Three independent constraints — local grid/permitting failure of marquee hyperscale projects, state-level pushback on data centers, and Nvidia Blackwell shortages — are compounding into a hard ceiling on US AI compute build-out. Power and silicon scarcity reinforce each other as hyperscalers compete for both.
Russia's Domestic Squeeze: GitHub Lockdown Compounds Drone-Induced Southern Unrest
