They could build them so that they stay in perpetual dawn or dusk. One edge with the solar panels in the su, the other edge with the cooling fins in the night’s cool breeze.
Nobody thinks they’re incapable of working this out; we think theyre deliberately advertising something dumb that lay people won’t necessarily understand is dumb. Replying that they have smart engineers is stupid because no-one denied it - we just don’t think they used those engineers to come up with the idea.
and forget about running 4nm chips in space. shit has to be radiation hardened, which means bigger process nodes and higher energy cost, and lower speed
Getting rid of the heat is going to be an issue for that… along with the massive pollution from the many launches required to get this in orbit.
The heat will just dissipate in the air, and they can launch it at night when it’s colder. Science!
/s in case, there are a few mouth breathers out today

Oh! Oh! Attach it to a meteorite! Almost infinite heatsink in space!
Kessler syndrome goes brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
I’m pretty sure they’re aware of the need for radiators. They’ve probably designed satellites before.

yes but they’re not trying to dissipate megawatts usually
Again, I’m pretty sure they’re aware that you need bigger radiators when you’re using more energy. This is space engineering 101.
literal kilometers of panels and radiators. No. It won’t happen
If only they’d hired you, they would have known.
well any actual engineer who isn’t trying to sell them will readily tell you that a datacenter in space is a very bad idea.
They’d better not try to sell them to anyone who has access to an engineer, then. Just a single engineer will bring the whole scheme crashing down.
for starters, at the loads they’re running at, they have literally hundreds of gpu failures a day. How do you propose doing that in space?

Edit: don’t feed the troll.
But he’s so hungry. :(
