Will (And Should) The World Be Covered In Data Centers? - PATREON

Hearing Cody talk tech is very humourous. When Cloudflare went down I thought it was the funniest thing that most people were learning about this critical piece of the Internet infrastructure for the first time. It's all just magic tubes that let you go to Instagram to most people but for some of us it's a daily hell.

Important question: was the “America The Fart” line an incredibly obscure “Last Action Hero” reference?

Were you sent here by the Devil?

"space is cool and big" weeeeeell.... technically it is not... its just... empty... like empty of mediums to carry heat away elsewhere so in space you can only move heat out of an installation by radiating it out - no cooling towers, no spreading it out, no evaporation tricks... just radiating heat though its radiating a bit faster, because there is no stagnant insulating material like air around

by the way cody - is there any place to find more of your music?^^

Space doesn't solve the cooling need! It's hard to cool stuff in space because radiating heat is inefficient compared to conduction! There is no air or water in space to easily carry away the heat!

I really love to hear you playing. You should do that more often for the breaks. Also what would be cool would be for your writers to take one. Lets give some face time to the people behind this (other than the two of you, who are awesome)

Hi SMN team, planning commissioner here! Our regional commission was just reviewing a proposal for a hyperscale data center in our region (eastern PA) and a lot of folks who came out raised many of the issues you brought up in this video, which can only mean one thing: they're all SMN viewers, possibly even patrons. Joking aside, this is a great primer and I strongly encourage folks to go to their municipal and regional meetings to tighten up land use policies around these new uses.

When's the new album coming out, Cody?

No whales in space?! Haven’t you seen Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home”?

Luc Vercammen

Every video should have a Cody guitar solo from now on.
