist, and more. All of these 'great' historical leaders were murderous shits when viewed from a modern perspective. The 'nicest' Roman Emperor was an utterly terrible human being by our standards. But that doesn't mean there is no benefit to learning about them.
Nice work! I like that you have included support for prefers-color-scheme, which is one of the more highly-requested features for these kinds of frameworks.

> The third party chargers don’t seem to act like they have a reputation to uphold. Also, I’m not convinced they’re even really motivated to have people use their stations.

They do care but technology is unforgiving. Tesla is many iterations into improving their station reliability, they are vertically integrated and their station are very simple. The production volume is far, far higher leading to improve quality.

The competitors like EA, in their effort to scale simply have 3-4 different providers put into the same box. Different hardware, different software and so on. And then also a NextGen version from all these providers.

Their stations are much more complex, with screens and so on. So the failure rate is far higher and repair is much more difficult.

I think you are underestimate the challenge of how difficult it is to role out such an infrastructure and maintain it specially when you are just a service provider, not an actual engineering company. Tesla just made it look easy and everybody expect that any other company could do the same, but they can't.
> How to switch that to an all-electric system?

Simple, most residents of the town won't be at those stations regularly. Most of my DCFC charging sessions have been because I've been wanting to try out different locations and charging equipment, not because I needed the DCFC. In reality, the vast majority of miles my EV will do will not need any public charging infrastructure, at all.

Meanwhile, 100% of the miles on my ICE will need public fueling infrastructure. I inherently need to go to a pump sometime to get gas.

> But if you do this at scale electricity costs go through the roof and you're back to the same pricing problem as above

I don't think its as big of a deal as you're thinking it will be. Sure, some percentage of homes out there don't have >100A service at home and will probably need some kind of upgrade to their home service necessitating new equipment up the chain. But for my household to swap out an EV? About 15 feet of power cable, a circuit breaker, a double-gang box, and a NEMA 14-50 outlet was all that was needed.

My peak power usage in the house didn't change at all adding the EV. My EV uses the same amount of power as running a burner on the stove while doing my laundry (electric dryer). Meanwhile my house (and the rest of the grid up the line) was designed for me to pull enough power for me to cook in the oven, on the stove, do my laundry, run the AC, power all the lights in my house, and more. Guess what, I'm not often cooking and doing laundry at 2AM, and I probably already got my house cooled down by then so the AC isn't often cranking that hard at that time. Take a guess when my car charges.

So how much did it cost the grid to add my car? $0.
