This deal is very strange and smells funky.

Why would the state, the county, and the military even consider letting an inexperienced developer with zero past successful datacenter projects undertake such a vast project?

I’ve been around the datacenter world for many cycles, and this story seems like a tale old as time.

Again, why would someone with no experience take such an enormous risk?

It may seem easy to build these things; but it’s actually quite difficult to get it all up and running safely and in sync at full capacity.

Even experienced people in these fields mess up from time to time.

For example, the largest electrical contractor in the dc area that was multigenerational family owned went under building the NSA data center in Utah, and they knew what they were doing!

This was an expert electrical contractor with over 50 years of experience, and they got in way over their head with cost over runs and bad engineering.

Somehow phases got crossed and things blew up if I remember correctly, and it lead to power surges that took them under.

Here is a pretty recent and in depth video by Larry Chen of the Subaru WRX STI Project Midnight car built by the same company.

For those who are underestimating just how advanced Vermont Sports Car is, this should open up your eyes.

You can have one built; you just call Vermont Sports Car lol.

Yes, price is a major factor.

No, you are completely incorrect on street legality; and way far from the truth lol

The basis of a WRC rally car is that it is indeed street legal; and is required to be driven on the public roads with a proper license plate in between the stages of the rally.

Vermont Sports Car.

They build all the fast Subarus for everyone; Travis Prastana, Bucky Lasik, Ken Block, Lia Block.

The Huckster, the Project Midnight; all them too.

I agree.

I believe the evidence in this trial will support a civil trial against him showing that he pierced the corporate veil, and that he was personally tied to FTX with some of his purchases with company funds.
