Gasoline. Had to siphon, did it wrong, mouthful of gas.

And some things more recent...

It would be unfortunate if this information was fed into clustrmaps.

The Pepsi fire really did a lot of damage.

Actually...

No. The mass doesn't change. And a uniform sphere at distance is identical to a point as far as gravity is concerned.

According to those articles, the water-cooled systems don't uses pfas.

Not in my building. We use closed-loop, RO, continuously filtered, deionized water. Like all of the others my company runs.

Whats your source?

You assume that the market is rational. I think we left that road some decades ago.

Damn I'm old - that this explanation is needed.

• Normal people generally can't really afford masterpieces.

The Medicis financed the "great art" of their time. The equivalent of today's 1% folks.

All DC power becomes waste heat in the end.

Somewhat less than 15MW.

This is promising career news for data center techs like me.

My industry is ruled by trade secrets during this phase. That's part of the explanation for the complete lack of pushback on the "bad press" we get. Thanks for understanding.

Fully neurodivergent friendly.

Mental & Emotional well being programs.

Aggressive promotion schedules.

And more I forget.

The industry is moving very fast, so we cannot afford any employee-owned committee dithering. To make up for that, there are generous stock grants.

The execs take risks and own up to their mistakes. Everyone is aware that what we are working on won't be invented until tomorrow. So mistakes are all learning opportunities for the entire organization.

However, cultural mismatches to not stay with us long. If you bring nothing but a cya attitude, you don't go far.

Employee surveys are always fully honest and issues raised are always addressed.

I've worked at a lot of companies from startups to Fortune 10. This place is unique.

Yes it is. And we would happily adhere to a sustainable and community friendly raft of legislation to level the field and restore respect to the industry.

I cannot say what OAI does as I have not witnessed it. I do know what happens on my sites. I have seen it myself instead of relying on the press. I don't deny that others likely have bad practices. I simply know from personal experience that the "good guys" are being painted with a broad brush.
