No. Jaecoo (Chinese but not really an EV company) is the third best selling car at the moment. You see a tonnes of BYDs about. We also have Geely and Leapmotor

The cost of servicing an EV is much cheaper, however

I live in the UK and own an EV and this article is misleading in how they get the 90% figure. All off peak charging tariffs in the UK have higher peak energy charges than their flat tariffs - so you make your EV charging cheaper at the expense of higher energy costs elsewhere. For me it’s about break even assuming 6k miles per year.

Also, if you do not have a home charger, you are very unlikely to come out cheaper than petrol. I think 40p/kwh is about the breakeven

Continuations (“function calls”) reduce the amount of optimisations you can do around memory - both space wise and computationally

It can be both

Legacy - they’re blocking

The only people I know with full EVs don't have driveways. It's not really an issue - you can charge when you go grocery shopping

I was looking into this. The M5 performance cores can be scaled down to match efficiency cores in performance and power usage.

I believe they lower the clock speed, limit how much work is done in parallel on each core, and limit how aggressive the speculative execution is so less work is wasted.

The guy you relied to wrote the locking code. If you’re so certain they’re doing it wrong, would it not be easier to just prove it? It’s only one file, and they already have benchmarking set up

I think all UK airports have easy to find water bottle refill stations

JpegXL and AVIF are comparable formats. Google argued you only needed one, and each additional format is a security vulnerability.

> I am curious if the equation of CPU-determined graphics being faster than being done on the GPU has changed in the last decade

If you look at Blend2D (a CPU rasterizer), they seem to outperform every other rasterizer including GPU-based ones - according to their own benchmarks at least

Safari probably is that size because WebKit is a system framework, so it’s just the size of the UI code

The train now approaching platforms 1 and 2 is the…
