it's a bot farming for a attention.

It's funny how everyone is a "bot" when they post something. Generally, when that is said, the person responding has nothing useful to counter the post so goes with some generic nonsense to make themselves sound like they know something.

I would say that any kind of substantial level of investment in a jurisdiction is a reasonable indicator of an expectation of a return on investment, and thus confidence in the economic growth of at least some industries in that jurisdiction. I'm not sure why people are trying to hand wave away that kind of an indicator, unless the fact of it creates some problem for some narrative they have bought into, creating a level of cognitive dissonance necessitating peculiar denials.

It's a trade off: you get abundant free energy to run the server, with extreme constraints on cooling because your server is running in the most perfect Thermos bottle ever.

Others are taking the opposite tack: undersea data centers for abundant free cooling at the expense of having to get the power down to your servers.

If had to bet on which one is more practial, I'd go with undersea servers. Build them off the coast of Chile, run cables out from batery-backed solar plants in the Atacama desert.

This story has the wonderful title, Fidji Simo says Mark Zuckerberg gave her one piece of health advice years ago, and she wishes she had listened.

In short, she was so excited to have hit her dream job at the age of 40, that work-life balance never entered the picture. Now she's a multi-milionaire who will, probably, spend the rest of her life struggling to have something approaching a normal life.

In Wyoming, a contractor working to build Meta's data center, discharged untreated water into the municipal water system which led to the introduction of Cupriavidus gilardii into the water system.

You know, there are these things called yard sales and flea markets where you can get forks, or entire sets, for less than what you pay on Amazon.

Instead of an itemized list of what you bought and how much each item cost, all you'll get is a final bill. Pay it or else.

Sound stupid? So is this.

BBC Science has an article where experts ranked 400 jobs by their dementia risk. Those least likely to die from Alzheimer's were taxi drivers and ambulance drivers. The reason behind this seems to be that constant spatial and navigation processing tasks might offer some protection from Alzheimer's.

The authors do have one caveat: While researchers found that taxi and ambulance drivers were less likely to die of Alzheimer's, they were also more likely to die young.

That's an issue because Alzheimer's is a disease that becomes more likely the older you get. If people in those professions aren't living long enough to get Alzheimer's, that could explain some of the results.

"The paper isn't an advert for becoming a taxi driver - unfortunately they're dying earlier" Spiers says. "Importantly, however, the researchers reran their analysis correcting for age and still found a significant effect."

It seems using your brain other than for existence might help stave off mental decline.

Ever notice how the people on the left calling for Sharia law, would be the first to be thrown off of buildings if it were ever implemented?

Hey dumbass, it's those Red states trying their best to implement Sharia law through forcing the Bible into the classroom (but no other religious texts), displaying the ten commandments in schools (which they ignore), telling women what they can wear, telling women they must have babies, and a whole host of other things they're trying to force down people's throats.

As always, every accusation is a confession with you people.

Still trying to extort money from IBM after all this time. Nothing like a business model made up entirely of rent seeking.

Have you listened to the way people talk? I wouldn't want to listen to it either.

They were all crooked and misaligned.

Oh, you must mean Pepe, my little mule.
