Comment Re:How many ways are there to do simple things? (Score 1) 694

I actually remember getting in trouble back in school for having similar code to some friends of mine that used a stack to count the number of A's and B's in a string. Exactly how many was is that supposed to be done? for(all char in string) if(is an A) push else if(is a B) pop if(stack is empty) return true; hooray! plagiarism!

This isnt software. They cant just decide to go gold with that days build and start stamping media. This is a car. In order for it to be produced in 2010, its design would need to be all but final, its production methods laid out, tested, and prepared for, if not already implemented in one of GM's plants. Comparing this process to duke nukem is little more than a +5 funny karam grab.

You also got to consider the likelihood that as full or majority electric power cars start to become popular, you're going to see governments at the state, local and federal level attempting to make up for lost tax revenues. I'm not sure how they'll manage to differentiate between power for transport and power for home/business use, but if there's one thing that the government is good at it's figuring out new and inventive ways to tax people. Suffice it to say, driving one of these, especially on a short commute, will really save money, as well as the environment, but don't count on power being (as) cheap for long if we see a lot of these types of cars take to the streets.
