Out of interest- what is your recommended path for this? I mean the path of least resistance where I don’t even have to check out the code locally or similar.

Thanks. It sounded like something more since you asked it to look in a few minutes time. I’m not familiar with the cli tool (I just use vscode) but I assumed it was openclaw you were using or something.

How are you interacting with Claude for this?

I don’t disagree with that, but that doesn’t change the fact that overstay fees currently do exist on some EV chargers, e.g. Tesla chargers. I’d also not like to regress and have to wait that extra 5 minutes if possible since I don’t have to currently do that - plug in, leave the car and by the time I’m finished eating (20 mins) it’s ready.

It is also expected that you move your car immediately after filling (then paying) an ICE, in my country at least. Sometimes this can mean people waiting a few extra minutes for them to move their car while they go in to pay.

I wonder what the optimal charge time really is - 5 minutes is short enough that you might have to stay with the car then move it to avoid overstay fines.

If you are stopping for 20 minutes for a bathroom break and a snack every 2 or 3 hours on a long trip that might actually add 5 minutes each time.

Yes. A sperm isn’t conscious, and neither is an egg, but what they create eventually becomes conscious( in humans anyway ) - so therefore consciousness can emerge in something that doesn’t have it already.

Given the correct modifications I don’t see why Microsoft Word couldn’t be, although the modifications needed wouldn’t leave the word processing part a bit redundant.

What’s the best way to loop it?

Really? Perth? You can go on uninterrupted 70mph roads from London to Perth.

Pushing electrons around quickly is only part of the charging experience.

I think the plug situation in the US is different and they only just settled on a standard which is what I assume the parent comment is talking about.

(Up to) 250kW is fine in my Model Y - it’s always charged by the time my family has refreshed on a long trip.

Ironically - if it was faster I’d need to go move it in the middle of the bathroom/food stop.

In the UK most EVs use the standard CCS2 plug.

Best charging experience and best software experience.

Note: I do not want this to be true. Other companies please copy what Tesla has done with both of these. You’ve had years to do this and failed.

AA battery size is black holes. Can’t quite get the technology to scale for AAA so you still have to swap the TV remote.
