It's not the size of the code. It's the tiny little parts of that code that are most used and least efficient. You might see significant performance improvements with a little custom inline assembly code which don't effectively change the size at all.

However...

"At worst this app should be written in C++/Qt or WX, and should take up about 50MB. " If you wrote this in assembly language, it would probably be under 1 MB. If you care about memory. But 1MB of assembly code is a beast.

Welcome to fantasy land! No, wait, you should be welcoming us.

The site would be far better if every post was anonymized.

Explain why post quality goes up every time AC comments are disallowed.

And now you'll whine that I can't make those claims since my account is only a year old despite me reading this site since the 2000s, which only proves my point further.

No, I will not. IDGAF when someone got here, only about the quality of their ideas. I will complain that you're being an ass clown and making shit up, though, because your ideas are crap.

Nonsense. There are a specific set of *mature* Li-ion chemistries - namely, iron phosphate and NCA/NMC. There are no mature Na-ion chemistries. We do not know what kinds, if any, of Na-ion chemistries will mature to be competitive. Current low-volume production is not competitive. There is no non-subsidized Na-ion production that is at all price competitive with li-ion. Manufacturers readily admit this in interviews and quarterly reports. The hope is that with scale and chemistry advancements they will be. The collapse in lithium prices has sapped a lot of the optimism from the market about this.

I'll accept the coined word "talenteds". But you are not more "creative" just because you have a talent.

And for the record, most professional musicians today buy riffs or entire backing tracks from others and also outsource the mixing and mastering to third parties, so they can honestly lay off people for outsourcing part of their work to AI.
