EV Realty is betting the missing link in electric trucking is real estate

Electric commercial trucks are starting to take off. And that progress comes with a new slate of challenges for operators grappling with how to build out charging infrastructure for their growing EV fleets. Given grid constraints, that’s not always possible. EV trucks are one of several energy users currently searching for space on an increasingly crowded electrical grid.

You can hold on to your butts thanks to DNA that evolved in fish

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-09-21 01:19:24

Evolution has adapted the digits of mammals for an enormous range of uses, from our opposable thumbs to the spindly digits that support bat wings to the robust bones that support the hoofs of horses. But how we got digits in the first place hasn't been entirely clear. The fish that limbed vertebrates evolved from don't have obvious digit equivalents, and the most common types of fish just have a large collection of rays supporting their fins. Despite this uncertainty, we have identified some ge

Sure, it’s easy to argue for the importance of spending on science by pointing out that many of today’s most useful technologies had their origins in government-funded R&D. The internet, CRISPR, GPS—the list goes on and on. All true. But this argument ignores all the technologies that received millions in government funding and haven’t gone anywhere—at least not yet.

I got the highest score on ARC-AGI again swapping Python for English

I think ARC-AGI is still the most important benchmark we have today. It’s surprising that LLMs can win the math olympiad but struggle with simple puzzles that humans can solve easily. This highlights a core limitation of current LLMs: they struggle to reason about things they weren't trained on. They struggle to generalize. But they are getting better, fast. Last December, I got first place on ARC-AGI v1 with a score of 53.6%. A lot has changed since then. Thinking models had just come out and
