I know this is hackernews and we like to get hyped up for new technologies, but, like, this just straight up isn't happening.

There is no benefit to putting data centers in space versus the giant cost that you would incur by doing so.

Can people please try and use their fucking brains for a second?

    Have you considered that people smarter than you think it is plausible?

      I know many people smarter than me, plenty of them who have spent careers building data centers, and not one of them think this is plausible.

      You should consider whether people smarter than the average investor are pulling a fast one.
