This sounds like some kind of fantasy; how many people without stable living conditions or without a bank account that can be processed by the US are concerned with...cluster computing?
"What about all the homeless Iranian Ferrari owners!" doesn't seem like much of a rallying cry.
- mjgs 6y agoSurely if there is even 1 unbanked person in existence that is interested in cluster computing, then this is a worthwhile endeavour.
- analognoise 6y agoNo, absolutely not. Or maybe to Don Quixote, but he was famously delusional.
- mjgs 6y agoIs there any number of unbanked people showing interest in cluster computing that would change your opinion?
- analognoise 6y agoI "show an interest" in space, but I'm not entitled/deluded enough to expect someone to deliver a shuttle to me, because that would be a waste of time/materials/energy/money. It's the same here.
- mjgs 6y agoIf you had spoken to people in the 1960s and told them how many transistors we would have on a chip in 2020, they probably would have called you delusional. Also you are comparing a space shuttle to a few raspberry pis, hardly apples with apples.
