I learned to program in the 1980s. I promise you that for most programs written then the coder was like, “Two digit year, of course. Why waste so many bytes with a four digit year? Nobody will be using this software in 15 years!” And probably 95% of the time they were right…

It’s like using your laptop poolside. Seems cool but actually sucks ass.

“Internal combustion engine vehicles also lose range in extreme cold weather,” points out Ed Kim, the chief analyst with the research group AutoPacific, who was not involved in AAA’s research. The Environmental Protection Agency has estimated a 10% to 30% drop in gas vehicle fuel economy in cold weather, depending on the type of trip. “This isn’t a problem that’s exclusive to EVs. This happens to basically any kind of vehicle when it gets really cold.”

Okay I’ll bite.
