[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why should areas where crops are grown carry a disproportionate load of the farming when everyone everywhere eats food? [/quote] Farms presumably generate some local economic activity, whereas data centers are run by companies based elsewhere and require very little manpower while using finite high-value resources. I think OP asks a valid question.[/quote] Thank you. [/quote] There are WAYYYYY more people employed per-acre in a data center vs a farm. [/quote] Nope. Not at all. Data centers are ghost towns.[/quote] I suspect there is confusion in the way data centers is defined. If you define it as call centers it is different than cloud computing servers. AI and crypto rely on the latter a great deal. [/quote]
