Probably one of those baldness tattoos, weighted for people at eye level.

This is Magic-level taking, but it is so apparent that Durant is a cut above everyone else on the Warriors. Durant showed up last night, but all the other pre-Durant Warriors were sleepwalking.

That is kind of similar to the Clippers team this year. Just a lot of above-average / talent but no superstar.

It annoys me that more league teams don’t just chase solid deep teams like that if they don’t have dominant superstars. Coaches probably don’t like it because they need to analyze and gameplan for more than…

Green should definitely have been suspended for game six. The league won’t do it, but elbowing someone into the ground and kneeing them as you intentionally walk over them should be a suspension. Probably would be on any other team. 

I have further read that Tesla is going to push the 2170 from 250 to 330 in power density. So if we take 465 * 1.33 you get...

That paper seems to indicate it only improves battery life, which isn’t insignificant, but your post contends that the capacitor based regen store would vastly improve overall efficiency of a drivetrain over battery recharging.

You might be right, but capacitors leak charge over time as well IIRC. And ultracapacitor…

Lidar is cool, but it’s just too expensive currently. It is getting a lot cheaper as economies of scale and usual tech systems integration/optimization are applied, but it’s just not there.

The fact Lidar is so expensive is probably holding back Waymo and other lidar centered selfdriving companies. Again, I don’t…

Capacitors would be that much better than regenerative braking systems currently in use? What’s your source for that?

As for 500 miles, 2170 cells in a model s pack would get to 465 if they can do 370 right now.

Tesla is definitely holding back.

2170 chemistry in the model 3 according to

Sports media figures are blowhards, but it is good business to have these blowhards. The guy in question doesn’t seem like he’s out of line with typical beat reporters, although I don’t know.

Why doesn’t the NBA fine the hell out of him? 

I get that the home team in the playoffs gets vastly different calls, but Harden is a guard, and if that officiating change completely nullifies his game, then it really is demonstrative evidence that he is a vastly overrated.

If Giannis got half of Jordan treatment, or a quarter of Harden favoritism, he’d be really really really unstoppable rather than really really unstoppable.

The team for the white folks ain’t underdogs.

Bring on the Giannis

He probably didn’t want to go to a franchise that caters to a single player that takes all the glory and stats and blames everyone else for failure.

Um, I was talking about the Lakers!

There are a lot of taunts in the NBA, but for any guard the ultimate disrespect is backing off their shot.

HGH is the new resurrection potion?

Disclaimer: I have no actual knowledge of HGH use by Tiger. 

They are probably on a long-term revenue exploitation cycle after the initial startup cost of the brand. The EV Minis are coming, but man are they underwhelming (120 miles range), but if they are targeting specific urban commuting use cases, it’s not THAT bad.

Kind of hard to scale up a brand called “MINI” to anything…

The mainline manufacturers are completely beholden to battery suppliers, and they generally use crappy battery designs. The Tesla battery design is currently the best on the market. The other manufacturers currently have vaporware and concept cars still, or have such low production that it might as well be…

They’ve delivered three vehicle lines at price points no one else was able to do at scale. Your statement is comprehensively wrong.

Last I shopped in that segment, VWs were awful on reliability. Minis have since gotten worse and who knows with VW because I don’t even pay attention anymore, but VWs were known to dump all their worst factory output on the US and cover it over with Fahfegnuten / arch / etc advertising.
