One animal is a koala. The other is a kangaroo. Both uniquely Australian. (The frog could be from anywhere)

As an 'alum' of this intake process I feel pretty qualified to opine on it.

What's your opinion founded on?

From the opposing position, my last three companies have placed me in the position of automating necessary tasks just to keep up with the task list, with absolutely zero support from the applicable Dev team. What's worse, I've had tickets in for ~19 months requesting minimum necessary business and functional requirements, and I get passed around like a bloody hot potato.

My choice becomes, fail in my role, or try to spin up some automation myself. The second choice is the less-worse outcome.

That your company has an in-house software dev team is impressive. Does the revenue-generating business have access to that team?

What? No. That's a gross oversimplification. You're welcome to learn more :

'some'

Can't tell if you are being wilfully obtuse. Look at the math: https://www.cnet.com/home/energy-and-utilities/calculate-how-many-solar-panels-you-need-to-charge-your-ev/

A small ioniq 6 requires 6 solar panels dedicated to the car. And that assumes charging through the day. Want to charge at night? Now you need a decent battery.

F-150? Now you need 12 panels. And a bigger battery. Plus your home energy needs, throw on a few more panels for that.

I'm frustrated by generic appeal to solar without consideration for the realities of same.

Though I completely agree with your bike comment.
