I’m not convinced. That sort of thing usually depends on some very specific arcana or weird interaction between systems that is not in the code. It usually requires either external knowledge or deep investigation and compilation of evidence

DGX is only 10,2 kW. But also only 8 H200s. Kyber seems a bit more power efficient (per-GPU) but requires much more power for a single unit. With that power requirement it doesn’t seem like it will fly.

It should be smaller than ISS. IIRC, ISS has three solar arrays and two radiators. DGX is about the size of a fridge. Let’s add two more fridges worth of infra for solar and radiator. Maybe another fridge for comms. But these three fridges

Whatever it is it’s not driven by sense or even feasibility of data centers in space. To me it looks like the next Musk’s grift. Remember Mars? Have you heard about it recently? He threw it to the Internet and everyone got excited for a min

DGX H200 is 10,2 kW. So that like 10 of them. Or only 80 H200. Doesn’t sound like a big data center. More like a server room. ISS radiators are huge 13.6x3.1 m. Each radiates 35 kW. So you need 3 of them to have your 100 kW target. They are

While it’s true that there are no floods or earthquakes in space it’s not exactly a safe place to be. Radiation and cosmic rays become a much greater threat. Shielding provided by the atmosphere would have to be replaced. You also underesti

Toxoplasma Gondii. Damn clickbait… it took title, 5 paragraphs, and an ad break before they even mentioned what the parasite is.

Good for you it’s obvious for you. But there are way too many people believing they can fight a bear/moose and win.

That depends. If OP’s job is marketing then doing it before is doing the thing even if it pisses off the people who’ll have to do the thing OP made up.

You might be delighted to learn that upcoming `corner-shape` is fixing that. Also you still can use your sliced images with `border-image`.

I get the sentiment and it’s a fair shot at license cosplay but it ain’t gonna hold. No definitions. What is AI for the purpose of this license? What is a natural person? At some point the text makes distinction between AI, ML, and autonomo

It pulls data from Amazon and so is limited to availability there. For instance, the most expensive MacBook in there is $5839 while on the Apple Store you can max out at $7349 (hardware only). I suspact same goes for other manufacturers. So

Looking at the examples I mourn. I wonder if the author ever saw a real book. No table of contents, no chapters, no page numbers, not even proper margins. There’s so much one can do to lay out code for paper nicely and none of it is here.
