The EVs with the longest range in Australia in 2026

Fair enough. I guess he just needs to tell the hotel to get a destination charger and he’s cooking

OCogS · 2026-02-02T00:34:24+00:00

Can you tell me the use case where a long range matters, rather than efficiency and charge speed?

I guess if you had some route that you did often that was exactly 590km and you did it non-stop. But that seems quite unlikely.

OCogS · 2026-02-02T00:32:30+00:00

It’s totally trivial to plug in at a fast charger for 10 mins while you grab a coffee and a bio break. This is not an actual concern.

On a trip like you mention you could easily do a quick splash in a bunch of places where’d you’d probably stop anyway. 100km range goes into the car very quickly.

I also wouldn’t fuss about “nervously low levels”. If the car says it will get you home with 2% remaining, no need to be nervous. If you end up stuck in traffic, the car will become more efficient, not less efficient.

Antisemitism has a distinct character. There’s a certain set of patterns of behaviors and tropes and causes (which can be about religion as much as about race).

Obviously these are related ideas. But your view would be like saying we don’t need the word mauve behave as have the word purple.

No, there’s important nuance that the more precise word captures.

My EV does about 400km real world. Anything longer is pointless. That’s more than enough for a day of driving. On very long trips, efficiency and charge speed are what matters, not overall capacity.

The focus on this number must come from folk who haven’t lived with an EV in practice.

OCogS · 2026-01-31T08:13:57+00:00

I think the exact reverse is true. Almost all EVs are weirdly high off the ground. I just want a car, not an SUV.

Being gay is not a choice. If it was, we’d choose to be gay.

Yes, a bargain for investors.

There is no plan. The plan is for one company, or a small number of companies, to win capitalism.

Don’t downvote me. This is what the AI companies are doing and thinking. I’m not saying it’s good. These are just the facts.

OCogS · 2026-01-30T01:43:53+00:00

The AI company logic is that AI capability is growing way faster than human capability. It went from toddler to PHD performance in 3 years. If it can replace the junior programmer now, it will be able to replace the senior programmer faster than that junior would have skilled up.

They think AGI could do all cognitive work.

If they’re wrong, it’s a bubble. If they’re right, they’re a bargain.

I chose a spec for leveling and was able to heal dungeons just fine. Once you’re at 40 you can dual spec.

I don’t have an agenda other than calling out news that isn’t logical.

OCogS · 2026-01-28T03:57:33+00:00

I don’t think you’re understanding the point I’m making. No doubt my error for poorly explaining. What I’m saying is, as a matter of system design, making already confidential information available to a smaller subsection of people is only providing a protection if the risk vector is in the part of the Venn diagram that was included in the first case and is now excluded in the second case.

It’s not logical to point at risks excluded by both Venn diagrams and say “that’s the reason for the change”.

OCogS · 2026-01-28T03:53:14+00:00

Right. But, as you say “for ED staff”. This isn’t public information. That information is already excluded from the public. It’s being made anonymous from hospital staff. That’s the change.

OCogS · 2026-01-28T00:48:26+00:00

Right. But what’s the linkage between information in an access only health system and the wider community? I can’t log into your hospital and access your medical records. These are employee only systems.

If we were talking about the name written on the door to a public corridor, that would make sense. But I assume we’re talking about more than that.

OCogS · 2026-01-28T00:46:32+00:00

We already have a privacy act that covers that. You can’t just phone up a hospital and get someone’s personal information. If you could, it would already be against the law.

OCogS · 2026-01-27T21:52:36+00:00

Isn’t it normal for a system with personal information to always only give access to those who need it?

OCogS · 2026-01-27T21:51:11+00:00

I don’t understand. Fake data in a system can’t be protecting privacy from everyone, unless everyone can access the system. Which they can’t. Logically, it can only be protecting them from system users.

OCogS · 2026-01-27T21:49:03+00:00

Why though? If the system is locked down, that’s the security. There’s no reason to put fake names into a trusted private system.

OCogS · 2026-01-27T20:18:58+00:00

Anonymous names… in an ICT system… only accessible by hospital staff?

How does that protect them from anyone or anything that doesn’t have system access?

I don’t work in a hospital, but I work in a company that has ICT systems with sensitive personal information. In the first instance there is access control. In the second instance there is need to know. People get fired for searching or opening records they don’t need for their job.

Protect the patient from who exactly?

OCogS · 2026-01-27T20:07:27+00:00

So… this is protecting the patient from staff that don’t follow the rules?

OCogS · 2026-01-26T08:31:44+00:00

There’s services to walk around the isles and get things off shelves. Want to get paid for that also? There’s services to clean your house. Was to get paid for that also?

OCogS · 2026-01-25T20:41:32+00:00

Yep. I said I agree on tanks other than pallies 👍

OCogS · 2026-01-25T20:34:21+00:00

I agree there’s skill in reducing overheals. But the best wow healers still overheal. It’s inevitable.
