So is this like a wholly Lambo designed EV? Or are they like taking the Taycan or Rimac architectures and Lambo-ifing it?

But how did that person acquire the copyrighted work? Was the copyrighted material paid for?

That's the crux of the issue, Open AI isn't paying for the copyrighted work they are "reading", are they?

Poor Charles, I can relate to the "brain completely shuts off when put on the spot" syndrome.

I think they'll eventually just consolidate into one company. The demand for grocery delivery is there, so the service isn't going to disappear.

Who's to say you aren't already living in it?

I wonder what the turnaround time is for some of the more mountainous countries like Switzerland to build out pumped hydro.

Independent contractors. They're like employees in almost every way except the legal way.

My completely baseless take: they were fine making the "I hate by husband/wife" jokes while working full time; but once retired and spending time together, they realize they actually really do not like each other.

I'd imagine if you're a young driver, you want to choose Red Bull's academy because it gives you a much higher chance of actually getting an F1 seat compared to Ferrari, Mercedes, etc. This means Red Bull basically gets first pick on every up and coming driver.

Average new car price was $48k source. I wouldn't expect a brand new EV model to come in below that.

How soon until some drivers are mathematically eliminated from contention? Excluding Nyck of course.

Thanks for saying what I was trying to say.

I think the EV subsidies have essentially just changed into additional profit margin.

I would probably say that was their purpose from the beginning. Companies aren't going to do something unless there is profit to be made. The subsidies exist to create that profit.

Now you could say that manufacturers are charging more and the customers are paying more because they know part of the cost will be reimbursed with the subsidies. But that doesn't seem sustainable for long, because all it take is one manufacturer to start dropping prices to attract customers. Then everyone would drop prices to match. We weren't really seeing that previously because everything was supply constrained. But now we seem to be seeing that happen with Tesla at least, they've been dropping prices in the USA recently.
