Comment that's not what union are (Score 1) 122

"A labor union wants to be, and often is, the exclusive provider (that is, seller) of labor to a company or industry. "

Labor Union do not provide exclusively labor to companies. What they do is have the power of collective bargaining, job protection, safety - which is utterly different to being "exclusive provider of job".
You may confusing normal labor union, with hiring hall union (e.g. in construction/actors/voice actor). That is a widely different type of union. Most union are NOT hiring hall union.

Feel free to correct me.

"The UK may not regulate US entities without the consent of the US government"

The UK can wholly regulate US entity doing commerce in the UK on what they can or cannot do while selling to UK citizen, and their modality of information being saved UK data information for later access in UK.

And the US government can do diddly squat on that except trying political pressure (thus the article), and the company can go out of the UK market if they don't like the modality of it. Which in this case they did not, they agreed to remove some encryption instead, while probably going to thug the dick of the politician they donate to, and whine ask them to do something.

It isn't about what China would find on the moon, but rather that the whole process would mean they are doing fundamental research and this would lead to advancement for them. Since the US is mostly doing "rent seeking" and much less advancement like that, this would lead to the US falling back in the tech compared to China. At least that's the theory, and why some on the US side are frightened by a tech China on the moon.

Comment The issue is that it does not do hot air (Score 1) 120

Problem1 : You would need conduction (from each cpu/gpu in the server toward a radiator using cooling liquid for example) from the rack to a radiator.
Otherwise if you don't those 100kW would be dumped into very small surface of the GPU/CPU and small radiator they usually have.
At 300K blackbody radiance is ~450 W.m^-2 So you r calculation of the surface of the cylinder is OK, you would only need 222 m^2 to dissipate a blackbody at 300K of 100kW of heat. The problem is that the heat is not dumped into the cylinder directly, but would need to be conducted from the cpu/gpu radiator to the cylinder . And that's where the problem starts, as you would need almost certainly a liquid for the transport, and that brings a lot of issue itself (weight, pump failure, freezing/boiling etc...). And that's not even counting servicing & obsolescence.

IMO the feasability of this is near null zero enough to be disregarded as a tech bro stupid solution in wait of a problem.

much MUCH easier solution is to have the server on earth, in zone where you have a lot of renewable like solar, wind. easier to maintain , cool, and give energy.
