This week, Simone Giertz dropped by to talk about everything from Truckla to feeling like she's retired from YouTube. She also talks about how she's been able to turn her love for inventing into a successful product business. Of course, we wrap it all up with the typing test and some trivia as well. It's a fun one!

第二十七課:Zenith /ˈzɛnɪθ/ the time at which something is most powerful or successful. 隨機的小插曲,讓我一瞬間陷入『老兵提當年勇』的回憶漩渦,好奇大家是否也偶爾會有『憶當年』的感慨,緬懷著人生中過往的頂點,已逝的巔峰。 本集單字Zenith, 有頂點或是巔峰的意思,在節目中跟大家一起從專門發明超廢無用機器人的發明女王跟阿甘正傳的經典場景,一起重新定義何謂人生頂點,又該如何不間斷地登峰造極。 _____本集摘要_____ 活這麼多年,值得一提的人生里程碑,竟然只剩陳年往事。 peaked too young,小時了了大未必佳,太早達到高峰,意味後面就是一路滾下山。 在菁英導向價值觀中,學習的價值只剩追求分數所給予的光環。 瑞典女發明家Simone Giertz發明刷牙頭盔,榮登最廢發明家的頭銜。在TED演講上,她驕傲的說:「想要成為第一名,非常簡單。」 ※Truckla廣告:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R35gWBtLCYg 與其努力嘗試發明一個完美的成功的東西,Simone Giertz決心要發明注定失敗的機器。 老闆對客戶的水準有一些先入為主的偏見。這樣的偏見意味著環境不同,條件不同,所謂的頂點的高度,自然也就不同了。 我有決定權,替自己設定一個符合我所追求的高標準的量尺。 _____本集內容為2019年製作_____ 《那些老外教我的事》由好家庭聯播網:台中古典音樂台FM97.7,台北Bravo FM91.3聯合製播。 2020年最新內容,每週六的下午5點,可以在古典音樂台官網在線直播收聽。(http:// www .family977.com.tw) 有話想說?可上《那些老外教我的事》 FB找煥恩聊天。(https://www.facebook.com/LessonsFromLaoWai/)

This week's episode sees Ant and Tom talk about the launch of Tesla's Cybertruck and whether Simone Giertz's homemade Truckla is actually better. Ant went to watch McFly which leads to a conversation about best venues and Tom went back to Las Vegas with work, which led to a lot of talk about films - most notably Fighting With My Family, and wrestling in general. Also covered is Sasha Baron Cohen criticising social media censorship by stating that if Facebook had been around in the 1930s it would have allowed Hitler to spread his beliefs unfiltered, the Conservatives setting up a fake fact check account and the Prince Andrew interview over the Epstein allegations.

When you start out a custom engineering project with the phrase “I don’t know if this is the smartest or most stupid thing I’m ever going to do”, the results are typically predictable. However, inventor, tinkerer, brain tumor survivor and YouTube celeb Simone Giertz, who is also known as the Queen of Sh@#!ty Robots, went on to produce possibly the most unique electric vehicle currently on the planet. Simone has made a name for herself by creating robotic contraptions that, I’d describe as a bit aggressive for applications such as chopping vegetables, applying lipstick or waking up in the morning. She’s also the founder and CEO of her own company - Artificial Stupidity. And while many of her inventions are essentially for a laugh, it appears her goal of promoting the benefit of failure has produced a remarkable success. Dubbed Truckla by Simone and her crew, the Model 3 turned pickup truck is not only functional, but will eventually serve as her everyday vehicle. She states that an electric pickup has been a dream since she got her driver’s license. And while Elon Musk has promised a first look at a Tesla pickup by the end of the summer, Simone just couldn’t wait. Initially scheduled to hit the road last fall, the return of a non-cancerous brain tumor set the timeline back a bit. However, after several weeks of radiation earlier this year, the Truckla project was ready to roll. Resisting the urge to simply eliminate everything behind the front seats to create a classic flatbed, the team went for more of an El Camino look. This meant the trunk, rear seats and rear roof were removed, and replaced by a custom rear frame, transplanted Ford truck bed, a rear window from a Chevy pickup, and a cut-to-size roof rack. The large electric battery also helped provide some structural stability. Although Truckla is currently driveable, Simone and her team will look to do some additional waterproofing, internal detail work and electrical upgrades. The team also made their own fake commercial, so to get a better look at the “truck the world didn’t know it was waiting for, which is available nowhere,” check out the link below.

Show #505 Good morning, good afternoon and good evening wherever you are in the world, welcome to EV News Daily for Wednesday 19th June 2019. It’s Martyn Lee here and I go through every EV story to save you time. Thank you to MYEV.com for helping make this show, they’ve built the first marketplace specifically for Electric Vehicles. It’s a totally free marketplace that simplifies the buying and selling process, and help you learn about EVs along the way too. Hello to another new PRODUCER CLINTON DESVEAUX! And new PRODUCER NEIL BUTLER Clean Air Day with TryEV! Tesla Day tomorrow! WORLD'S FIRST HOMEMADE TESLA TRUCK "In a total boss move, Simone Giertz—who for a long time has wanted to own "an electric pickup truck, more specifically, a Tesla pickup,"—created her very own custom Tesla pickup, which she affectionately named "Truckla." says Popular Mechanics: "The project took a year of planning and required a complete teardown of the car's interior, including door panels and gaskets. Once that was done, the team moved on to frame modifications and used reciprocating saws and grinders to remove the Tesla's roof beams. Truckla's bed, for example, was originally the bed of a Ford F-150, while the rear window came from a GMC Canyon. https://www.popularmechanics.com/cars/a28086506/homemade-tesla-truck-simone-giertz/ IRELAND TO BAN NEW PETROL AND DIESEL VEHICLES FROM 2030 "The Irish government plans to ban the sale of new petrol and diesel vehicles by 2030, as part of a major strategy to protect the environment." reports the BBC today: "The aim is to ensure that all new cars and vans on Irish roads in 11 years' time are electric vehicles. The proposed legislation was among 180 measures in the government's Climate Action Plan, published on Monday. The hope is that by the time the petrol and diesel vehicle ban is introduced in 2030 there will be 950,000 electric vehicles on Irish roads. The government is set to invest in a "nationwide" charging network to power the new vehicles. By 2025, at least one recharging point will be required at new non-residential buildings with more than 10 parking spaces." https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-48668791 BENTLEY TO ELECTRIFY ALL MODELS BY 2023; EV COMING IN 2025 "according to a new report from Car and Driver, the company has a timeline for its electric plans with the company's first fully electric vehicle debuting in 2025." says Motor1.com: "Along with its first electric vehicle, Bentley plans to hybridize every model in its lineup – the Continental GT, Flying Spur, and Mulsanne. The company will likely use the same turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 in the Bentayga that's also rumored to power the Continental GT hybrid. Customers fearful a hybrid would neuter the brand need not worry. In the Bentayga, the gasoline-electric powertrain makes 443 horsepower (330 kilowatts) and 516 pound-feet (700 Newton-meters) of torque, propelling the hefty SUV to 62 miles per hour (100 kilometers per hour) in 5.5 seconds up to a top speed of 158 mph (254 kph). Plus, the added torque boost from the 17.3-kilowatt-hour lithium-ion battery will feel stupendous." https://www.motor1.com/news/355621/bentley-electrify-models-2023-electric/ NIO BEGINS DELIVERIES OF NEW ES6 ELECTRIC CROSSOVER IN CHINA "Nio announced on Tuesday that the first ES6 electric crossovers have been delivered to their owners in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. It's the automaker's second mass-production model, following the larger ES8, but the company also has the EP9 electric hypercar in its portfolio, which is impressive in its own right." writes CNET: "With five seats onboard, the ES6 is smaller and shorter than the ES8, but its wheelbase is the same. Buyers have a choice of two powertrains: A pair of electric motors putting out 430 horsepower and 450 pound-feet of torque, or a beefier pair that puts out 536 hp and 535 lb-ft. Buyers can also choose between a 70-kilowatt-hour battery and an 84-kWh battery, the latter of which can reach up to 317 miles by NEDC estimates, which are usually higher than EPA estimates." https://www.cnet.com/roadshow/news/nio-es6-electric-crossover-deliveries-china/ 2020 PEUGEOT 2008 DEBUTS WITH BOLD SUV LOOKS AND AN EV OPTION "After a successful first generation, Peugeot's second-generation 2008 SUV breaks the code somewhat from the familiar formula, not the least of which is a fully electric e-2008 model we'll touch on later." according to Motor1: "The new electric Peugeot is visually the same as its internal-combustion-powered sibling, with the same interior space. In place of a fuel tank and engine, you'll find a single electric motor generating 136 horsepower (101 kilowatts) and 192 pound-feet (260 Newton-meters) of instant torque. It's driven by a rather modest 50 kWh battery, which Peugeot says is good for a range of approximately 193 miles (312 kilometers). Recharge times vary depending on the power source, but a 100kW terminal can recharge the e-2008 to 80 percent capacity in 30 minutes." TESLA TO CHANGE DEFAULT MODEL 3 COLOR TO WHITE "Elon Musk has announced that Tesla will be switching the Model 3’s standard color from Solid Black to Simple White. After these changes are implemented, Musk noted that the Model 3’s black paint option would command a $1,000 price, similar to Midnight Metallic Silver." says Simon at Teslarati: "Utilizing a Simple White color for the Model 3’s standard paint option could play to the electric car maker’s advantages. While not as stunning as the Pearl White Multi-Coat, Simple White paint would likely attract attract far fewer scratches than the current standard Solid Black. This would likely make the Model 3 far easier to maintain, ultimately benefiting both the vehicle’s owners and Tesla itself." https://www.teslarati.com/tesla-energy-reduces-residential-solar-costs-drops-us-rankings/ TESLA ARCADE IS HERE, LETTING YOU PLAY DRIVING SIMS WITH YOUR CAR'S STEERING WHEEL "Tesla has begin rolling out an update that will effectively turn its cars into a proper gaming platform. Tesla Arcade will make games powered by the Unreal and Unity engines playable on dashboards to keep you occupied when you're sitting around waiting for your car to charge" writes Tech Radar: "CEO Elon Musk teased Tesla Arcade at this year's E3 game show, revealing that Bethesda's Fallout Shelter would soon be available to play on dashboards, and for the official launch the company released a trailer demonstrating its first ported game, Beach Buggy 2." https://www.techradar.com/news/tesla-arcade-is-here-letting-you-play-driving-sims-with-your-cars-steering-wheel COMMUNITY And thanks to MYEV.com they’ve set us another Question Of The Week.
