The risks of driving a vehicle with a combustion engine vs an electric engine in extreme cold is significantly less. The propulsion systems in EV are more prone to failure where as with an ICE, as long as you give the car ample time to warm up, you're fine.

You're dumb because I'm a quality engineer that has access to the data on this problem lol

Then thank God you don't build cars. Jesus, you're dumb.

They're still issues that are actively being worked on in the industry.

Really... so you want to say I didn't read and then you agree with me that there are issues (ie a 10% drop in efficiency)... yeah, you're not very smart....

Seeing as that's not the case with EVs from Tesla, Ford, Peugeot, etc.... the problem is not solved yet.

I literally never said they don't work. You cannot read. I said they have issues, which are outlined in the article. What a joke.

Here's another quote in the article where they're speaking to the American Chemical Society....

"When the battery is used to power a car (discharge mode), lithium ions move out of the graphite anode and cross the electrolyte toward the cathode....lithium atoms that are intercalated in the graphite are oxidized at the anode, which leaves free electrons behind that can travel through an electric circuit.” An electrolyte, by the way, is a gel or liquid that can basically carry electric charge via ions. When the temperature is cold, these chemical reactions are slowed in both directions."

"During colder temperatures, EV batteries do not charge as fast, are less efficient, and will be more affected by electric functions within the car like heating, regenerative braking or seat warming. Why is this the case? Unlike a typical combustion engine-powered car, an EV relies on a battery."

Again... learn to read the article before angrily responding and looking incredibly stupid.

Maybe read the article?

They don't do well in cold temps. It's an issue that a lot of the auto industry is now looking at.

Edit: so absolutely none of you dumbfucks read articles or work in the auto industry.

That was my understanding of it. I can't imagine you'd ever run into a resource issue though unless you were running some intense models. I'd imagine there's more info out there on the limitations though.

So I was just tutoring some kids for the first time today and we tried out colab. I signed in with my Gmail account (no credit card info attached to it) and we were able to start coding immediately so I'd assume the free tier is fine. We were doing a computer vision project as well, so computationally, it wasn't nothing.

No, it's not. You have absolutely no idea what you're talking about and you've repeatedly made that clear throughout your comments on this post.

No, it's a publicly traded company which means it's all shareholders.

There is not a singular owner of Google. You're making the worker's rights movement look terrible right now.
