  1. #SaveMyLouisiana leads protest against Applied Digital data center

    Story by Melinda Martinez, July 20, 2026

    "Save My Louisiana organized a #protest against the #AppliedDigital #datacenter being built in the small Central Louisiana community of Boyce on Saturday, July 18.

    "Those at the protest were concerned with non-disclosure agreements [#NDA's] signed by local officials, higher utility costs and the #EnvironmentalImpact of the Applied Digital data center. A few also questioned the true economic impact of the project, which they think will benefit the company, but not Central #Louisiana.

    "Applied Digital, a Dallas-based digital infrastructure company, broke ground in January on #DeltaForge1, a large-scale artificial intelligence data center located at James Road and La. 121 near Boyce. A news release issued by the Louisiana Economic Development states it is expected to be finished by mid-2027.

    "At a news conference held in May announcing the building of the $3.6 billion data center, Applied Digital board director Richard Nottenburg said that the Delta Forge 1 data center is not a traditional data center.

    "Applied Digital has been working on transitioning from air cooled to liquid cooled data centers, said Applied Digital president and co-founder Jason Zhang at the same news conference.

    “ 'Our design is a proprietary design that allows us to use very minimal water,' he said, adding that it’s an issue that is very important to communities where data centers are built." [So, in other words, an alleged "closed loop system"! But even closed loop systems have to be flushed periodically!!!]

  6. @ianto_jones @selfcare Oh, Ive been there, ianto, last year. #FlockSafety fired me (for of all things being #Trans , and forced me to sign an #NDA to hide this fact and accept my severance), but I guess when you are a #Thiel backed company, hating on #transgender people is easy.

    Fuck Garret Langley.

    And I had to spend 8 months #doordash driving just trying to find a job (at the same time).

    Look up Mobley v Workday. #AI recruiting is bullshit.

  9. RE: mastodon.social/@hyc/116816916

    This entirely unnecessary NDA culture has been commercial poison for me for the past 15+ years and also a huge problem for the open source projects themselves. NDAs are a legalese subversion of open source's social contract: Not being able to create case studies or otherwise publicly document how useful and time-saving the many tools on offer have been for many of my clients has been so damaging in the long run and it's making me question why I even continue with it...

    Clients get an incredible discount from using open technology, but then do not even allow you to mention their name as reference or talk about how the projects were used to solve specific problems for which they approached you in the first place. It's PR death for these projects (and CV death for people like myself) by a thousand cuts...
