>hmm, let's do some back-of-the-envelope math
>daily power usage in the UK of phones and data centers:
>70M phones draw ~52 MW
>Data centers draw ~2.8GW
Shut down ~2% of all the data centers to reduce the total draw of all phones in the UK? It's literally only 2% of capacity, not a big sacrifice to make for the environment!
Or, if we just consider the London stock exchange ecosystem, a large chunk of which is HFT. We shut down 50% of its capacity to save 1-2x as much as all the phones in the UK combined!
Wow, what an opportunity for power savings! We all must make sacrifices!
