I’m catching up on the news today and see that Nvidia forecasts $1T in GPU sales over the next 18 months. That is crazy. I don’t know how that works at any level.

Also on the nvidia news front, they are making a version of the gpu for orbital datacenters. Now I’ve been around for a long, long time and I’ve heard some pretty dumb ideas in that time, and I feel like orbital datacenters is at least in the top 10.

@jerry The one good thing I can say about orbital datacenters is:

The idea is so incredibly foolish that, no matter how hard they try, they won't get it to work.

Imagine trying to cool a GPU in a vacuum thermos.

@lmorchard @aaron @jerry yes, space cold. But space also hot. Depends on sunlight/shadow.
