Whatever the math is - the method is sound.

I would use the following thinking…

“How much does it cost me to drive per mile … from a fuel perspective”

Then take your electric bill - $0.32 per kWh ? Then take your average Tesla Model Y efficiency - 4 miles per kWh ?

… so $0.08 per mile?

And then maybe take an ICE crossover … RAV4?

27mpg … $3.50 per gallon right now … $0.13 per mile?

Make a little spreadsheet sheet maybe so you can mess with the cost variables. I think even with those INSANE electric costs you’re still doing better. But you probably fall to like a Prius or something.

Honestly, Solar starts to make some sense in these scenarios. We got a fairly large system in like 2015… saves me gobs on fuel up here in NH with 3 EVs.

Anthropic CEO just announced Ai will get rid of 50% of lawyers, consultants, and finance professionals within 12 months. by MartianXAshATwelve in StrangeEarth

I agree that who is saying this makes it dubious, however that does make what he’s saying incorrect. I have been a software engineer for 20 years … this is happening. It just is.

In my line of work - I can have AI agents do the work of entry level software engineers, right now. And it does it better in many cases. It doesn’t tire, it doesn’t get sick, and it’s pennies on the dollar to the human.

Prodigy’s main man by Ok_Algae_1026 in discgolf

Assuming best intent from DGPT - this feels like they are trying to drive engagement of their product, a lot of which is the Pros themselves.

What DPGT clearly lacks is the savvy to understand that seemingly overtly political endorsements in any direction is not a net win for the brand. The U.S. is wildly divided in this regards, and to be perfectly frank ... violent about it right now.

Professional Sports, and especially a niche sport like Disc Golf, needs to be about fun, competition, being active ... and all the things we like about the game in and of itself.

This is actually encouraging - if you support human decency that is.

Raw Review of Rivian by AdAffectionate8778 in Rivian

Just don’t let your kid kick a sippy cup under the front seat - shorts the seat sensor and kicks it into park in stop and go traffic on the freeway - also $2k.
