Quebec Data Center Built In a Silo
1sockchuck writes "A supercomputing center in Quebec has transformed a huge concrete silo into the CLUMEQ Colossus, a data center filled with HPC clusters. The silo, which is 65 feet high with two-foot thick concrete walls, previously housed a Van de Graaf accelerator dating to the 1960s. It was redesigned to house three floors of server cabinets, arranged so cold air can flow from the outside of the facility through the racks and return via an interior 'hot core.' The construction and operation of the unique facility (PDF) are detailed in a presentation from CLUMEQ."
Dumb mods never heard of The Forbin Project or the super-computer called Colossus

Please mod the above down, the first part is entirely false, the rest is simply xenophobic or whatever you wanna call it.
Yes, there is a law that incites non-english immigrant people to choose a french primary school since Quebec primary language is french.
Nobody prevents anyone to learn english, and there are of course english courses in primary school.
