New Jersey consumers are hit hardest by a massive 27 percent shock wave with no end in sight.

The concerns are excessive electricity and water consumption, as well as sound and radiation exposure. Lobbyists at The Data Center Coalition, which argues for AI data centers, are totally tone deaf to the protest, saying they are &ldquo;mitigating any negative impacts to households and businesses.&rdquo; Really? &#8259; Patrick Wood, Editor.Opponents of the rapid buildout of data]]></description><link>https://www.newslocker.com/en-au/news/sci-tech/us-data-center-protests-go-national-as-backlash-grows/</link><pubDate>Mon, 20 Jul 2026 06:45:00 +0200</pubDate><guid>https://www.newslocker.com/en-au/news/sci-tech/us-data-center-protests-go-national-as-backlash-grows/</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Is Iraq’s New “Technocrat” A Rehearsal For Iran?]]></title><description><![CDATA[First, there was the Technocrat-in-Chief meeting on July 14 with an up-and-coming, newly selected Technocrat Prime Minister from Iraq, Ali Falih Kadhim al-Zaidi. Secondly, the multi-billion-dollar deals flowed like the Euphrates River.<br />
Why does this matter? Because we have fought two bloody wars in and over Iraq, and right now we are still pounding Iran, a country that is closely allied with Iraq.

The al-Faw Grand Port in Iraq connects to Development Road, a direct competitor to the IMEC corridor, linking Turkey and Europe. The new leader of Iraq, Ali Faleh al-Zaidi, is a businessman who is compared to Trump as the &ldquo;Trump of the Middle East.&rdquo; Al Zaidi just visited Washington to herald a&nbsp;broader framework for an &ldquo;economic partnership&rdquo; that would replace the old militaristic U.S.-Iraq relationship. &#8259; Patrick Wood Editor]]></description><link>https://www.newslocker.com/en-au/news/sci-tech/iraqs-al-faw-grand-port-to-be-the-largest-facility-in-the-mideast/</link><pubDate>Thu, 16 Jul 2026 17:53:00 +0200</pubDate><guid>https://www.newslocker.com/en-au/news/sci-tech/iraqs-al-faw-grand-port-to-be-the-largest-facility-in-the-mideast/</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[AI Executives Add Personal Security As Backlash Turns Violent]]></title><description><![CDATA[When society rises against you in vast numbers, when acts of violence are leveled at you to stop what you are doing, when you are forced to hire security guards for your personal security, you would think that anyone with a conscience would stop and consider: &ldquo;maybe it&rsquo;s me and not everybody else.&rdquo; Alas, that is not the response of a narcissistic sociopath, whether it&rsquo;s a CEO at the top or a city councilman at the bottom.

That figure came from METR&rsquo;s time horizon benchmarks &mdash; measurements of how long an AI agent can work autonomously on a task before failing. Early 2024 through early 2026, the data held with uncomfortable consistency. If you plotted it, the curve bent upward with almost mechanical precision.<br />

No outliers allowed. Chinese Christians only meet underground in order to escape prison, or worse.
