That's roughly around what I'm seeing as well as my electric is about the same rate. I'm in the midwest and gas is a little cheaper where I'm at, but it's still significantly cheaper to charge. Supercharging isn't too bad around me but I rarely ever use it. I did get to experience supercharging in California recently and it was probably as much or more than gas there which is probably why you see articles like this.

No one mentions oil either. I probably pay $100-150 a year to change the oil in my other ICE vehicle.

Percentage seems to be the general consensus amongst Tesla owners. The real numbers are in the navigation. We've been looking at percentage based range on gas cars forever. I would argue that gas cars with "mile" range estimates are not that accurate either. At least, that's my experience.

> Cheaply built, but sold at a premium price.

How many successful brands have been built off that one sentence alone?

Seems high, but 20% is around pre 2020 levels of employment.

I somewhat envy people who can meticulously plan like this. When I try to do something like this I love talking about the planning and researching, but putting it all together into a detailed plan stresses me because I don't even know where to start. It starts to make it feel like work. Then there's another side of me that loves spontaneous adventure and just going with the flow. If anyone has any tips to find a happy medium, I'm all ears.

As a musician, guitar tube amplifiers sound better and my ear (mind) will never be changed.

That's what I'm wondering. Is there any idea of how much of say, Bitcoin, is held in cold storage? I saw some estimate a while back that said as high as 70% and that seems high to me for some reason. If true, it definitely speaks volumes about paranoia around exchanges.

It's a bit of a chicken and egg argument. Although, personally, I think big tech needs the network much more than the network needs big tech. The telecom industry of old proves that.

I didn't see this before I posted, but I'm glad that's the case. In fact, it might be great for contributors that don't have a large library or aren't ranked as well.

As someone who has contributed stock to Adobe Stock I'm not sure how I feel about this. I'm sure they have language in their TOS that covers this, but I'm guessing all contributors will see nothing out of this. Fine if this is free forever, but this is Adobe.

That's a great point about just being where certain types of riders are. This probably speaks volumes about the infrastructure for cycling, or lack of in NYC. I'm a cyclist and advocate for more bikes, but there is something about putting motorized transportation (e-bikes, scooters, etc.) even closer to pedestrians that seems wrong to me. Getting hit by a car is no fun, but getting hit by an e-bike going 20+ mph can't be fun either. The number of people to potentially suffer an injury also doubles.

I didn't see any mention of this in the article, but I wonder what percentage is commuting vs. delivery. I was in NYC before and after the pandemic and, just from a casual outside perspective, it seemed that the number of delivery cyclist has risen significantly while commuters has dropped or just stayed the same.

Call me crazy, but I don't think child labor is the solution.

The article lost credibility at the beginning of the second paragraph for me.

"..second-largest bank collapse in American history and the first since the 2008 financial crisis."
