Is anyone else amazed that we are sending data to a satellite orbiting in space and getting a response that is 50-100 times faster (down) than the T1 links (1.544 mbps) our schools paid crazy amounts for when I was in high school almost 20 years ago? I mean that's pretty cool when you look at what Space X has done.
- edgyquant 6y agoWe certainly should be but I think we’re so used to the crazy advances over the last 30 years these things become mundane. I mean is it really not just as amazing that we have neural nets running on machines in our pockets when these were considered computationally too expensive for doing basic handwriting processing on super computers a couple decades ago?
