We're back with another Insanity Check. It's getting to the point where these episodes are more like weekly therapy sessions so we can try to make it through all the horrible shit that's coming up in the week. Kriss is joined by Ro this time and we're talking through some of the connective threads through all the things we're dealing with. The ability to see connections and understand the impacts of multiple things at a time is something we've seen really decline. And part of that is due to how some of the things we grew up doing either no longer happen or are much harder to get. It also doesn't help that parents have a much harder time being able to help supplement their child's learning because they're being overworked and have less free time We also talk about how the US stock market is held up by the same 7 companies, all off them responsible for shoving A.I. down our throats. And they're doing it while packing environmentally unfriendly data centers in populated areas. Also...they told us that A.I. would  take the boring jobs and leave humans to do more Arts & Humanities. So why are we talking about A.I. actors now? Full video on the expansion of Data Centers in residential areas. One note, turns out Ro & I were talking about two different A.I. cases around A.I companies stealing copyright content. Fun times when it's so many...you lose track.

Juliann Edwards is Chief Development Officer at The Nuclear Company. The United States has 93 operating nuclear reactors providing about 20% of the nation's electricity. After decades without new builds, Vogtle Units 3 and 4 in Georgia finally came online—despite cost overruns and delays that nearly derailed the project. Meanwhile, China has dozens of reactors under construction and is on pace to surpass the U.S. as the world's nuclear leader by 2030.At the same time, an energy-demand gap—driven by AI data centers, reshoring of manufacturing, and widespread electrification—has put nuclear back in the conversation. Hyperscalers like Microsoft, Google, Amazon, and Meta are scrambling for clean, reliable baseload power.The Nuclear Company believes it can crack what's held nuclear back in America. Rather than inventing new reactor designs, they're using proven models like the AP1000 and targeting “the other 88%” of costs—construction, financing, and project management. Their approach is fleet-scale deployment: building multiple reactors at once to drive down costs through repetition and shared learning. They're also partnering with Palantir to build an AI-powered operating system to orchestrate these projects.Beyond her role at The Nuclear Company, Juliann chairs U.S. Women in Nuclear. With 15 years in the industry—from steel commodities to the 2000s nuclear renaissance and the decommissioning wave—she's seen the cycles and why today's interest feels different.MCJ is a multiple-time investor in The Nuclear Company through our venture funds.Episode recorded on Aug 7, 2025 (Published on Oct 7, 2025)In this episode, we cover: [2:57] Juliann's background and path to nuclear[05:30] Women in Nuclear's mission and growth[06:38] Lessons from a six‑state nuclear bus tour[08:22] NIMBY sentiment shifting toward nuclear acceptance[10:25] U.S. build history and why it stalled[18:06] What went wrong and right at Vogtle[24:05] Nuclear reactor ~12% of cost; 88% is everything else[25:42] Workforce gaps and training pipelines[26:40] An overview of nuclear project types[32:59] Timelines: restarts soon; new builds in years[34:42] TNC's executive makeup[37:40] The role of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission[40:35] Palantir and TNC's newly announced partnership[48:35] Solving the nuclear waste problem[50:30] Juliann's predictions for the future of nuclear[53:10] Hyperscalers' evolving nuclear appetite Enjoyed this episode?

Host David From sits down with Chris Koopman, CEO of the Abundance Institute, to unpack why data centers—the backbone of our digital lives and the rise of AI—are straining America's electric grid, and how policy is either clearing the runway or clogging it. Koopman explains the explosive growth in compute demand, why years-long permitting and legacy rules are the real bottlenecks, and how states can welcome next-gen infrastructure without sacrificing reliability for “grandma's AC.” He also highlights creative solutions—from private grids to siting innovation—and why permitting reform is essential if we want abundant, affordable power. Then, the conversation turns to nuclear's resurgence, especially advanced and small modular reactors that promise safer, scalable, always-on energy to meet AI's round-the-clock needs. Koopman makes the case for empowering communities through competition and choice: defend open-source AI, let startups flourish, and allow states to pick the energy mix that fits their resources—whether that's gas, wind, solar, or nuclear. If America wants to lead the next industrial revolution, we need an “abundance mindset” that unleashes builders and modernizes the rules holding them back.

In this episode of Disruption/Interruption, host KJ interviews JB Baker, VP of Marketing and Product Management at ScaleFlux. They dive deep into the challenges and innovations in data storage and memory for AI workloads, discuss the hidden costs of data center inefficiency, and explore how ScaleFlux is disrupting the industry with advanced flash storage solutions. JB also shares insights from his endurance athlete mindset and offers advice for innovators. Key Takeaways: The Data Bottleneck in AI (2:01) The biggest challenge in AI infrastructure is not processing power, but storage and memory that can't keep up with demand. Hidden Costs in Data Centers (7:12) Up to 40% of data center power is spent on cooling, not processing, leading to massive inefficiencies and costs. ScaleFlux’s Disruptive Solution (15:38) ScaleFlux’s custom SSD controllers enable real-time data compression in hardware, doubling performance and reducing costs for enterprises. Endurance Mindset in Business (23:18) JB applies lessons from endurance sports to business, emphasizing persistence and continuous improvement as keys to innovation. Quote of the Show (3:41):"Those cores can process so much more data per second and so much more data per watt. But when the entire infrastructure isn't balanced, you're losing out on these efficiencies. And so there it is, creating hidden costs." — JB Baker Join our Anti-PR newsletter where we’re keeping a watchful and clever eye on PR trends, PR fails, and interesting news in tech so you don't have to.

HEADLINE: South Korea Faces "Techno-Totalitarianism" After Suspicious Data Center Fire GUEST NAME: Morse Tan 50 WORD SUMMARY: A suspicious battery blaze paralyzed over 600 South Korean government services, raising questions about server security and the destruction of intelligence. The timing is critical, disabling background checks on Chinese entrants. President Yoon Suk Yeol is strongly allied with the CCP, having purged military leadership. This incident, likened to the Reichstag fire, poses a grave threat to democracy and fosters "techno-totalitarianism." 1950 OFF KOREA

In today's Cloud Wars Minute, I explore how Microsoft and Oracle are battling for AI data center supremacy.Highlights00:15 — I want to talk about a couple of high-disruption companies — actually, three: Microsoft, Oracle, and OpenAI. And I think right now, it's safe to say that those three companies, together with SoftBank, are pursuing investments upwards of a trillion dollars in what they're calling AI data centers. I think this is a great thing for them to do.01:19 — Microsoft has become more vocal about its role and leadership in these areas. Oracle, OpenAI, and SoftBank are jointly building what is called Stargate, sort of the infrastructure brand for OpenAI. Now, Microsoft has introduced its own brand for its AI data centers, Fairwater. It's in the final stages of building what it is calling the world's most powerful AI data center.02:18 — And I have no doubt that fairly soon, we're going to hear from Google Cloud about some of its plans. I am less sanguine, in some ways, about what Amazon and AWS might do. I know that runs contrary to what a lot of people like to say — that AWS is still the king of the cloud. I haven't — you know, I just haven't taken that seriously in the last two or three years.03:14 — So, Microsoft is doing very well with AI. Now, OpenAI, led by Sam Altman — they're still doing some work with Microsoft on the cloud and AI. But it's putting — starting in a year or two — a $300 billion investment with Oracle to build a chain of just absolutely staggeringly big, powerful data centers under the Stargate name.04:09 — It'll work with Oracle very closely on that. They're also — in concert in some places and separately in others — pursuing some new data center deals with SoftBank. So OpenAI is working with Microsoft, working with Oracle, working with SoftBank — all in different ways. Oracle also has its own data center network for its rapidly growing cloud and AI business.05:01 — So lots of talk right now, lots of action, lots of investment going into this. But ultimately, the beneficiaries of all this incredible — what I think is unprecedented — competition, will be businesses and regular individuals like you and me. Visit Cloud Wars for more.

AI networks are driving dramatic changes in data center design, especially around power, cooling, and connectivity. Modern GPU-powered AI data centers require far more energy and generate much more heat than traditional CPU-based setups, pushing cabinets to new power densities and necessitating advanced cooling solutions like liquid direct-to-chip cooling. These environments also demand significantly more fiber cabling to handle increased data flows, with deeper cabinets and complex layouts that make traditional rear-access cabling impractical.
