Maybe if you build the datacenter inside an asteroid, and use the whole surface as an infrared radiator.
The thermal budget is impossible to escape. Maybe in an asteroid it could be possible, the whole surface becomes a thermal radiator and the whole asteroid a thermal mass. But still no convection.
What's your counter argument for the thermal budget problem ?
Dissipating heat into outer space is extremely difficult, you can't escape thermodynamics.
Maybe some governments are sponsoring these activities near the border of a political rival. Like they did during the golden triangle era...
Grok could say anything. Isn't there a rule yet on just blatantly copy/pasting AI answers ?
Sorry to be that guy. But Emacs ? Free forever and great at keyboard shortcuts.
Probably still needs a good text editor though.

Just curious if anyone has heard of Otto Hahn? Unsung genius of quantum research born on the losing side of multiple wars.

What company and/or government agency do you think is running the biggest AI system? And for what purpose?I don't have any definitions or estimates but I thought this could be a very interesting discussion.Interesting articles and sources are more than welcome
Awesome man! You solved quite a few problems I had working on mine. (Not sure I understand everything though)
I checked your code, fixed a few things.
It now works for: 7c01 0030 7de1 1000 0020 7803 1000

As a French speaker it make total sense to me; it just describes it.
I just searched quickly how to explain that the semi-colon is somehow half a colon. I couldn't find anything.
Isn't there a huge memory leak?
Creating a new pointer on each iteration without keeping track of them.
I might be wrong I've been doing games in CL for some time now.
Maybe the numbering of TeX will now go up to 6 and something...
Back when it was first announced, everybody made jokes about the new TeX policy and every document made using TeX will have to be reviewed before publishing :)
I got a 503, anyone else does?
There still is a significant chance this is not what he meant.
e^ix = cos x + i sin x
It really has nothing to do with the value of i, it's just a convention. It really just says that cos pi = -1 which is nice but that's it.
A virtual machine working only on html 5 ?
In the way they present the entrepreneurs and their company, funding is put up front as it was a measure of success. And I think many people would agree that it is a terrible way to measure the success of a company.
