Watched a video from Jake Humphrey (I know, I only have myself to blame) this week and got annoyed, so arranged my thoughts into a column. The convo around where data centers should be located is an important one, but not all interventions are helpful: www.datacenterdynamics.com/en/opinions/...

Jake Humphrey and a very British attitude to data centers

Legitimate concerns or Norfolk NIMBY-ism?

Lavery not out warming up with the other subs so one would assume he's imminent, presumably in place of McConnell

HT: U's 0-1 Wimbledon. Pretty much a perfect half for the Dons, soaked up a load of pressure, but had the only two chances of note, one of which Stockley converted. United flat since the goal

1-0 Wimbledon, Stockley sticks the ball past Eastwood at the second attempt, not incredible defending. United have had all the ball but not done a lot with it.

CoreWeave seems to be bobbing along ok - price is holding up - but even it is a much better prospect - has 1.5GW of capacity online. Nscale only has 55MW: www.datacenterdynamics.com/en/news/ai-c...

Really interested to see how the Nscale IPO goes, anyone who buys in will be betting on their ability to deliver massive amounts of compute based on very little concrete evidence they can do it: www.datacenterdynamics.com/en/news/ai-c...

An offside-looking Lisbie smashes a shot against the post and away to safety from a U's perspective. Neil Harris may have exploded if that had gone in

Feels like United need to be more aggressive. Bangura-Williams has clearly been tasked with following Wing around, but didn't get close enough to him in run up to goal and it's really limiting his ability to support Ahadme

HT: U's 0-1 Reading. Not a great half from United, Reading in the ascendency before and since Marriott's goal. Gonna need a big improvement if we're going to get back into this

First half of the half was pretty even, but they were bossing it in the run up to the goal and since. Don't think it's a lost cause but gonna be tough

Aaaand it's 1-0 Reading, Marriott taking advantage of a slip by Heffernan to swivel and score

This has not been a classic so far, Reading starting to assert some control and have had a couple of shots fairly easily dealt with by Eastwood. We look more dangerous - and more vulnerable - down our right

I don't mind that we're now in this world where a lot more physical contact is tolerated - on balance it's probably a good thing - but it's not good if it's just implemented haphazardly

Iffy half from the Mighty U's, but a lovely goal to level things up. I'd bring Pelly on for Heath to give us a bit extra in midfield, haven't had much control at all

Think Owen Moxon might be the the midfielder we've been missing for at least five years (one who can pass). Terrible at corners though. #camutd

Stadium certainly not worth the wait, but United playing well without testing the keeper too much. Hopefully a 1-0 defeat is not incoming

In fifteen years, the UK has deleted coal power from their power system, halved fossil gas use, replaced most of that with wind and solar, and the country has not suffered the hellish blackout apocalypse conservatives and media outlets promised would happen. ember-energy.org/data/electri...
