First talk of today's #CablesOfResistance: a talk by Dr. Silvia Weko from #FAU (the university not the union) on the role of big tech in energy transition through cloud computing. Nice to see a nuanced view on the technologies followed by an analysis on how this leads to bi-directional, structural dependencies between energy and cloud computing companies. As noted yesterday in the keynote: interoperability only works between a small few cloud companies.
