inMy brother in law works at a data center in Ashburn and told me last week they're capping new AI training builds at 100 megawatts per site now
Power being the real wall makes total sense and it's kind of scary honestly. My cousin does electrical work in Virginia and he says the wait list for new hookups out there is years long now, like people are basically lined up for a spot in line. @knight.diana nailed it with the extension cord thing, except the cord is a whole new substation and nobody wants one in their backyard. It's wild that a company can have all the chips and money in the world and still get stuck waiting on a power company. Feels like the whole AI boom might hit a brick wall that has nothing to do with code.

Ask about mods and running condition before quoting. Saved my butt too.

Saw a study that most people still reuse passwords, so good call.
