37% of new heavy trucks sold in China: now fully electric. Not delivery vans — 49-tonne heavy-duty rigs. This one swapped ~550 kWh in just 5 mins. Competitive, proven & inevitable. China's heavy EV truck sales surged 182% YoY in 2025, rising from single digits just two years ago.

Writing an ai driven tool to create me to do items based on unstructured data. Was wondering why my data classification was trash, switched to DeepSeek and wow… instantly fixed. I see why the markets freaked out when it was released.
Shutting down a side project, and notified users last night. Just got a really kind email saying thank you for running it 🥹
