Watching the videos of the planes crashing into the towers feels just as scary now as it did back then. I’m all choked up, my heart hardly feels like it’s beating, and I can’t get a good breath.

Slop does not refer to criticism or mere dislike. You can use even the most colloquial of definitions for slop and all of them at least minimally refer to volume and machine produced.

“There are very real reasons for people to be concerned about this buildout.” I spoke to @joshwmarcus.bsky.social about why the data center backlash is justified and is going to be a big issue in the US midterms. www.the-independent.com/news/world/a...

“You can try to make an argument that data centers are not really a concern, that people are overreacting, that the tech industry should just go ahead and be able to do what it wants, but when you actually zoom into the growing number of communities that are having experiences with data centers, you can see that is not how things are actually playing out on the ground,” said tech journalist Paris Marx, author of the forthcoming Hyperscale: The Ambition and Excess of Big Tech's Data Empires.

“There are very real reasons for people to be concerned about this buildout.”

going to make the shameless plug for my book on this exact subject, where i argue that even if data centers were built more sustainably, they would still be fundamentally unsustainable when built at this scale: meaning both the hyperscale size of modern data centers, but also the number being built

Some ephemera that I’m struggling with. Not sure if there is any point in keeping any of this. It’s all over 10+ years old, basically remnants of a past Jasmine.

This month, we’re doing something special. @parismarx.com’s new book HYPERSCALE is out on October 20, so we’re bringing back DATA VAMPIRES. In Episode 1, Paris digs into how data centers went hyperscale—and the role of the cloud in how we got to this point. Full ep: techwontsave.us/episode/344_...

New investigation from me. The 23 websites are designed to influence the answers that AI chatbots give to voters in Alberta, targeting farmers, young people, veterans, mothers and oil industry workers. www.nationalobserver.com/2026/09/04/i...

nationalobserver.com

A US-linked network of fake websites is promoting Alberta separatism to AI chatbots

The websites present crude, AI-generated slop disguised as the voice of real Albertans. But they're made in Florida — and they're not even targeting Albertans directly.

The feed is much like dog kibble and turns to a sludge when it gets wet. It’s offloaded from one boat in large bags made of tarp, which are used once, trucked to a storage place, then trucked back to the wharf to be loaded into another boat

In October, my new book HYPERSCALE hits shelves in North America and Europe. But my dive into the world of data centers started over two years ago when I put together a series called DATA VAMPIRES. With opposition to data centers exploding, I decided this was a good moment to bring the series back.

I’m looking to get in touch with folks who’s last name is Holden and are descendants of Holdens who lived on Southside Road in St. John’s. It’s for family history and genealogy. My Holden ancestors are from Shaw Street and I’m trying to find out if the families are related.

The United States is taking aim at Canada once again, with a crushing new set of tariffs. Ultimately, government will need to solve this. But in the same way Canadians are avoiding US alcohol, produce, and other goods, they should get off US tech products too. Luckily, I have a guide for that.

As a new Harry Potter trailer makes the rounds, it bears repeating that there’s no way to watch this show without supporting J.K. Rowling’s bigotry and the structural violence she’s inflicting on the trans community.

There is no ethical consumption of HBO’s Harry Potter series

You can’t without supporting Rowling’s transphobic bigotry.
