Datacenter backup of backups

• A datacenter backup is another building far, far away from the main one (other town / city / country)
• You need it in case your main datacenter gets into a catastrophy (fire, earthquake, flood, tsunami, sinkhole, meteor strike)
• The backup datacenter is smaller and has less processing power, but enough to keep demand / response flowing, fair to bit slow, but keep the site(s) on air
•• backup datacenters are fully uitlized facilities, just smaller
•• they need the same as the bullet points stated above
•• they eat RAM HDDs SSDs et all, just at a smaller scale, but still large enough to hit the consumer market severely

Conclusion

We are fucked!

• just kidding ;)

No we are in heavy seas

• observe

History lesson

• In the 1990's there was a disaster with electrolytic capacitors
• They were produced with faulty dielectric materials
• The elco's swelled up (toxic gasses forming) after a short while of working (days, weeks to some months) then exploded or teared open, causing shorts which fried components like chipset IC's CPU's 16550AF UARTS sound ICs etc
• The capacitors were installed on hundreds of thousands of motherboards

We survived

• The computing world did not end!
• Many of you reading need to look this event up
• Most of the people who were fixing the boards have forgotten the event period

We shall overcome the LLM component crises

• Homo sapiens is a resilient species
• Our intelligence will prevail

Stay positive!

💾 Western Digital

We are sold out

WTF!??

Why?

• LLM's demolished the server HDD stock.

Western Digital has run out of HDD capacity for 2026!

Disaster for consumers small professionals & even large professionals!

CEO Irving Tan has confirmed the company is running on fumes
• Purchase orders from major customers & longterm agreements are reaching well into 2K27 & even 2K28!

• Three years of desert level drought is close for consumers regarding WD HDD's

Who is buying the HDD stock?

Datacenters

• LLM companies (what a set of ^&^#$&^)
• Cloud & Hyperscale Data Centers
•• many don't even have their datacenters built
• These entities now give WD 90% of its revenue.
• Consumer drives are just 10%.

Enterprise demand is decimating supply

• LLM training
• inference logs
• scraped STOLEN web data
• backups
•• these need many Petabytes of storage

Even though GPUs get the headlines (whining gamers), HDDs are the crucial backbone of LLM boom
•• They’re still the most cost-effective way to store Peta and Exabytes of data.

Results

• Consumer HDD supplies shrink
• Enterprise long term agreements {LTA} are locking in multi-year volume + pricing
• Price pressure is already happening (I feel them already)
•• A puny 8TiB Western Digital consumer grade HDD was 108USD two years ago all they way to my country of SR / SA
•• That same 8TiB HDD is now 196 USD to my country if and WHEN I can find it
••• I now find other brands easier but due to the higher quality they naturally cost more to begin with
••• Toshiba 7 Fujitsu are a few of those brands
••• I'd be better off getting a box of 24TiB server grade HDD's
••• In bulk ammounts, these cost less per TiB & they have many more IOPs that consumer HDDs

DRAM and NAND

We are all suffering from DRAM and NAND prices seeking amazingly horrific heights
• Try to get a 64GiB to 512GiB microSD card for a normal price (feb 2K25 level)
• While you are at it do the same with 64GiB to 256GiB USB sticks
• You won't find them (needles in haystacks aer a snap to find in comparison)
•• Large microSD cards are for now fairly normally priced (20% more) but I need small ones for my SBC computer(s) which need many OS distro's to boot from, to perform different functions with differen HATs

Since septenmber 2K25 my beloved consumer HDDs are getting much more expensive also

The LLM cycle of tsunami like destruction is not just 6nm IC's

It’s about everything datacenter wise

What is needed in a datacenter?

• H2O O2 N2 CU
•• you need water and those gasses to keep the natural flow of air running in your massive building which looks more like an Amazon storage facility than a computer server building.
• sand / grounds / realistate
• steel and iron
•• without those your facility can't even be build

• AC \ DC {not our beloved metal band ;)}
•• you need to power the servers, JBOD enclosures & HDDs, SSD enclosures to cache the HDDs, fibre optic backbones, CU cabling & rails, circuit breakers, switches
• AC regulation
•• AC regulation is a whole seperate topic which I'll touch briefly
••• I setup matrix UPS systems which take the AC from the grid, convert it to DC then make their own super stable PFC corrected AC for the server racks
••• This guarantees stable power on all rails in the datacenter
• AC is also generated on our own AC generator matrix
•• Some generators (in FIFO sequence) run concurrently with AC
•• When AC grid failures occur these generators give power within a few seconds to the UPS matrix, which keep feeding the rails in the buildings
•• The other generators spool up and stabilize fast keeping the datacenter running smoothly on power

Capacitor: от веба к мобильным приложениям. Часть 0. Зачем нужен Capacitor

С Новым годом, Хабр. Меня зовут Илья, я работаю Frontend разработчиком в компании Бастион. Январские выходные в самом разгаре, но уже многие, включая меня, наобещав себе свернуть горы в этом году, находятся в поиске полезной для мозга информации. Тогда присаживайтесь поудобнее, ибо сейчас мы будем разговаривать о такой замечательной технологии для разработки гибридных мобильных приложений, как Capacitor.

Январские выходные в самом разгаре, но уже многие, включая меня, наобещав себе свернуть горы в этом году, находятся в поиске полезной для мозга информации. Тогда присаживайтесь поудобнее, ибо сейчас мы будем разговаривать о такой замечательной технологии для разработки гибридных мобильных приложений, как Capacitor.

“There are things done today in electrical science which would have been deemed unholy by the very men who discovered electricity, who would themselves not so long before have been burned as wizards”*…

Climate change continues. There is broad evidence (and consensus) that our environment, thus our ways of life, our livelihoods— indeed, our lives— are threatened. On the heels of a call from Trump to world leaders to abandon the climate fight, followed by a disappointing COP30 conference, it’s easy to be discouraged. But that, of course, is no answer.

Rather, we have to find ways to mitigate the damage that we’ve already locked in, even as we acclerate a transition to clean energy… which begins by (re-)framing and (re-)focusing the challenge. Ember, a clean energy think tank, suggests a candidate that, while it speaks to the moral obligations addressed by one of the models it means to augment/replace, has a more positive orientation…

Humanity is graduating from burning fossil commodities to harnessing manufactured technologies—from hunting scarce fossils to farming the inexhaustible sun, from consuming Earth’s resources to
merely borrowing them.

This isn’t a marginal climate substitution. It’s an energy revolution.

The magnetic centre is the electron: we are revolutionising how we generate, use, and connect
electrons. Solar and wind are conquering electricity supply. EVs, heat pumps, and AI are electrifying major new uses. Batteries and digitalisation are connecting supply and demand.

Three reinforcing shifts. One energy revolution. The electrotech revolution.

At its core, this revolution is driven by physics, economics, and geopolitics. After all, the arc of energy
history bends towards solutions that are leaner, cheaper and more secure.

Short-terms setbacks matter, but fundamentals matter more. And the fundamentals are stacked in electrotech’s favour.

Physics. Electrotech makes a mockery of setting fossils on fire and losing two-thirds of the energy to heat. Electrotech is three times as efficient.

Economics. Technologies get cheaper with scale. Commodities get more expensive the deeper you dig.

Geopolitics. Three quarters of the world is dependent on fossil imports. 92% of countries have renewables potential over 10x their current demand.

Electrotech has grown exponentially for decades. The difference today is that it’s too cheap to contain and too big to ignore. If current exponentials hold for five more years, global fossil demand will fall off its plateau.

Welcome to the Age of Electrotech…

A long and meaty presentation: “The Electrotech Revolution- the shape of things to come,” from @ember-energy.org.

One notes that the electrification that Ember pushes has other advocates, many of whom have been vocal for years; c.f., e.g., Saul Griffin. Still, another voice in the chorus is welcome.

As we plug in, we might send charged birthday greetings to Franz Aepinus; he was born on this date in 1724. A mathematician, scientist, and natural philosopher, he is best known for his research, both theoretical and experimental, into electricity and magnetism. Aepinus’ Tentamen theoriae electricitatis et magnetismi (1759; “An Attempt at a Theory of Electricity and Magnetism”) was the first work to apply mathematics to the theory of electricity and magnetism. And his experiments led to the design of the parallel-plate capacitor, a device used to store energy in an electric field.

Cheap but really cool component tester/identifier can do 30μF motor capacitor 😮

Slightly out of its ±5%, but still ok.

That thing is so useful.

Создал свое приложение для изучения английских слов

Все привет! Я full-stack веб-разработчик уже много лет. И вот год назад мне пришла идея поднять свой уровень английского, так как мой уровень был A2, меня он не устраивал совсем. У меня уже были неплохие знания грамматики, но лексика и практика очень хромали. И вот начался этот тернистый путь.

This time my #soldering was a fail. This is supposed to be a #keyboard controller for playing my #StackSynth but the sample and hold part needs rework. The output voltage keeps rising. At first I noticed that I used a ceramic #capacitor where I should've used a polymer one, but this bodge didn't help. Maybe the #TL074 are out of spec (most likely fake ones but worked fine in the other modules) or the FETs are bad...
The keys will be attached using a stereo 3.5mm audio jack, and will be extendable like my perfboard version.

Well, I'm the lucky winner of this fancy arcade cabinet. No excuses for my terrible gaming skills now. Thanks so much to #Ionic for hosting this giveaway on discord! 🥰 I'll be sure to put it to good use.

If you aren't aware, Ionic's Capacitor and Ionic Framework (https://ionic.io) powers @voyagerapp! Some seriously awesome and underrated tech. If you have any questions about #ionic or #capacitor... AMA!

⁉️ #Ionic et #Capacitor sont-ils en danger ?

On peut s'interroger, vu que la société Ionic a annoncé l'arrêt de tous les services commerciaux (#Appflow, Identity Vault…).
En revanche, toute la partie opensource est bien maintenue.

It appears Android WebViews finally implement `safe-area-inset-*` environment variables properly¹²³ 🎉

---

1. Only on Android 15+ when built with an SDK version 35+

2. Because Android 15 & SDK 35 now enforce edge-to-edge display mode on everything, so have fun with the bottom navigation bar for people who don't use gesture navigation

3. `viewport-fit=cover` vs `viewport-fit=contain` makes no difference on Android

#Android #AndroidDev #Cordova #Ionic #Capacitor #WebView

Are there any #ionic / #capacitor experts on here that can point me to a template that passes the #appflow Android CI.

I've tried 3 templates now and all fail CI, help articles haven't been super useful.

Once I've got a stable build I'll be comfortable iterating. Surprised AppFlow's own templates don't compile.

@bart @ianthetechie @mvexel @zverik thx for the hint. I looked at #ionic and #capacitor but programming on a webview feels like an extra layer of complexity to me. At least compared to a kind of native approach that #flutter #reactnative or #jetbrainscompose have. also I have not found any hints about the usage of #maplibre with #ionic so far (except of your example)

Today I present to you....the lateral #induction #launcher I built in my 20s. Two opposing hand made pancake #coils with a 1/8" #aluminum disc between. #Discharge #capacitor bank, disc shoot like a gun...err....the #Unreal Tournament weapon we all loved most. This cheaply constructed prototype blew up after 5 shots or so. #science #highvoltage #electricity #NineLives

Finished #soldering the #perfboard yesterday. Sadly, it didn't work as intended. Now comes the fun part — analyzing and fault finding. Already fixed one of the issues by replacing a #capacitor with a bigger one. Now the trigger and gate are generated correctly, but the output buffer for them are constantly high. The sample and hold for the CV outputs worked from the beginning.

@ieure @ifixcoinops

This is all fantastic info, thank you both.

When it comes to basic restoration like re-capping, is it straightforward? Specifically, did they tend to use standard, marked components so it's easy to see what they should be replaced with? Schematics/service manuals findable on the 'net?

More modern electronics with sanded-off, lasered-off, or never-marked-in-the-first-place components is annoying to try to do this with.
