In my area we're getting TV ads about how down-on-their-luck rural farm communities in Iowa have been SAVED by the construction of DATACENTERS and now all the formerly impoverished farmers have six figure engineering jobs and despite it being an obvious lie it never mentions what that datacenter DOES.
Yes your water table is getting sucked up and your electric bill is tripling so that thing can spit out oatmeal raisin cookie recipes that contain roofing nails. #IT #SysAdmin #DatacentetLife
Maybe I am just a bit salty that my employer, Big Software Company, which does enormously complex 3D model simulations for the aviation, shipbuilding, nuclear, and automotive industries is having trouble buying enough GPU cards because they're all going to fulfill requests like "Ruth Bader Ginsburg Large Naturals." but idk. #IT #SysAdmin #DatacenterLife
