@nicole I saw yesterday where some oligarch was saying they needed data centers in spaaaaace, because of solar power. And my immediate thought was, “that doesn’t make sense at all.”
@nicole I’m not even sure it’s that. I thinks it’s just hype cycle grift. Sure, maybe some of these dudes are true believers, but greed is cynicism and greedy desperation run the show
Basic models of flocking behavior are controlled by three simple rules: 1) separation: avoid crowding neighbours (short range repulsion); 2) alignment: steer towards average heading of neighbors; 3) cohesion: steer towards average position of neighbors (long range attraction). With these three simple rules, the flock moves in an extremely realistic way.
