Thinking about how Hudson River Trading has a data centre in Norway found inside a carved out mountain and cooled by fjord seawaters…that supports a salmon farm.
Water is piped into a former mountain-side mineral mine now hosting GPU racks.
Heated water sent to a land-based salmon farm nearby and the farm produces 15,000 tonnes of salmon a year.
Salmon are very sensitive to water temperature and the data center water (that came in cold from the fjord) is now heated to a salmon-friendly 20°C.
@Sam_McCandlish@METR_Evals Hiding results behind "it’s commercially sensitive" is exactly the wrong hill to risk harming us all, and I'll bet you, as Responsible Scaling Master, understand exactly how weak this sounds.
@kunchenguid I created a desktop widget that tracks both my Claude and Codex use, shows operational statuses, and warns me when resets are due to expire. Quick to create, always visible, good pay off. (Quick updates every couple weeks keeps it working.)
@TJeparskis I think he expected a rough ride - resets probably don’t cost them much at all, especially when they’re not banked resets.
I also think they’re riding the start of an RSI-capability wave that’s hard to manage, and probably fighting toolset fires as it gets off the ground.
@emollick Not just CS exposed: with AI help I emailed the CEO/CFO of xfinity over a 180% bill increase and got the increase knocked down significantly.
