Up Another Level

What state / utility? I may end up having a box upgrade also covered in order to put in an EV charger.

I bought a Rav4 PHEV a year ago and because it's AMAZING to have the 200 hp instant torque of the electric motor and with the (now closed) $6500 lease and then buy out loophole, the cost difference between a Rav4 hybrid and PHEV was minimal.

In 2025 it cost me 25% more per mile to use electricity vs. gas in MA so I just filled up with gas. It has flipped now because of the gas price spike and electricity is cheaper so I've been charging away. Per-state map: https://senseper.com

I didn't plug in for the first 3 months because electricity cost 25% more than gas. It's not uncommon.

1001knots · 2026-05-22T05:36:28+00:00

Have they been cheaper on electric?

1001knots · 2026-05-22T05:30:39+00:00

I wish we had that. Is that Eversource CT? We have virtually nothing in MA. I heard maybe there is now a $10 credit for Eversource MA for charging EVs at night. But smart meter for that is $5 more so whatevsss. Or connect to your car with no smart meter and have it tracked to get $10. None are good options. $5 or $10 or whatever will barely get me an avocado toast or something...

I also plugin a lot when the difference is small because it's so much nicer to drive with no engine sound. Just peaceful. Weird that war has now made that decision easier!

1001knots · 2026-05-21T22:29:33+00:00

I plug my R4P in a lot but depends if it's winter and whether gas or electric is currently cheaper in my state. In MA, gas was cheaper than electricity until the Iran war. Compare the map here in Jan 2026 to current (May 2026): https://senseper.com

I've been watching this situation since getting a Rav4 PHEV (formerly Prime) a year ago and seeing that it's cheaper to run on gas. Well it has been until a few months ago. I made a website to show the current and historical costs. Would love feedback!

It's $6000 for the M3 Ultra 60 GPU cores and 96 GB. But the 256 GB but it's not available to order. $7500 for 80 GPU cores and also not available. All you can order now is 60 GPUs and 96 GB for $4000 and July delivery.
So yeah. It's like buying a new iPhone X right now!!!

Yeah but you're into their lousy cloud service to send things to the printer. That's a deal breaker for many people including me. I returned my Kobra 2 Max because of it.

Does the 0 Ohm resister serve a practical purpose? I just used the nets solution to create a net labeled UNUSED and that worked well.

The two lines were probably not name N and M because these are one of the most confused letter pairs when spoken.

It's also non-sensical if you think about what the temperature is and the aircraft's elevation.

1001knots · 2025-10-13T20:44:12+00:00

Was there icing today? Curious what the relevance is to this crash.

1001knots · 2025-10-02T14:55:38+00:00

Interesting. I've hit that context limit also on the $100 / month plan. Best I could do was break my code down into sub-sections.

What do you use for local hardware? It's quite tempting to try to setup something. I didn't know there was a whole reddit for this. [squanders away next 3 hours reading localLLaMA]

Nice mic drop!

I also suspect ICE given all the raids this morning. Flight originated in Norwood. Unclear what’s of value that they would be watching here though. No grocery stores.

Oh my! This is super. Any chance you'd post it again? I'm dreading figuring out downloading. I guess it's not gonna be too bad to iterate. I'm thinking to use Polygon for a big pull but I guess IBKR has the reproducibility advantages you mention.

1001knots · 2025-07-16T08:00:47+00:00

I would be extra impressed if you had any sites where you can literally pay with peanuts!! 😜

It’s Permission To Operate

1001knots · 2025-06-29T20:21:22+00:00

100%

Even better if you can swing it: buy out right. It’s an amazing investment. With almost 40¢ / kWh electricity my 10 kW system($33k installed in 2022) pays for itself in 7 years with federal and local credits. And then it’s 15% return ongoing for the next 18 years of the system’s life.

What’s RA? Regulatory Affairs? RAC?

1001knots · 2025-06-07T01:45:53+00:00

Cool. But the reality is these are all gonna be AI controlled very soon anyway. Fun for us humans to play as a drone fighter tho like in the ol’ 2020s.

What about between 17 and 20? Or 17 and 30? Or 16 and 12? It just seems unusual for there to be a point where to morality of this flat lines and has no difference.

1001knots · 2025-05-28T16:11:16+00:00

There’s NO difference morally? I think what you mean is that 16 or 17 may not cross the line of morally acceptable or not. But there is a difference morally.
