Can any part of the circuitry be driven sufficiently to set up an
elecron loop (using the remaining solar energy collection) so as to
slowly rotate the craft (via Newtons third law) into a better orientation
for solar collection and/or observation?
That might buy time for a better idea...
I have degrees in both camps, Science (Physics, Computing) and Humanities (Public Policy).
I have seen and been involved in the thought processes and the implicit value hierarchies that underlie both types of thinking.
The utterances of Ms Baker need to be exposed and refuted immediately. They are dangerous and sociopathic.
The attack on science by the current marxist inspired SJWs threatens us with a return to the dark ages.
Read some history.
Read "A Canticle for Liebowitz"
For the love of science and our civilization, resist this.
Sounds like the phenomenon of "Top 1% owns 99%" is impacting music as well as wealth, but it that purely an American phenomenon? The concentration does not seem to be as bad in UK or Europe, or here in Australia.
As an old fart (punched card Fortran guy) it seems to me that most pop music has become very homogeneous there; the same four chords and riffs over and over with autotuned well-known-female-voice over the top.
Listening to random classics on Youtube (today: The Monkeys, The Stranglers) the difference in texture and nuance from then to now is very evident.
It will be interesting to see how AI generated music goes:
a. Will it be indistinguishable from human output, or is there some 'human' quality that WE will always be able to detect?
b. What music will an artificial consciousness prefer? Jazz? Human au Naturale? - we may be surprised!

There is some 'real music' still coming out of USA, but mostly in genres ignored by the Mu$ic Indu$try, My favourite is Jackie Evancho who seems to have been blackballed by the industry since singing at Trumps Inauguration, but her vocals are very impressive (and very human) to my ears.

I believe this is the result of the goals used to develop this AI.
The evolution of an early neural network is value free - what works wins.
The goals set by a commercial organisation will orient the growth towards profit, using the power of clickbait.
The videos that are most engaging/radical to YOU will be recommended to YOU.
What incentive is there to grow the brain for social good (whatever that means)?
Should society impose such guidance? This is a big problem and key to the long term impact of AI.
It is the same problem that we have grappled with for millennia, and may bring with it the same painful lessons of war and politics.
We play god.
I understand the sentiment, but are you sure about that?
Should my final report card, at the end of my life, be a record of my accumulated assets,
or an archive of my virtues, achievements and reputation?
Which of these will touch my descendants?
Be careful what you wish for..

Two CPU's walk into a bar. Cpu1: Have you had any good forks lately? Cpu2: No, but I'm in a relationship with a process.
Ah, vicky.dat!
