That’s a weird comparison to make. The Aptera is smaller and uses different materials.
Afaik it’s going to be classified as a motorcycle in many states in the USA, but they’re still aiming for a high rating. I know they have crumple zones and a safety cell made from composites akin to F1 cars.
Whether what they’re planning will be enough, we’ll only know for sure once they test it.

The math works quite well as long as the information is accurate.
Of course things can always turn up to be different in the end product.
But from the information we have now, ~4 hours of good sunlight conditions will be enough for 43 miles.

The body weighs around 360kg, with a 60kwh battery it supposedly weighs around 800kg (the smallest and lightest option is 25kwh), with a drag coefficient of 0.13.
In comparison to some of the most efficient cars - the Hyundai Ioniq 6 is around 1,860kg with a drag coefficient of 0.21. Tesla Model 3 is around 1760kg with a drag coefficient of 0.219.

It’s going to be a whole lot more efficient than the average car just based on these numbers.

Now it depends on how much of the car’s surface will be covered by the solar panel and what’s the panel’s efficiency.

Or 43 miles in Aptera’s case

Just a rule of thumb for the future, don’t use a DRAMless QLC SSD as an OS drive.
Or even just a QLC SSD.

Newmaxx has a spreadsheet with details and recommendations - https://borecraft.com/

I’ve also been thinking of getting the NM790. Just take into account it has no DRAM.

This seems to be a step towards a solution / a solution.

Although there’s a company which has supposedly already solved it completely.
Oxford PV recently had a commercial sale of a perovskite solar panel with a 25 year guarantee

By adapting the formulation and synthesis of the perovskite and the cell design and encapsulation optimization, Oxford PV succeeded in mitigating stability-related deficits and aims at providing future buyers of their modules with the industry-standard 25 year performance guarantee

Kurvitz and Rostov have their own studio called Red Info.
Although I haven’t seen anything about what they’re working on.

And in general I didn’t expect to see praise for a group that has “A Curse Upon the Jews” as part of their official slogan.

Nvidia is also currently building their most powerful supercomputer in Israel. And the CEO has also mentioned the Israeli startup Mellanox (which they acquired for 7 billion USD) as an important part of Nvidia’s success.
He also said “Israel is home to world-leading AI researchers and developers creating applications for the next wave of AI,” as recently as the end of last year.
Considering that, their startup accelerator program with over 300 Israeli startups, and their 7 R&D centers in Israel (Intel has 4 facilities), I’d say that by your logic Nvidia is much more “pro-Israel” than Intel. And it’s number 1 in the OP’s article’s list.

Don’t see any Israelis in the board members or owners. Them and the founders all seem to be American. I did see Bangladeshi-born and Malaysian-born Americans on the board.

You’re doing semantics with yourself.
I wrote that ByteDance is headquartered in China and was founded by Chinese. Nowhere did I write “owned by China”.

Tiktok is owned by ByteDance, which is headquartered in China and was founded by Chinese.
Intel is headquartered in the USA and was founded by Americans.

Intel is investing in Israel for the same reason other companies like Nvidia do (who just acquired another Israeli startup last month and has 7 R&D centers in Israel). Innovation and talent.

Intel is an American company.

If you’re bothered by Israeli involvement you should avoid all the companies in that list, including AMD, as they are all invested in Israel and have Israeli teams.
Even large Chinese tech companies like Xiaomi, which has an R&D center in Israel, are invested in Israel.

Before the current state of Israel, certainly.
And the whole area was Greater Syria for a while too.

Not sure how this is relevant though.

You wrote that Hizballah attacked in response to Israel occupying south Lebanon, which it isn’t.
Either way Nasrallah already said the attacks were in support of Hamas.

Is Lebanon Syria?

Was Syrian in '67 in the six day war.
And Assad still declares it as Syrian territory.
