Tech Fail
NOTES: Schneider/ABB: The Concrete Fever Dream
Schneider Electric isn't the Nvidia of infrastructure; it's a plumbing crisis in a software suit. Why the AI hardware boom is literally melting the floor.
Thermal Plumes
AUDIT: Schneider / ABB: The Brutalist Reality of Thermal Plumes
Schneider Electric’s $30B backlog hides a thermodynamic crisis. How thermal plumes and 15% parasitic loads are warping the concrete of AI data centers.

S01E32 : AI INFRASTRUCTURE 2/3: VERTIV/DIGITAL REALITY
Welcome to the Thermal Lens. The physical cost of artificial dreams. Legacy racks are shuddering, the machines are melting, and physics always collects.
Thermal Lens
AUDIT: Vertiv / Digital Realty: Gridlock in the Gateway
Auditing the Thermal Lens: How NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs, liquid cooling CAPEX, and EU AI Act mandates are exposing Europe's data center gridlock.
AI Ghost Ship
NOTES: Vertiv/Digital Reality: Rome‘s AI Ghost Shop
Rome's flagship AI hub is a 3MW ghost ship boiling the Tiber. Vertiv's liquid cooling is a thermodynamic shell game, and you are footing the bill.

S01E26 :AI INFRASTRUCTURE 1/3 :EQUINIX
The file bled through the static at 0300. Act one of a systemic collapse. Listen as we uncover the thermal limits of the cloud. The ice is gone.
Tech Slumlord
NOTES: Equinix: The Billion Dollar Thermostat
They sold us the cloud, but it's a windowless room in Jersey on fire. Why Equinix is the tech slumlord of the AI era, smelling of ozone and hubris.
Equinix Audit
AUDIT: Equinix: The Thermal Wall
A forensic audit of Equinix's $40.1B portfolio. Why legacy data centers face structural insolvency against the 100kW thermal wall of AI inference.

S01E23 : LUNAR LOGISTICS 3/3: ROCKET LAB/INTUITIVE
The cooling fans scream. We are the accountants of the apocalypse, auditing a collapse before the dust settles. The scrap value of the moon is negative.
Cislunar Mirage
NOTES: Rocket Lab/ Intuitive: The CapEx of Gravity
The Cislunar economy is a taxpayer-funded mirage. From leaky LUNR buckets to RKLB's lonely Time Lord CEO, here's how to get skint betting on a graveyard.
Cislunar Monopsony
AUDIT: Rocket Lab / Intuitive: The Architecture of a Vacuum
An audit of the 2026 commercial space sector reveals a fragile cislunar monopsony masking insolvency. Discover the brutal CapEx of gravity and NSTM-3.
