Abstract: The present invention provides a novel system to enhance data center energy
efficiency by integrating thermoelectric generators (TEGs) with direct DC power distribution,
battery storage, and variable refrigerant flow (VRF) cooling. This system harnesses waste heat
from server components, converting it into usable electricity through TEGs, which supplement
the direct DC power supply and battery storage. The VRF cooling system with direct-to-chip
refrigerant loops ensures precise thermal management, optimizing the temperature differential
necessary for TEG efficiency. By dynamically adjusting refrigerant flow, minimizing AC-to-DC
conversion losses, and leveraging recovered energy, this system significantly reduces data center
power consumption and achieves a Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) close to or below 1.0. This
integrated approach offers a sustainable, cost-effective, and scalable solution to improve data
center operations.
> It is a lazy dodge around the traditional responsibility of regulators to identify and regulate actual anti-competitive behavior when it actually happens
Traditional since the ‘70s, when Chicago school jackasses got their way and all but destroyed antitrust enforcement, in practice.
A shift back would be great. Let’s get a little more traditional.
This made me remember my favorite cracktro from INC. Something about this song captures how I felt about the whole "warez" scene when I was a kid... cool, mysterious - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c9-5bQ4mSQI
usually, there are also "friend links" for Medium articles, but for reasons I cannot know, this one looks like it doesn't include one, so I guess yes, it's available only to members.
fwiw, a Medium membership gives me access to - most of the time - higher quality content.
I am accusing no one individually or particularly. I am observing that the problem is that within a bubble, people collectively become increasingly unserious and less intellectually honest as their appetite for risk increases with their desire to get a slice of the action. Indeed, it gets worse as people begin to think it might not last forever.
The same thing happened in the dotcom era, the same thing happened in the run-up to the subprime mortgage crisis. Every single bubble displays these characteristics.
I really like the solar roof and bed cover add-ons. They don't have specs but should be roughly 4 square meters combined or so? so about 800w at peak power. Not enough to let you rely on it even if you live in a sunny place, but it could add up to a nice reduction in cost per mile if you use it to commute and park it in the sun.
It’s pretty difficult because my manager is very incompetent and micro manages everything, he has called my personal phone after hours many times asking about things

If you agree it is a bubble, you are agreeing it is going to burst. Because that is what defines a bubble.
I have two questions about this, really:
- is he going to be the last guy getting this kind of value out of a couple of research papers and some intimidated CEO's FOMO?
- are we now entering a world where people are effectively hypothetical acquihires?
That is, instead of hiring someone because they have a successful early stage startup that is shaking the market, you hire someone because people are whispering/worried that they could soon have a successful early stage startup?
The latter of these is particularly worrisomely "bubbly" because of something that people don't really recognise about bubbles unless they worked in one. In a bubble, people suspend their disbelief about such claims and they start throwing money around. They hire people without credentials who can talk the talk. And they burn money on impossible ideas.
The bubble itself becomes increasingly intellectually dishonest, increasingly unserious, as it inflates. People who would be written off as fraudsters at any other time are taken seriously as if they are visionaries and ultra-productive people, because everyone's tolerance for risk increases as they become more and more desperate to ride the train. People start urgently taking impossible things at face value, weird ideas get much further advanced much more quickly, and grifters get closer to the target -- the human source of the cash -- faster than due dilligence would ordinarily allow them.
"This guy is so smart he could have a $1bn startup just like that" is an obvious target for con artists and grifters. And they will come.
For clarity I am ABSOLUTELY NOT saying that the subject of this article is such a person. I am perfectly happy to stipulate that he's the real deal.
But he is now the template for a future grift that is essentially guaranteed to happen. Maybe it'll be a team of four or five people who get themselves acquihired because there's a rumour they are going to have billions of dollars of funding for an idea. They will publish papers that in a few months will be ridiculed. And they will disappear with a lot of money.
I mean I know right? I just decided not to give a f*. Felt so rigged af.
In my category, nothing worked for the winner's platform. While I had the full flow working, the subscriptions etc. Like what? I don't mind losing, but you know the winner with ai generated video with 0 working product shown feels kind of mildly not it.

This is what happens when you use Google for recipes. And a good hint that this article does not represent the average demographic; most people outside of her's do not want room mates good reason.
"Loneliness can only be alleviated by an entity that can judge"...won't say your wrong, but does that include for you: "An entity that gives you food for thought"?
Or as a well more philosophic-Question (call it an oldie): "Needed existence to substain sustaining the saints?"
OT: There once was a saying that while talking to god a lot people became angry, asked by god "Angry for what?" so the people answered, "Angry about you god...", "cos been angry about the people around sometimes..." So god answered: "Like you i also become angry about the people sometimes" and those listening Crowd, knowed from in there, "That was the reason for why god didn't showed up most of the time ?"
