As a result, Oracle is now required to provide cash collateral or a letter of credit in the astronomical sum of over $7 billion just to connect the building to the power grid, a setup whose ongoing maintenance will cost the company more than $100 million annually.

It's been positively infuriating to watch government bodies bend every fucking law for these companies at the expense of their constituents. I am glad that Wisconsin is telling them to put up or shut up.

These companies are cannibalizing themselves to pump money into provably unreliable technology.

I hope they all go bankrupt. This is gambling addiction at it's highest peak. And the higher the peak, the thinner the oxygen.

The bankrupcy of Oracle when it blows up will be the silver lining of this bubble.

And Meta and Microsoft getting seriously screwed.

To be clear, "boom" in this context is the original, dynamite generated sound?

I'm into it.
