The math for the weight and fly time check out. It’s very unlikely it was a shell

Essentially learned how to use git properly (?) via llm, I would re type each command, over time I learned the whys and hows

This is cool

That really depends, I needed a suspension geometry calculator, vib coded it rather quickly then did some basic layout adjustments, would have taken me a very long tone to make a anything equivalent with different tools

Nice to see the packaging improvements, but the modularity of the original leaf motor enabled them to be come a budget staple motor choice for ev conversion

This is happening now in the openinverter.org community

When you no longer have angency or ownership over your own capital, it’s not capitalism, it’s feudalism.

30000? What? Leaf packs are swap able between years… here in bc 2k and you have a newer pack in

1st gen was LMO

Okay so how are you going to filter all the water in every water shed, pond, lake, estuary, etc?

We could start with just stop cutting down the old growth ones that are still left

Oh yes, the entire heating/cooling system is quite a beautiful bit of engineering. a very elegantly designed “supper manifold” and heat exchanges that can push or pull heat from any device to another in the vehicle. They don’t even have heating elements anymore, they just run the motor less efficiently to produce more heat!

That’s my point really, we just commercialized everything, and introduced a bunch of extra steps. Could argue it enabled us to scale and handle very large amounts of people residing together.

It’s funny how as we increase a nations gdp, and general wealth, we commodify everything. day care, dog walkers, psychical activity, etc and then we have to go back and do all this market research and artificially recreate what was holistic about the more rural way of life.

There really is no free lunch!
