Timeline hopper here, just through the gate from funny laugh lady land. Believe it or not in that line Musk is still the richest man ever over there - richer even - but he's a woke social librul because he knows which side of his bread has butter on it.
Notably, President Harris also prefers rockets that will launch to rockets that will not for some reason.
But don't eat the fish. Just in case.

What an interesting way to describe that. A disciplined way, you might say.
Watching was a thrill ride from beginning to end. Still issues with Booster landing but they will sort it out. The re-entry tiles did great. The satellites did great. Ship did so well they will try for a catch next time, if there's nothing counter in the flight data.
Hardware rich development proves itself again. The next one is built and being fitted out for a launch just a couple months away. Behind it, the factory has begun several more.
It's hard to believe they started building this on a beach in tents, with a flying water tower.
The radiation pressure that prevents the inflow of mass to a black hole has no effect on another black hole.
“Good artists copy, great artists steal” - Pablo Picasso
I believe the classic line between copying and synthesis is taking from three artists or more.
The author is allowed to not give a flying fig about that. Or anything else.
Is that with all the data they collect, anyone in there could ever imagine any other outcome for the public reception of this feature.
AFAIK Microsoft did collect (and probably still does so) collect bucketloads of money on these patents from Android vendors. It is just not "public" because of course that would be not in their interest and would hurt their recent image of "open source friendly company".
It makes no sense to spend more to tiptoe through costly incremental steps of infrastructure buildout buying stuff you crave to be rid of when you can hop right to the conclusion. Fuel is bad. You use it and then you need more fuel. That's a vulnerability to the fuel supplier, the logistics, the free market for fuel, changing government meddling. Fix it right once without fuel and be done with it for 30 years. It's not like there won't be another problem to solve the next day.
>as they are not allowed to use oil or coal
Or natural gas. No carbon. Carbon fuels amplify the already obscene thermal output by at least 2.5.
Also, none of them is dumb enough to go fission. The time to power is an order of magnitude greater than their expiration date if they don't have it. And their server and power costs are bad enough. They don't need to compound those expenses with the costliest source of energy available.
Never sounded so good.
The transistors aren't actually smaller. They fit more of them in the same 2 dimensional area by using layers. The layers are the Z dimension. The thermals are an interesting question.
The transistors aren't actually smaller. It's standard in the field to market the next chip generation as a smaller size when they mean equivalent to the new size. In this case the transistors are stacked vertically so looking down you get layers X areal density of the 2 dimensional surface. We don't do this with flash stacks, which now have up to 321 layers and are mapped to 1000+.
The angstrom scale business is marketing fluff to make the density increase understandable to consumers. But this is one of the developments leveraging the Z dimension that are legitimate progress. The Z dimension gives more than just the same chip folded like origami. The net distance traveled by a signal in a cycle can be reduced, which yields massive improvement in performance without additional cost of power/heat.
The bogosity meter just pegged.
