Article sucks. Buried the lead that so few of these trucks are registered that they are individual exemptions for them. Just like how you can build your own car from the ground up and get it registered.

So this is exactly what the article is about and up to -4 f heat pumps are more efficient.

If your the son of an hvac guy maybe your information is based on older installed units. I had a heat pump installed in my fathers home in the northeast ( non coastal) and I was shocked it ran well all year. I had heard the some rumor that you had.

Technology advanced and facts change.

This is not a zero sum game. I benefitted by finding Lenny and Lenny benefited from an influx of users.

Reddit hurt its self by damming the social contract with mods. That doesn’t help Lenny.

That isn’t a win, but reddit aren’t going away either.

This seems like it could be a bigger deal than it seems at first. Tesla sold partially on having much better range than competitors . If they used tactics to cover up the real world performance and had a team to specifically deny and deflect customers concerns other auto makers could get in the fray. Even a 10% variance would swing a consumer.

I’m looking for an ev and $ vs range mile is a big factor in my judgement. I’m not the only one.

Not different at all. Actors do mo-cap work all the time and the performance data is owned by the studio and can be reused on different movies without royalties. The studios are trying to extend that. I see both sides. If the actors don’t take a stand it could be tragic.

It’s common in Hollywood for a studio to ask for right in perpetuity for any digital asset. That is so that if they remaster a movie they have everything they need to make it without having to get lawyers and contracts involved.

The directors cut is technically a different movie than then regular one and is different from an 8k remaster in the future.

This is beyond stupid. The cost it would take to create and model enough data to properly recreate an deep learning extra is WELL beyond what it would be to just use an off the shelf VFX created one. They have been using them since the matrix and the technology was well advanced since then.
