  • Do Bolts support DC fast charging? Because that’s how Tesla Superchargers operate.

    If they do then you would need an adapter from NACS to CSS and you’d also need to set up a Tesla account. Superchargers are “automatic” in that they read the VIN of the car when plugged in and use that for billing. I believe Tesla is now supporting non-Tesla accounts but haven’t looked into it at all…







  • It’s been roughly 20 years now but my employer at the time had a number of servers that started having odd drive failures at similar times. Long story short we eventually discovered that it was the power supplies that were starting to fail.

    These servers had something like 6 hard drives in them, and while troubleshooting we started seeing a pattern where any 5 would work, but as soon as the 6th was reconnected then drives would randomly fail. We eventually replaced the power supply and all 6 drives were happy again.



  • Here’s the thing about science: If you had the ability to purge all knowledge of all science, written, in people’s memories, etc. then over time we woul relearn it all pretty much exactly the same. It may take centuries, and what we know today as Pythagoras’ Theorem or Einstein’s theory of relativity would likely have different names for them. But the underlying science behind them will be 100% identical once they are “re”-discovered. Everything we know today about math, physics, electronics, etc. will eventually be relearned.

    The same can’t be said for any religion. Wipe out ALL knowledge of all religions and new ones will spring up with completely new stories to try to explain beliefs to groups of people.


  • I certainly don’t have an understanding of how many aspects of science works but I trust it. I trust all the science that goes into making my car operate safely. I trust the science that makes my smartphone and the internet work. I trust the medical science that cured my dad of cancer and healed my brother after a bad accident. I trust all the science involved in providing safe food and water for many millions of people.

    I’m also an atheist.
