Turning my eyes to events not marred by corruption and idiocy. So definitely not the Olympics.

Seconding Elixir as a delightful and highly effective tool to solve almost every issue I’ve had.

As someone who’s paid for the full version of Niagara, my feelings are that it was money well spent.

Time to start arming your drones.

Yes, ours does that too. My point is that you have futz around with the timer each time instead of just setting it to the nearest increment of 10% and getting on with things.

Our place came with a decent charger in the garage so it’s really just about me remembering to unplug it before I crash for the night. But I’d much rather dial it it.

Here are some more notes/observations in case they help anyone:

The leaf has a 60kwh battery compared to the 37.5 in the Hyundai.

Surprisingly they have comparable practical range. On a nice spring day 320km on the Hyundai and 380km for the leaf.

The leaf (used, 2024, 8000km) definitely feels like a nicer build and has smoother suspension, the Hyundai (2020, brand new) is feels peppier and (imo) handles a bit more like it is trying to prove something (not in a bad way. It’s just…eager). It also has slightly more granular settings for resistance on the braking side (0-3) an auto-hold feature (press brakes and you’re held in place until you press accelerator) but it’s not possible to drive it one-pedal mode.

The leaf has an “e-pedal” mode that will come to a complete stop if you don’t actively press on the accelerator.

The display on the leaf looks like windows CE OS from the 90s. Hyundai’s is sleeker but they are both in-car displays so you can set your expectations accordingly.

Tldr; Hyundai is more efficient and feels sportier. Leaf feels higher end, drives smoother but burns more watts.

Also air cooled = air flows over the sealed box we keep the batteries in. It’s not spectacular at it’s job. Leafs are the ONLY EV I have ever driven so far that has a battery temperature gauge, and warnings to charge when it’s cool. Hyundai has a non combustible heating/cooling system to keep the cells at optimal temp ( so you can…you know…use the car)

However, I believe this warning applies to fast charging only which we very seldom do.

You cannot. We own both a Hyundai and a Nissan. The Hyundai has a % based charge limiter in the the software.

The Nissan does not. It only has a timer. Figuring out how to charge to 80% involves math I’m unwilling to do.

It’s frustrating and tbh is one of the things that would be easily solved, which is probably why they won’t, and hence my next vehicle will not be another Nissan. This is also probably why their batteries burn out. on average, sooner than the competition.

Coincidentally, I’ve become wayyyyy more willing to dine heartily on the rich!

I mean… We version ours in the url.

/api/v1/some_enpoint

That way if, for whatever reason, you need to roll a breaking change, you do it in a new version mapped to a new url.

I’m sorry for what you’re going through, I’ve been there before.

Don’t these clowns version their API?

Ngl, ever since diving into elixir, I cannot stand OOP anymore. Functional is just better.

As a “foreigner”, “other” or “potential illegal”, I promise to do my part and COMPLETELY AVOID THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA in both travel and purchases. This will allow you to better use your depleted resources and institutions for your own most precious agendas; making America great again or whatever you guys are bleating on about these days in the herd. You can count on me not to drag you down any further than your dragging yourselves down!

Ya got the WHOLE PLACE to yourselves! Hey! Have fun!

My guess is that worm just thinks Tylenol makes brain taste bitter.
