This is all so stupid.

UPDATE: Republican U.S. Senate candidate Mike Rogers is endorsing a one-year moratorium on new data centers. https://t.co/GIYL1MX1La

On one hand, data centers use insignificant amount of water. On the other hand, they cure cancer. So who’s to say if they’re good or bad.

@TheRealBeliveau What was the CPI, rent index and tuition then? Since you want to talk economics

[Cam Harris @camharris_]

@TheRealBeliveau You have “think tanker” and govt affairs in your bio. Your a system leech telling people to man up

[Cam Harris @camharris_]

@TheRealBeliveau “Shit is expensive” isn’t economics. Stop being obtuse

[Cam Harris @camharris_]

@TheRealBeliveau No wonder he will no longer be in elected office with takes like these

The America First American Dream according to Marc: pay $50K a year for college, get no student loan relief, work two jobs after you graduate, eat Ramen.

[Marc Thiessen @marcthiessen]

A burrito only costs $20 when you buy it on Door Dash because you’re too lazy to walk over to Chipotle or Taco Bell (where you can get one for $3.99). When I graduated I lived on ramen noodles, had two roommates, and worked two jobs. I didn’t whine about affordability, I worked hard so I could one day afford a better life.

young voters: “life is expensive. We will vote for whoever can fix that”

GOP talking heads who don’t have real jobs: “shut up you lazy losers. you should care about the stuff we care about instead”

[Ben Shapiro @benshapiro]

I hear that young people are upset about $20 burritos. Okay, young people: a burrito does not cost $20. If you’re paying $20 for a burrito and you’re not independently wealthy, you’re doing life wrong. We have enough problems as a country without insane expectations that the government is going to provide us gourmet-quality burritos.

Check from Beijing cleared

[Sophie Cunningham @sophaller]

so how do we save our farm land and stop all these dumb data centers?

[Cam Harris @camharris_]

@Nathaniel_Pat Love the bankable vs lean flags. Would make those more prominent. Trust/confidence is becoming single biggest signal from AI output for parsing + decision making.

[Patrick Hedger @pat_hedger]

This is a land use chart from Bloomberg in 2018. Estimates are data centers will use 900,000 acres by 2028.

That would be less than 4 of the individual squares here. So less than flowers.

[Cam Harris @camharris_]

They passed that by 11am on July 5th alone

[Katie Miller @KatieMiller]

4,300 people ate at Taco Bell just in Michigan?

[Cabot Montana @AmanitaFugax]

Pro Waymo, pro data center, pro nuclear, pro solar, pro train, anti zoning, pro housing has to be one of the most correct and unelectable combinations in America

[Cam Harris @camharris_]

@LoganDobson How far you going to move that goal post?

[Cam Harris @camharris_]

@LAFC_X @victormargueta Not sure this is true. I got $400 face Val tickets on Gametime for $225 a few weeks ago. Jordan/austria next week

Biggest unlock = let AI handle the asking, answering and boilerplate.

Keep a human in the loop in the transforms and codify them in models so that numbers stay the same every time.

[Cam Harris @camharris_]

Full data pipeline that runs locally with one command. Point it at data files - it loads, cleans, tests, dashboards

No cloud or accounts. Nothing to wire up

The AI part: chat with data in plain English, turn a good answer into a permanent model or chart

[Cam Harris @camharris_]

Under the hood in a singular repo and CLI tool:

- DuckDB warehouse
- dbt for transforms, tests and lineage
- ingestion and profiling
- Streamlit for dashboard

Raw to staging to marts to dashboard with a single “make up”

[Tom @tombombadeel]

Imagine asking a human from any time in history prior to the 20th century if they wanted 3 almonds, to travel 20 miles, or to ask an oracle any question no matter how complex
