Why doesn't india have more open source projects? I found [Libre taxi][https://libretaxi.org/] which is basically free open source ride sharing similar to uber\ola but saves the cut of company. This could potentially enable the lower class for higher profit margins. For a country that's a big player in software, we sure don't have many open source projects :(. Source: about 1 year ago

There is this app that works using telegram API. It's called libre taxi. https://libretaxi.org/ One advantage with this project is that it is self hosted and federated. Source: over 2 years ago

A project like libretaxi allows drivers to set their own prices and "haggle" with customers. I think it's a turn off for a customer to not know the price beforehand, and nobody appears to use that service. We would have a way that we democratically decide on a price to set and a percentage that the driver gets, giving drivers the ability to make decisions about how the company is run and ways it can benefit the...

The above poster said it would take hours each charge of a few hundred km. You're acknowledging it only takes 31 minutes for a few hundred km charge but you're saying that's worse? Here's a similar route in an ID.3. https://abetterrouteplanner.com/?plan_uuid=13a0bcb2-9052-405f-ac27-9b8d38bd01fe Average charging wait time on this trip is a bit under 22min. For almost 12 hours of driving it... - Source: Hacker News / 24 days ago

It's actually a 915km trip ending up in the French Alps during winter time, so it's more taxing on the battery, and I need some juice left on arrival (30%) You can test it out yourself on ABRP [0]. My trip goes from Lier, Belgium to Les Saisies, France. With "quickest arrival" setting, ABRP does 4 stops with a total charging time of 1h25min (and 8h29 driving). The stops are 28, 18, 18 and 22 minutes respectively.... - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

> With ICE I don't have to worry about any of that. You don't do that with EVs that nav takes all of that into account. The only valid issue are the poorly maintained Electrify America chargers on non Tesla EV's. But that about to change in the U.S. Since pretty much everyone is adopting NACS/SAE J340 Standard. Which will make them compatible with Tesla Superchargers. Apps like ABRP also exist that is compatible... - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

There is a general drought of Tesla SCs in Queensland / NE Australia, so ABRP can't find a suitable route only using the SC network. Otherwise a scenario for the Lucid Air Dream Edition has it charging 6 times for a total of 4h12m (in "great" conditions, though): https://abetterrouteplanner.com/?plan_uuid=c34a381b-83fc-4bd5-a6d9-2dd86fffc60c. - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago
