Hello, and welcome to TechScape. I’m your host, Blake Montgomery, listening to Dolly Parton(美国乡村音乐传奇歌手) in the wake of(紧随……之后) her death. I was lucky enough to(有幸能够) see her in concert a decade ago in California, in the same arena where Google now hosts its annual I/O conference. It’s been a long time, and all my iPhone 4 photos are so blurry(模糊不清的) you can barely tell it’s a musical performance, but my memory is clear enough to compensate. She told many stories about her childhood, which led into a trio of fabulous songs: My Tennessee Mountain Home, Applejack and Dr Robert F Thomas. They’re still my favorites.
大家好,欢迎收听TechScape。我是主持人布莱克·蒙哥马利。在桃莉·巴顿去世后,我一直在听她的歌。十年前,我有幸在加州看过她的演唱会,地点正是如今谷歌举办年度I/O大会的那个场馆。时光飞逝,我iPhone 4拍下的照片都已模糊得几乎看不出是场演出,但我的记忆依然清晰,足以弥补。她讲了许多童年往事,随后唱了三首美妙的歌曲:《我的田纳西山居》《苹果白兰地》和《罗伯特·F·托马斯医生》。它们至今仍是我的最爱。
Tech dissection: datacenters divide Silicon Valley from US conservatives (except Trump)
科技剖析:数据中心使硅谷与美国保守派产生分歧(特朗普除外)
Silicon Valley has underestimated the backlash to datacenters in the US by a country mile(远远地,差距很大). That opposition has now achieved substantial political momentum(势头,动力): it’s blocking proposed projects, nixing(否决,取消) tax and power incentives, tilting(使倾斜,影响) the balance of the upcoming US elections.
硅谷严重低估了美国国内对数据中心的反对浪潮。这股反对力量如今已积聚起强大的政治势头:它正在阻挠拟议中的项目,取消税收和电力优惠政策,并可能左右即将到来的美国大选的天平。
The backlash has even led US conservatives – politicians and constituents(选民,选区居民) – to split from(与……决裂) wealthy allies in Silicon Valley.
这股反对浪潮甚至促使美国保守派——包括政客和选民——与硅谷的富裕盟友分道扬镳。
