I was thinking about my comment today and that I was being a grouchy meanie. Sorry!
No I don’t know the numbers, but yeah vehicle aero tests, even at full scale are very doable. CFDs probably sufficient too. You said you’re a formula fan iirc, so that’s probably something you hear about plenty.

Kudos for your humility, but you just said that you have no idea the magnitude.
I didn’t mean to discount your awareness of the margins of optimization. It’s quite a thing moving the needle in an established market (not to mention the money and years of R&D). But this ain’t it

Well fuck it, I guess I’m ready to take the next step in my radicalization.
The best wording I can think of is late stage capitalism. Someone should be eating their lunch

No dude, your post acts like this couldn’t be anticipated, never mind reported on for years.
Seriously, how many models did Tesla need to figure this out for? They didn’t have a plan 2 years ago?

- Comment on OpenAI’s ChatGPT Agent casually clicks through “I am not a robot” verification test 2 months ago:
My son was looking over my shoulder, or vice-versa, while I bitched about that. It was bikes or motorcycles and I’d always click if I thought there was any amount of it in a picture. He told me not to be so precise, as in, if there’s a tiny bit of handlebar, didn’t count it. That seems to work better… unless it doesn’t like my VPN or whatever, in which case it’s never ending

You know, it’s kind of funny Jack Lemmon is in it. You think the names Jack and (Liz) Lemmon from 30 Rock are a tribute?

Wow, discovering and ultimately unmasking the hacker is a great story.
And from the end of the Wikipedia article:
Stoll sells blown glass Klein bottles on the internet through his company Acme Klein Bottles. He stores his inventory in the crawlspace underneath his home in Oakland, California, and accesses it when needed with a homemade miniature robotic forklift.
I want to know more about this!
