There's more than that, it's possible to get permanent hardware damage from radiation at smaller (modern standard) process sizes.

I didn't think about that, so yeah, basically space based compute centers are just hype on top of hype.

Why make a GW datacenter on the ground if you can make two and pay to launch them into space?
Random errors will occur you just need to be checking fast enough to fix and update that bad bit flip.
I am sure there's all sorts of fun algorithms in this space but I am under the impression there is SOME tax to doing this. What is the tax? Is it 10% ir 60% I have no idea would love to know!
