10 MW is only 400 Amps @ 14400 Volts. Pretty typical for industry.
Anything over 2.5 MW and you are going to have to get more than 480 Volt service anyways, that's 3000 Amps. The cost of the wire you would need to run would easily pay for a transformer.
1 - 2 MW is nothing for a commercial property though. The only reason your house is wired for 100 amps is you would rarely use over 30 - 40. If the demand is there to sell power, the power company will find a way to deliver it to you.
I design systems with multiple megawatt connections. The last place I was at had 50 MW of service installed to run 5 machines. It was nothing out of the ordinary.
Getting 250 Amps of 480 3 phase is nothing for a commercial property. That would handily cover your 200KW load.
It's been a complicated process to get to this point. The NWS has had to ensure that the software running on the new system is producing scientifically correct results. It had been running the old and new systems in parallel for months, and comparing the output.
This comparative testing involved examining output data to determine whether it is numerically reproducible out to five decimal places. There is also a statistical analysis of weather predictions on the new system against the actual weather conditions.
The process wasn't just an examination of numerical data. NWS scientists also studied the weather products and examined them for subtle differences. "There is a lot of human, highly experienced, subjective evaluation," said Kyger.
There are computational differences involved in switching to new chips and a new operating system. They are subtle, and appear in decimal places six through 12.
As you go further out in a forecast, the differences compound. The changes may appear in the fifth day of an extended, five-day forecast as a difference of one degree.
I really can't believe one of the Telcos wouldn't rather reuse their copper network (that touches nearly every building in every town) to form a secure isolated system for processing payment data, separate from the internet, instead of just letting it rot.
They just wire in and reuse old phone stuff to make a private network with connections and a firewall they manage, to guarantee (for a slice of security pie) that only specific data can go to specific places on direct routes, and no one can access the network without alarm bells and cops following the wire to the end.
And old fashioned wiretapping laws would already be in place to prevent unauthorized access to the wires.
Might be real popular real soon with all the card data being stolen.

1. Hack Sony Pictures
2. Change location of corporate wide backup server to one I control.
3. Profit!
So... Where are those three legal teams now that gave him the incorrect information that has led him to this situation?
They should be defending him if he followed their paid advice and ended up in hot water as a result.
All three teams would agree that this is a cut and dry case and step in to defend him.

Almost bought one at Target yesterday.
Looking into what can be done and other options for similar price. I want a Linux tablet (wish I could waste enough to get a surface pro 3)
that was funny

Updating my hosts file is the first thing I do after I root.

Waiting at my doctors office wouldn't bother me near as much if I thought he was posting to Slashdot:)
Perhaps on a Nexus device?
I'm not sure, I've never had one (and always have root)
I downloaded the package, and Python on my Android, but fell asleep in the docs last night.
It would be rather interesting to do those types of tests on the wireless operators, and the various Androids in my junk drawer.
Would running them from a tethered laptop give different results?
Fun times ahead.
Cheers
I wonder why Google did not put it in the Play Store?
Now I need to sideload apps to be secure?
Hey if the community can make FirefoxOS work on the Pi just think of how well it'll work on our cheap as fuck piece of shit Firefox Phone!

My old boss had a Porsche Carerra GT (and other fabulous Porsches in his collection) and he used to leave it parked with the keys in it.
One day I was joking with his secretary about taking it for a spin:
"You don't want to lose your job"
"I can get another job, but I'll never get a better chance to total out a sweet ass Porsche"
About a minute later I played a clip of one being started and revved up, and he bolted out of his office.
I made him take me for a ride (no he wouldn't let me drive it)
He let me follow his wife around Road America in one of his beater Porsches though!
I've always been curious about nixos.
Has anyone ever used it?

Sweet, we just had one of those...

We use Stateflow and Simulink to generate the software for ECUs
Intel's remote management software is scary when you look at what it can do.
They mention some of the more powerful features are only available on your LAN, hoping you'll forget that to some... The entire internet is their LAN.
Then there's the features they don't tell you about.
Scary capabilities advertised as control features.

Hopefully cheaper than a T1 too.
I have a similar Dell PC with 2GB of RAM I'll send to you if you could make use of it. Works like a champ, and has all those legacy slots and ports.

-20 what?
So...
What would 100 Tesal owners talk about while they waited 30 minutes for a fill-up?
No... No... No!!!
My car is the most awesome car in the world...
Oh. Elon... He makes the best rockets too ya know... dummass NASA pork...
Did I mention My car is the better than your car?
So... What kind of gas mileage do you get?
I'm so glad we have this place to hang out and talk Tesla...
If there was ever a reason to have the device driver firmware loaded by the OS, instead of being stored on the device in flash, I think this is it!
Otherwise, just pwn the network card, and you can send out digital breadcrumbs forever.
At least you can include firmware you think you can trust.
