Electrics produce maximum torque at 0 rpm …


Yep, I noticed that, you’re right. And that’s near-miraculous efficiency. The maker’s website sez: “YASA also estimates that its all-important continuous power will be in the region of 350kW-400kW (469bhp-536bhp).” It also sez: "To achieve a 750kW short-term peak rating and a density of 59kW/kg … " Devi’ls in the details … The image on the ‘superblondie’ page shows A LOT of cooling built into whatever metal that is: https://supercarblondie.com/wp-content/uploads/YASA-tiny-electric-motor.webp


I think he was trying to admit he doesn’t know shit about electric motors.
Like Starbux, in its hometown.
Buying homes to use as gambling chips is a crime against humanity


Oh those mathers. At least scientists are humble enough to recognize that theorums about the physical world can’t be proven.


Hopefully it gets done in a shorter time than Wayland took.


Oh noes, how could that -possibly- scale?


It was a decent summary, I was replying when you pulled it. Analog has its strengths (the first computers were analog, but electronics was much cruder 70 years ago) and it is def. a better fit for neural nets. Bound to happen.


Nice thorough commentary. The LiveScience article did a better job of describing it for people with no background in this stuff.
The original computers were analog. They were fast, but electronics was -so crude- at the time, it had to evolve a lot … and has in the last half-century.


Stories based in science? I can dig.


Lots of wannabe authoritarians out there in educationland.
All those decades that the schools just -couldn’t afford- more (well-educated) teachers and smaller class sizes. Lots of low-end look-good.
And then along came tech, and lo-and-behold, IT was going to be the savior. Let’s buy into that! We may not be able to teach them to read, write or think, but they can learn to kneel!
Going by ‘colour’, I’d guess that headline came from the UK. Writing them is a tricky, trippy task.
