Yeah, let's build data centers where it's hot, humid, and affected by severe weather...
ಠ_ಠ
Oh but don’t worry, incentivizing private companies to build means they’ll innovate ways to overcome all that. You’ll see!
Am I interpreting this wrong or is this news not a good thing? Like saying the state isn't going to subsidize these costs?
It’s sarcasm, mocking people in the administration and those funding the data centers who have made these claims.
(Because we all know it’s 1000% bullshit; they’ll find ways to make local governments subsidize them when they come across issues.)
It’s like the market correcting itself.
