Calling a restaurant, in this economy?

Yep! Huge red flag.

“You can’t produce a baby in one month by getting nine women pregnant.” -Warren Buffet

It’s a quote about investing but applies to software too.

Water used to cool data centers is either consumed, meaning it evaporates into the atmosphere via the data center’s cooling towers or discharged, as industrial wastewater, usually to a local wastewater treatment plant.

It can’t just be dumped into a river, has to go to a sewer treatment plant.

edit: They do recirculate it, but it eventually needs to be replaced. And some facilities have treatment plants on site, so doesn’t necessarily needed to go to a sewer treatment plant.

These cooling systems remove and release all of the heat produced inside a data center – from servers, IT equipment, and mechanical infrastructure – into the outside environment, through a cooling tower that uses a water evaporation process.

It goes outside and eventually becomes rain.

Some water is used in humidifiers, there are also systems that use direct evaporative cooling where the water is eveporated to cool the hot air. There are probably other ways the water is lost.

AWS’ preferred cooling strategy for its data centers is known as direct evaporative cooling. In this system, hot air is pulled from outside and pushed through water-soaked cooling pads. The water evaporates, reducing the air’s temperature, and the cool air is then sent into the server rooms.

Some of the water is evaporated so it doesn’t leave as a liquid.

I just watched all the “Final Destination” movies and the 4th one is called “The Final Destination”. Then the went on to make a 5th, and a 6th is in production.

It’s probably the only option they can choose to close a ticket.

And the opposite where it was something so stupid you’re embarrassed to tell anyone it took so long to solve. The 30hr ticket with a 1 line change.

Oh yeah, I love edging.

Swapping the tabs would move them out of alphabetical order which would just end up annoying someone else.
