Hey ( )

How are you, man? I was scrolling through YouTube and came across your videos. Loved the content!

But I noticed your channel has an old-school vibe.

Sometimes Siri would be inadvertently activated, a whistleblower told The Guardian, when an Apple Watch was raised and speech was detected. The only clue that users seemingly had of Siri's alleged spying was eerily accurate targeted ads that appeared after they had just been talking about specific items like Air Jordans or brands like Olive Garden, Reuters noted (claims which remain disputed).

There was no possibility of a get-rich-quick exploitation of Virginia along the lines of Mexico and Peru. There were no gold or precious metals, and the indigenous people could not be forced to work or provide food. Smith realized that if there were going to be a viable colony, it was the colonists who would have to work. He therefore pleaded with the directors to send the right sort of people: "When you send againe I entreat you rather to send some thirty carpenters, husbandmen, gardeners, fishermen, blacksmiths, masons, and diggers up of trees, roots, well provided, then a thousand of such as we have."

The 21-metre rule is, according to the Stirling prize-winning architect Annalie Riches, a bizarre hangover from 1902, originally intended to protect the modesty of Edwardian women. The urban designers Raymond Unwin and Barry Parker walked apart in a field until they could no longer see each other’s nipples through their shirts. The two men measured the distance between them to be 70ft (21 metres), and this became the distance that is still used today, 120 years later, to dictate how far apart many British homes should be built.

"You have data centers that are over two kilometers," says Smith, more than 1.24 miles. Some of the newer data centers are multi-story he notes, creating a second dimension of distance on top of horizontal sprawl.

…

Smith's remarks echo comments by others serving the AI industry, such as Thomas Graham, co-founder of chip startup Lightmatter, who last month said at a Bloomberg Intelligence conference that there are at least a dozen new AI data centers planned or in construction now that require a gigawatt of power to run.

"Just for context, New York City pulls five gigawatts of power on an average day, so, multiple NYCs." By 2026, Graham said, it's expected the world's AI processing will require 40 gigawatts of power "specifically for AI data centers, so eight NYCs."
