"All the large institutions are doing it" has never resulted in disaster (see the dot com bubble and the great financial crisis).

It seems preposterous that building a data center and

launching it into space would be more practical than building a data center terrestrially. Every problem gets 10 to 100 times harder (Cooling, energy, how are you going to do maintenance on the thing, it's in space?)

The only thing that's easier is you don't have to do any local community engagement.

If a grid connection is the constraint on your project, building an islanded data center with a buttload of solar and batteries seems a lot more feasible than launching it into space. Then you have the option to build a grid connection later and monitize those resourcess.

Yeah, any 8/16-bit pixel are t wasn't made to be viewed on a screen with that high a resolution. CRTs smoosh/blur the image a bit so you don't see all the hardlines.

Why are we comparing a programing language and a GPU. This is a category error. Programing languages do not do any operations. They perform no FLOPs, they are the thing the FLOPs are performing.

"The I7-4770K and preform 20k more Flops than C++" is an equally sensible statement (i.e. not)

You're being obtuse. Every point in the original comment is correct, you just disagree they're issues. The original comment also doesn't state they are issues just that they are differences.

• link local addresses

.Auto configuration addresses are in V4 but they are used entirely differently. Interfaces do not have link local addresses if they have a DHCP or statically configured address, in V6 it is extremely common to use a link local address as the gateway, in V4 this basically never happens.

If your local governments are funded by property taxes, Data centers can bring in new revenue while requiring few services. Which could be used to shore up stressed public budgets or fund other economic development activities to bring in jobs.

These projects can be developed and located responsibly, and every project is different. I don't think a blanket ban is good policy.

At least UV is still open source, it would suck to have to fork and foe there to be yet another python package management tool(what is this JS?), but we can do it.
