    PhD level intelligence? Sounds about right.

    Extremely narrow field of expertise ✔️
    Misplaced confidence in its abilities outside its area of expertise ✔️
    A mind filled with millions of things that have been read, and near zero from interactions with real people✔️
    An obsession over how many words can get published over the quality and correctness of those words ✔️
    A lack of social skills ✔️
    A complete lack of familiarity of how things work in the real world ✔️















  • All EVs come with Level 1 chargers that plug in to your standard house outlet.

    Sure, but if you use those it takes a very long time to charge. Like, from empty it can take 40+ hours to charge a battery EV from empty to 80%. If you’re using your car to commute and your commute is anywhere near the max range of your car, that isn’t a viable option.

    it’s super convenient to never go to a gas station again, and to wake up to a full tank

    But, to make that possible, you basically have to have a “gas station” at home. If you own your own house you can modify it to install a charging spot. If you rent, you might not have that option.
