It is not. To review code you need to have an understanding of the problem that can only be built by writing code. Not necessarily the final product, but at least prototypes and experiments that then inform the final product.

You don't need orbital velocity to blow satellites away. Just do a well-timed suborbital launch against the satellite's orbit, and the satellite will provide most of the kinetic energy.

For AI training, latency is one of the limiting factors, which needs to be kept in the nanoseconds. And a light-nanosecond is famously almost exactly 1 foot. That's why Lumen/Starcloud's designs all assume it'll be a spa

There's a synergy effect here - Tesla sells you a solar roof and car bundle, the roof comes without a battery (making it cheaper) and the car now gets a free recharge whenever you're home (making it cheaper in the long term). Of c

Because the latencies required for modern AI training are extremely restrictive. A light-nanosecond is famously a foot, and the critical distances have to be kept in that range. And a single cluster today would already require more solar &a

High-powered computers are a niche issue, which means on a society level there's little benefit to restricting them. Lightbulbs on the other hand affect all of society, so they've got a much larger impact to the overall CO2 budget

There's a massive difference between the 2600K of regular incandescent bulbs, and the 6000K of sunlight. That's why hollywood used HMIs until they migrated to LED.

Tbh, Google and Facebook, after several enforcement actions, now provide a simple "Reject All" button, while most smaller websites don't. I'd argue that's the opposite of regulatory capture.

At least in broadcast/cinema, no one uses CNN for debayering, because why would you? In cinema, you just use a 6K sensor and use conventional debayering for a perfect 4K image. Even the $2000 Sony FX-30 ships with that feature nowadays
