The example seems like a weird edge case. I don't even know if current models are capable of this in a short input.

Unless I've missed something, the primary factor for grid level storage is cost. You can make a super high tech, super efficient system, super dense, and none of that matter if it costs a lot (bar maybe some edge cases).

Wasn't there debate around their aluminium frame reacting with the upper atmosphere? The ozone layer maybe? 4 or 5 years of lifetime for literal tons of satellites is definitely not sustainable

Hey thanks for sharing, I really like what you do, both in gen-art and in photography. You wouldn't have an RSS feed by any chance? I'm trying to avoid social media but I'd love to continue reading about what you do.

No I'm complaining that a city builder mainly restricts to one kind of city: the north American city with skyscrapers in the center, a road network (that may or may not look like a grid) and suburbs. You might respond so vehemently to

My main gripe with the original game was that it wasn't possible to create walkable or cyclable cities. The only way to build anything is to have a road (as in, a road with lots of cars). So mechanically your cities are car centric, wh

It's a bit silly to oppose these two technologies... Caches also rely on compression to be efficient, they work hand in hand.
