Fascinating to imagine each node being analogous to a transistor and carrying out a “basic compute”, to make up a big computer. A new abstraction layer calls out for us.

Imagine you fat finger 100k instead of 1000 by accident...

Wonder what business can afford to run a 24/7 100k cluster though. Maby Microsoft or amazon.

You'd need to contact support to raise your service quota.
