@isaiah_p_taylor @NateForUtah @valaratomics 100% on fault tolerance , pretty sure that’s a default. Today if grids fail older DC’s have diesel.

@NaveenGRao Hard agree.

@noahrshinn @Zocdoc Zocdoc is garbage and most doctors don’t use any of its features.

Feels like short sellers running a hit job on Huang.

@EvridgePope @MatthewChang Robotic excavation is coming too.

Useful life of space DC is limited lifespan due to radiation exposure related failure

@MatthewChang Problem solving is fun! 🤩

It’s time to rethink how cities are planned and build data centers near airports and highways / roads to utilize waste heat to warm roads. Say yes to your data centers and push them to build sub T.

Roads are a huge expense for cities. If we can reduce the need to rebuild them after a few years of salt and cold weather - we would do away with that cost many many other benefits …

[Matthew Chang @MatthewChang]

This is big brain thinking. There’s not a lot of reason to have humanless buildings above ground if you have alternatives.

Data centers are good.

Suggestion : excavate to move data center builds underground, also easier to get noise close to ~0db.

When done in 4 season climate or anywhere that gets snow, build underground so parks and other more useful enterprise can be above ground

Use the heat generated to heat pipes below roadways, and runways, and sidewalks to melt snowfall off from that heat. Upgrade roadways and sidewalks to accommodate data center heat waste.

This could Nearly eliminate all snow opex / capex forever + reclaim a snow melt for municipal water supplies, and no more salt corroding cars.

@coltonsbuilding I endorse this message !

[Faraz 🇺🇸 🚀 @_Faraz]

another way to use 750m gallons of hot water -> heat roads and runways in the winter with DC waste heat

[Innovation Council @innovationcncl]

🚨 750 gallons of water flowing every MINUTE, and it's being reused.

CNBC goes inside the next generation of data center cooling technology, where water circulates in a closed loop instead of constantly drawing fresh water from local supplies.

Put the cloud underground !

[Colton @coltonsbuilding]

here's what Fable 5.2 thinks of this idea

[Faraz 🇺🇸 🚀 @_Faraz]

@IterIntellectus Germany has the supply chain for this ?

[Faraz 🇺🇸 🚀 @_Faraz]

I’ve dreamt of this for so long. Car guys would have winters back if there was no salt on roads and the roads were warmed.

[Connor Beem @connor_beem]

Waste heat is such an untapped resource

[Faraz 🇺🇸 🚀 @_Faraz]

Request for DC builders - Build Sub T data centers. Green Parks above, use waste heat to keep roads, runways, sidewalks warm in the winters spread the word!

If your state gets snow - this is for you.

[Colton @coltonsbuilding]

this seems like a good idea

[Faraz 🇺🇸 🚀 @_Faraz]

@GerryBurde 💯

[Faraz 🇺🇸 🚀 @_Faraz]

This will solve roadway problems, potholes, salt damage, black ice, etc etc. we should be considering how infrastructure needs to adapt and optimize in new and creative ways.
