@lauriewired@SebAaltonen I've seen code that uses exceptions as part of the control flow (ie like an obfuscated switch -> goto block). Worked for them I guess but they should be forced to look at the relocation table the linker needs to generate and reconsider their ways.
@victorzh UX for crypto payments seems to be a hot topic at the moment. Day to day crypto payments are happening in LatAm, 3 years ago was still manual entry + wait on etherscan which doesn't scale. This seems to solve those issues other than obtaining crypto. Can demand trigger supply?
@semicondurian π― Yeah it has to be. Ideally we'd bake that in up front, but it's difficult to see how you'd make that work in a competitive market. Maybe some game theory solutions that reward cooperation could work?
@semicondurian We should be saving the orbit space for things that need it like gravity wave observatory networks, microgravity fabrication. You trust corps to keep running the very costly collision avoidance systems once there's no return on their system, and not socialize that?
@semicondurian Once it's up there, it's up there. You can refit an earth based data centre and sell the (still valuable) cpus; if we get even 10% of what analog computing is promising that's still a 100 fold upgrade, making SBDC obsolete. Bulk of solar DC cost is initial setup, then it's "free"
@semicondurian The main issue I have is Kessler. The second is obsolescence. There's two new converging technologies - 1.8nm lithography and analog transistor computing both will change the power requirements of earth bound data centres, too late for SBDC.
@semicondurian I like to run my interpretations of historical events through the AI too. It can be quite subtly brutal (that's the best way I can describe it) with takedowns sometimes, but usually leads to understanding things better within the overall context.
@Parkersasquatch @J_TheFilthyCas @cb_doge I also thought this wouldn't work, but it turns out some clever guy already came up with the equation and with only 10mΒ² surface area - on the 'night' side of the satellite you can get 4.6kW radiation; just enough to safely cool 2 B200's.
@Carolin86453126@TRobinsonNewEra It's amazing how punctuation works to fix the problems in English context. This kind of grammar 'pun' doesn't happen in more consistent languages like Latin or Chinese.
@tobasiteuberman@thestanduppod I like node too :) for putting together a strong working general purpose server it's difficult to get close to the convenience and stability of TypeScript/node with anything else. Esp if you want it to run cross platform.
