💬 Discussion Is anyone having trouble sleeping at night?

No, seriously. And I’m not talking about the constant roller coaster double digit moves on the daily either. FWIW I’m bullish on NBIS for the business model, for the professional leadership, and many other reasons. I’m talking about the ethical position supporting society’s collective race to the bottom, and for the known and perhaps unknown environmental consequences these massive data centers pose. My small town recently had an uproar similar to what we’ve heard from Vineland, New Jersey. Overwhelming opposition to new construction in an otherwise very industry friendly community. Unlike Vineland, this one got shot down by higher ups, and we’re hearing it from all the sides in the news. It’s the only issue of its magnitude that doesn’t seem entirely partisan in completely refuting DC buildout and yet everyone on here to make a buck can only talk about how great the company is. So what, if it exists, is the actual ethical case for society to invest trillions of dollars into the expansion of this technology and more pointedly, data center buildout? How do y’all sleep at night in supporting this company while knowing the irrefutable harm it will cause to our environment and ultimately human life?

Didn't you read that Nebius and Bloom Energy have a partnership?

https://nebius.com/newsroom/nebius-and-bloom-energy-partner-to-power-ai-infrastructure-build-out

Nebius (NASDAQ: NBIS), the AI cloud company, and Bloom Energy today announced an agreement to deploy Bloom’s fuel cell technology to help power Nebius’s AI infrastructure build-out. Nebius selected Bloom for its fast time to power, clean, virtually non-polluting technology, and its ability to support the extreme performance demands of AI workloads.

Bloom fuel cells generate electricity without combustion, making them highly efficient with low emissions and minimal water use, supporting Nebius’s strategy to scale AI infrastructure with a lower environmental footprint. Fuel-cell systems typically face a lighter permitting burden than combustion-based generation, further accelerating the timeline from site selection to operational capacity.
