I miss the little eco driving score that car2go smart cars had. if you drove in an eco-friendly manner, trees grew and birds, etc appeared on the screen. if you floored it and slammed on the brakes a lot, the birds disappeared and the trees died.

FAT32 SHAMER posted:they’re also the big Samsung 18650 batteries used in old vapes strung together and? samsung is probably one of the better lion manufacturers, and 18650 is used in vapes (and everything else) because it's the most common lion size... so many things to dunk on tesla over, but using the most obvious/available lion cell from a high end manufacturer isn't really one of them

FAT32 SHAMER posted:they sold their “advanced battery technology” as a new and innovative black box product and the realisation that that was the big innovation everyone was sold on is why the other OEMs aren’t having the same battery fires that any 2012 vape user probably experienced for themselves eh, pretty sure the "advanced battery technology" was always "look how many cells we're balancing", which really was impressive in 2006. they should have jumped to soft pack cells like everyone else long ago if only for the space savings you get from not using a cylindrical battery, but there's nothing inherently unsafe about the 18650 formfactor or samsung as a manufacturer. how those cells get assembled into a larger pack? yeah, that look to be an absolute poo poo show.

FAT32 SHAMER posted:they’re technically right, but there are other factors at play in how you can design the battery pack and it’s component cells, which is what everyone was actually expecting before getting their hands on one and seeing what was in the black box yeah, pretty sure my position the whole time has been "samsung 18650 cells are pretty spiffy, but tesla probably assembled them in a dumb way". i suppose i did make the mistake of praising their bms work from nearly two decades ago.

Just a Moron posted:Maybe, but the smaller form factor have many more points of failure. Plus the issue at play is surface area vs volume for heat dissipation. Smaller cells individually might be better off, but when you pack them all together, are you really maintaining the same advantage? the "many points of failure" end up being a mixed bag. the cells aren't all in series, they're in an array of batteries in series to get the required voltage (you can't get around this one with a bigger cell -- more voltage requires more cells), then each of those series connected sets of batteries are connected in parallel to provide additional capacity. if you lose a single cell in this configuration, you lose that "row" of cells and have decreased capacity, but the remaining rows still provide the required voltage if you use the minimum number of really big cells in series to get the required voltage, if any one of those cells fail (perhaps due to overheating...), your battery pack is completely offline. re: thermals http://liionbms.com/php/wp_lots_small_cells.php

Just a Moron posted:Tha ks for the link. They seem to evaluating the reliability of the system assuming that individual cells fail in an open state, but what about the possibility of them failing in a closed state that causes thermal runaway? are you asking what happens if a cell is shorted? small or big, a shorted cell is going to go poof, but you're only going to get a shorted cell if the battery pack has been physically compromised. once you're talking about the pack being physically compromised all bets are off no matter how many cells you have -- you're dealing with a fire.

Powerful Two-Hander posted:someone actually said "the proper definition of a microservices is that it has its own database" which seems dumb to me because if it's completely self contained and has its own db then it's an application in its own right and you're just dressing it up to sound clever the idea is that each microservice has its own data store, and only that one service interacts with the data store. you exchange data between services via the interfaces defined in the services instead of using a database shared between multiple services. whether this is a good idea or a bad idea i have no strong opinions. i've seen both ways work well.
