Any electrical engineers out there? My current thoughts on it: - Power transmission to homes would be less efficient than to datacenters - Datacenter design can allow for better efficiency & build in energy generation - Datacenters = higher utilisation, less wasted resources.https://twitter.com/Hoigwai/status/1153582035971129344 …

From the article, I think the issue they were raising was that, now, there's no regulation or requirement for datacenters to have min efficiency standards. So right now the issue is that there's inefficient datacenters on top of the existing power usage. Hence, "can't continue".

Fair, but the economic incentives point in the direction of better data centres? An interesting one. Usually increased taxation would just drive them to another country, but that won't work for many datacenter applications. ...plus they'll want them in their legal jurisdiction
