This paper is pretty interesting, creating harmonic distortions via GPU workloads to attack data center power infra

@netspooky@haunted.computer I wrote a paper a while ago where we were considering a scenario of using a datacenter as a controllable electronic load for some experiments. We figured it would be pretty hard to actually break anything, even at much larger scale. I think in practice, if someone were to try what they describe in that paper, it would hardly have an impact beyond the immediate vicinity of the datacenter. https://dl.acm.org/doi/pdf/10.1145/3564625.3564640
