I take mine over the Williamsburg bridge (3-4% grade) to work every day. I can generally get two commutes on one battery charge, but the speed degrades with lower battery levels so I try to keep charged. If you're on lower battery over a hill, kick-pushing a bit helps a lot.

We've been using gRPC for a new web project and it has been a good experience so far. The codegen in JS is pretty verbose and can have touch ergonomics, but not the end of the world. We haven't ran into troubles with the type system, but we leverage OneOf's and Views a decent amount. The thing we don't have a great solution for right now is how to fetch referenced types efficiently (eg. stream of posts with users referenced by a foreign key), but we're not tackling that until performance of the resource fetches becomes a problem and evaluating whether to cache values client side or design a solution at the API layer.

Also FieldMasks and the View patterns can be very useful for the other issues that were raised https://cloud.google.com/apis/design/design_patterns#partial...
