An EU-funded project built a data center with a PUE of 1.0148. Can that be translated to the real world?

Whether strawberries, cabbage, or cannabis, indoor farms are increasing in number. Will they soon start competing for the same space and power as data centers?

Keeping up with the cryptocurrencies

A land-based farm has finally produced plate-sized lobsters- thanks to a data center
