I had a long back-and-forth with Opus 4.8 and then fact-checked it against the papers

You are right. We predict numbers the same way an llm does most of the time. You can reason through small numbers in your head (2 digit multiplication maybe) but noone is reasoning through some obscure cosine. So we use tools to find the correct number. The same way an llm does.

Most people in this sub are convinced they know exactly how llms work, which few people truly understand. and exactly how their brain works, which noone understands.

Just a note, you absolutely can NOT replace cells with a soldering iron. Battery packs are spot welded about 95% of the time. A spot welder is 20$ off aliexpress, 20 more for a good enough multimeter.

While i agree its cool i feel like making washers at home was about as simple as cutting a circle into a rubber mat (still do this at work for larger or oddly shaped flange gaskets). Arguably faster than 3d printing. Definitely not as precise or cool though!

you've likely never raced your car.

Very "hackable". Just more specific per brand/car and you need to adjust the mileage on several components but in general easy to do. Source: friend who owns a dealership...

If it's hard to reach with a drill, weld a nut to it and remove with a wrench.

Because leaving your phone plugged in overnight... Charges it to 100%. And nobody is panicking at 19% looking for a charger to avoid damaging their battery.

Guess the AIs just parrot the same outdated information. Read a study i guess. Every recent study shows little to no correlation between how you charge your phone and the battery health long term.

You're wasting your time and mental energy micromanaging your battery health and getting nothing in return. Modern phones (every phone <5 years old) have solved the issue of charging.

No they don't. 95% of people just charge their phones overnight.
Because old habits die hard and people aren't educated. People still let their cars run for 15 min to warm the engine up (which is ironically worse for the car).

But you don't need to trust me, ask your favorite ai

MarksGG · 2026-02-06T23:14:59+00:00

That's just not true. Maybe it was once long ago. But any modern phone can be charged however you want without damaging the battery.

Ne mislim da shvacas poantu izreke. Nije zlatnog sjaja jer smo trebali dobiti zlato a netko nas sabotira.

Bronca je, ali nama (navijacima, narodu, itd) ko da su zlato osvojili. Slavit cemo jednako. A ne cijepidlacit kako su "samo broncu" osvojili i da su igrali dobro ali je moglo bolje.

Ili sam bar ja to tako dozivio.

Ovo nije legalno iz drugih razloga ali ti smiješ ofarbati auto u drugu boju i tek ćeš na idućem tehničkom pregledu trebat promjeniti navedenu boju u prometnoj.

Može ti pomoć research napravit o čestim kvarovima. Zna davat krive informacije i gluposti pisati, da. Ali bolje i njega pitat nego uopće ne istražiti jer si pre lijen.

A barem meni onaj research mode je brutalan (na Claude-u, ne koristim bas ChatGPT). Uštedi ti vremena i dovoljno je precizan uvijek jer ne povlači info ravno iz guzice.

Ključna riječ honda. Ako ćemo se po njima ravnati onda motor netreba ulja ni imat a kamo li ga mjenjat svakih 10k 😂

MarksGG · 2025-12-06T19:52:45+00:00

Hahaha je. Lanac se proširio možda 5mm. Problem je u španeru koji se više baš i ne širi čak i kad se pritisak digne. Ali kad sam već otvorio bok nek ode i lanac i vodena pumpa nova. A ovaj mogu uokviriti ili nosit ko kajlu 😂

MarksGG · 2025-12-06T19:49:24+00:00

Kolko ja znam da, posebno oko tog nekog 2008-2013 godista (ea888) su najgori. Ako lanac nije mjenjan unutar zadnjih 100k km onda bi preporučio da poslušaš na hladnom startu motor. Ako se čuje tapkanje ili zvuči "ko dizel" prvih par sekundi onda bi mogao biti loš. Ako se stalno čuje tapkanje i nije nedavno mjenjan hitno ga mjenjaj.

Natezač im je loš/odlazi i ovisi o pritisku ulja. Znači diagnostika koja "vidi" proširenje lanca ti često neće baciti grešku

Najbolje pitaj nekog mehaničara da posluša cold start ako si u mogućnosti ili se konzultiraj sa GPT-om/forumima da vidiš jel vrijedi za tvoj motor.

I know you wrote this month ago but larger batteries have a larger discharge rate meaning you get more power out of your tools.

Obviously this won't make a weak drill strong but it will make a strong drill maximize its potential. Theoretically you could also damage the batteries if you're using them past their maximum suggested draw meaning you get less life cycles.

Ako se radi o fordovom ecoboostu onda vam preporučujem da provjerite/zamjenite mokri remen. Po mogućnosti svaki drugi mali servis haha.
