With a 2-d chip, you can't do much better than a big-old heat sink, and circulating a fluid. For 3-d structures, I wonder if actively moving heat to the outside with Peltier junctions would help.

I would not consider FTL to be a roguelike because (a) you can't go back to previous levels, you can only explore the current map, and (b) you're forced to progress to the next level on a timer.

Invariance under velocity changes boosts the whole apparatus. And speeds less than C are observable, and do change w.r.t. an unboosted observer. Rotational invariance would rotate both the source and the detector, and there would be no sur

While they can be thought of as stacked regression, it's only logistic regression with one particular non-linearity. And for many non-linearities you'll have a hard time usefully interpreting them as a regression.
