Farmland + solar + a home node is the ultimate safety bet

“That’s why when I said farmland — I think that’s the ultimate safety bet you can actually make. If you have food to eat and shelter and water — and farmland will give you ample opportunity to capture solar, and even have data centers or small buildouts, with Akash home node coming along very soon. I’m very pro rural and less urban.” — 02:13:08

Context: Core local-compute claim: energy-rich rural land plus home GPU nodes as the hedge against AI resource stress. He then says: “recently we announced home node as a solution to this energy problem, where, as I predicted several years ago, the energy is going to be a bottleneck — I testified before Congress about it.”
