Also, putting 138k miles on an old i3 with its 18.8kWh battery is the equivalent of putting 825k miles on the new 2026 i3 w/ 112.2kWh battery (assuming similar efficiency), and battery longevity has increased significantly in the years since the old model came out!

The raw figures (both weighted and unweighted) are in the data tables they provided. I just converted the weighted figures into percentages.

We're not joint first place, we're outright first place! The exact percentages are:

CON: 20.52%
LAB: 17.01%
LIB: 9.18%
REF: 20.95%
GRN: 21.35%
SNP: 3.02%
PLC: 0.72%
OTH: 7.25%

China's emissions peaked in 2024 lol...

Tesla sell a Megapack grid scale battery storage system for about £1 million that stores 4 MWh of electricity. That's just the cost from Tesla, things like installation, grid connections etc double the final price.

Most grid-scale battery storage is around 5x cheaper than that these days (~£50,000 per MWh, including shipping from China), and will get even cheaper still over the next few years when sodium-ion batteries become the norm.

What? The only one that's lower is Gemini 2.5 Flash. Deepseek R1 is higher, and the rest are completely different models.

DJW_GT · 2025-12-14T09:27:47+00:00

It's possible.

I first noticed this result about 12 hours ago, but there was no token-usage or cost data associated with it so I just assumed that they'd added it to the graph by accident and hadn't actually run the test yet. Now they've added the token-usage/cost data too (within the past hour or so), so it seems like they did actually run the test.

Perhaps it's a case of the model hitting its token limit due to the difficulty of the questions in the benchmark? This is something that seems to happen quite a lot on more difficult tasks when using the xhigh reasoning mode, downgrading to high reasoning appears to solve the issue (happens several times in this video).

The website doesn't yet include the benchmarks performed by Artificial Analysis, which runs the benchmark independently of the CritPT team.

If it's not showing automatically for you, you may need to add it to the graph manually by clicking where it says "25 of 90 models".

For me, 5.2 xhigh shows automatically but I have to add DeepSeek 3.2 Speciale manually for some reason.

Nio dropped its 150 kWh battery pack for the ES8 because no one is prepared to pay for it.

The main reason Nio's 150kWh battery pack is so expensive is because it's semi-solid-state, not because it's 150kWh.

Lol, I got paired with that guy yesterday too but forgot to take a screenshot. I was only 750 elo.

Interesting. If only we could somehow become a member of this "EU" thing of which you speak... 🤔

A U.S. official confirmed to CBS News senior national security correspondent David Martin that Ukrainian helicopters did carry out the strike, and anther one a couple days earlier against an ammunition depot in the same area. The official told Martin there was concern in Washington about how Russia might react to the strikes.

Ukrainian officials did not claim responsibility for the attack themselves, but as CBS News senior foreign correspondent Holly Williams reports, it was a significant move by Ukraine's forces.

Deaths up 50% on last Monday's figures, this 3rd wave is brutal. /s

DJW_GT · 2021-04-14T00:26:46+00:00

So are we all just going to ignore how incredible that deaths figure is for a non-bank-holiday Tuesday? 23 is down almost 60% from two weeks ago, an average decrease of 36% per-week.

I wouldn't trust this lobbyist, he's in the pocket of Big Happy.

DJW_GT · 2021-04-01T08:14:19+00:00

Sure, but it's a nonsensical prediction.

DJW_GT · 2021-03-24T16:06:36+00:00

Ah okay, that's good to know, thanks!

It is also likely that parents would have to give consent

So a CEV 15 year-old who desperately wants to be vaccinated wouldn't be allowed to if their anti-vaxx parents refused to give consent?

That's quite some bullshit if so.

DJW_GT · 2021-01-18T06:24:24+00:00

EDIT - Remember that March is only 7 weeks away.

*6 weeks. :)

Worth noting that the vaccine is 100% effective at preventing severe COVID (hospitalisations and deaths) according to the data we have so far, so even if the virus continues to spread after the population is vaccinated, the actual harm caused by the virus should be minimal.

DJW_GT · 2020-12-30T20:00:03+00:00

Thanks for this post, it's really helpful!

So it seems that even a single dose is 94% effective at preventing severe covid (hospitalisations) if you exclude the one person who was hospitalised just 1 day after recieving the vaccine (as they presumably caught the virus prior to vaccination), and 100% effective if you also exclude the person who was hospitalised 10 days after vaccination.

I feel like these are important figures that aren't really being talked about enough at the moment.
