    A brushless motor only converts ~5% of its input to heat. That’s low enough that you can reasonably call it a side effect.

    Now, a computer, that’s a heater that happens to produce math as a side effect. 100% of its input ends up as heat.

      It might output the results of a computation once in a while though

      if you dont count powering i/o devices (other heaters) (or electromagnetic wave emmiters so heaters with extra steps)

      Main effect of a brushless motor is moving matter really fast, which, on a molecular level, is same as heating it.
