Actually I tried that route with other ideas because I was suffering from depression and thought if I had good ideas someone will steal them and I will be vindicated.
It was the 'bending perception' comment wasn't it.

I don't have people to collaborate with so I made more me in my head to talk with.

I just went in my memory for a bunch of "these ideas almost work but don't quite, but they seem so attractive and maybe they could be made to work" type ideas and that was the first one that came to mind... xD
16:51
I touched on this subject when researching electric buses and the possibility to use battery module hotswapping on the terminal stops
TL
16:52
Trader Lenny, the forgetful scholar. Leader of the biscuit Brigade in service of the Church of Dadbod
Requires the infrastructure idea to support it but electric cars are becoming the future bet.
A
16:53
Aezzy
With electric buses, the infrastructure part was already solved (the terminal stations in question could be built of any design and could involve any extra mechanics)
TL

Trader Lenny, the forgetful scholar. Leader of the biscuit Brigade in service of the Church of Dadbod
Told you child's idea.
A

The battery swapping wasn't working out because it's hard to actually swap these things in a fully satisfying way

Everything already exists.

TL

Trader Lenny, the forgetful scholar. Leader of the biscuit Brigade in service of the Church of Dadbod
Redesign the battery compartment.
A
16:54
Aezzy
The measure of success here is that you can let out more electric buses out on the line, faster, and cheaper as opposed to charging them like normal
16:54
The problem isn't in any one specific issue, there is no one killer issue to solve here to make it all work
16:54
It's a combination of logistics of moving battery from and to the bus (vehicle), logistics of moving batteries after they leave the vehicle and the operational requirements (maintenance and such) of the entire assembly
16:55
From the problems as simple as "the bus drivers get lazy and can't stop over the target area" to "this is a lot of sensitive mechanics that needs constant care/not reliable enough for routine heavy use" (maybe not as big of an issue with cars? :P)
TL
16:56
Trader Lenny, the forgetful scholar. Leader of the biscuit Brigade in service of the Church of Dadbod
But you get it.
16:56
The idea could change everything.

Even though it already exists
16:57
The better potato peeler
A
16:57
Aezzy
It's one of those ideas that doesn't have any big specific downside, just a lot of tiny downsides that pile up on each other when you try to put it into practice
16:57
Once you resolve everything about mechanics of ejecting battery from the vehicle and putting it back flawlessly and for cheap, you've now solved only half of the tiny issues
TL

Trader Lenny, the forgetful scholar. Leader of the biscuit Brigade in service of the Church of Dadbod
I think I have most of the bugs worked out I just need smart people to bounce it off of.

Now you're left with the other half - the lifetime of all connecting elements (contacts, connectors) and mechanical elements (guide rails, wheels, sliding stuff whatever)

Yep.
16:59
Have some rude drawings for all that.
17:00
Once I considered a lazy Susan design but tossed that out as problematic.
A
17:00

Consider how you can swap the battery with the vehicle when it's horribly misaligned
TL
17:00
Trader Lenny, the forgetful scholar. Leader of the biscuit Brigade in service of the Church of Dadbod
Will work on that now... Well one of the voices already is drawing.
A
17:01
Aezzy
The vehicle is rotated by 160 degrees relative to the proper orientation, it's tilted onto the side slightly by 20 degrees, as far from being level with any surfaces around it as possible, also someone put it in backwards
TL
17:01
Trader Lenny, the forgetful scholar. Leader of the biscuit Brigade in service of the Church of Dadbod
While it doesn't have to work, the narrower the target range for parameters is, the less useful this becomes
17:02
It's not going to be useful if battery swap requires some very precise alignment or a lot of moving parts - might not be bad at all if the charging station can softly guide and steer vehicle into the right position though
TL
17:02
Trader Lenny, the forgetful scholar. Leader of the biscuit Brigade in service of the Church of Dadbod
If someone cant park on a dime just move the dime.
A car wash has tolerances wide enough where you can drive into it slightly sideways and still get car washed - gotta have that with any battery hotswapping
TL
17:03
Trader Lenny, the forgetful scholar. Leader of the biscuit Brigade in service of the Church of Dadbod
Or just allow the car to make it's own adjustments.

Like how kiva and other material handler robots know where and how to dock to transfer product.
A
17:05
Aezzy
The industrial robots work in effectively ideal conditions and aren't exposed to severe weather and changing environments to the same extent as the cars
17:05
As said before, there's no single place where battery hotswapping idea is bad, it's a good idea, but so far practical problems prevented it from being implemented

17:09
Aezzy
So if you're serious about this, you should get a CAD system and get at least a rough sketch of the mechanics you have in mind :P
17:09
Gotta get a good idea of how the thing moves and such. "If you can't park on the dime, move the dime" is good, but every extra degree of freedom in a mechanical system multiplies your problems
17:10
A battery swapping device that has full freedom to move around and find its space is inherently less reliable (by orders of magnitude sometimes!) than a simpler device

It's not that easy. War creates a pretty clear direction/ideology to follow (post-war ideology is rooted in rebuilding, creating new factories, etc, all the good stuff that results in real economic activity that brings real value to the money), the times that come to mind where a strong ideology has appeared still involved a war

There are a lot of very smart people, but what pushes you into a spotlight like that is very little more than just luck

I'm slightly above or below average at best in the smart department.
It's almost trivial to design a chia pet like product for a specialist, the only contributing factor there was luck (and as a direct consequence, presence of funds to market it and start a fad)

On average the CEO of a company is paid about 238 times more then a floor worker at the same company.
22:31
Less taxes means that CEO gets less taxcuts and has to pay workers less or shed workers to keep his salary.
22:31
Because he has to pay shareholders from the profit that company makes.
22:32
Many CEOs bulk of value is in the value of the company stock.
22:32
So the more profit a company makes the more shares are worth. So more people invest in that company for higher dividends
22:33
If we lower taxes and remove loopholes companies can hire less bean counters and make more profit but at the cost of workers.
