  • Should it? Yes. Would I be any happier with either of those two you listed? Only marginally. Considering the significance of the French relationship with the United States (probably second only to England in terms of importance/loyalty of alliance) I would much rather the ambassador be someone like Karine Jean-Pierre. Born in France and worked as the White House Press Secretary for 3 years. Her political affiliation is independent. And it shouldn’t matter but she’s an openly LGBTQ black woman and unfortunately diversity is lacking at the moment. So she’s experienced in public communication and she has a Master’s degree from Columbia University in Public Administration.






  • He had two options. Allow new data centers to be built or put a moratorium on new data centers. If you’re mad that he chose the latter, then you support the former. If I’m missing something, please give me the thought process.

    Maybe you can say more can be built with documentation of proper power sourcing, noise damping, permits, etc. But it wouldn’t be well received here. People would just say that the state is okay with it and just wants their cut. Plus at the end of the day, its just another data center owned my monstrously wealthy individuals. The upfront cost, hard/software complexity, and the economy of scale for data ensures that there is no mom and pop data centers. So competition within the space is already minimal.
