Starbucks HQ Could Host Data Center

A bold new proposal aims to turn Starbucks’ Seattle HQ into a data center, cleverly dodging city regulations by claiming it’ll stay under 20 megavolt-amperes—just below the threshold for “large” data centers. Developers plan to convert 45,000 sq ft across two buildings, complete with external cooling and backup generators, while the city weighs in on safety and zoning. This high-stakes test could reshape how Seattle balances tech growth with environmental and urban limits. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.

Money and Power Shape WA Supreme Court Race

Five seats on Washington’s Supreme Court are heating up as over $1.5 million pours into 16 campaigns, with incumbents leading the funding race backed by lawyers, plaintiff firms, Democrats, and labor unions. As the August primary looms, powerful endorsements—from Attorney General Nick Brown and Governor Bob Ferguson’s office to state treasurers and legal groups—reveal who’s steering the court’s future. Some candidates are backed by those who helped draft the state’s new income tax law, while others get GOP support, hinting at a brewing ideological split. With campaign finance reports still evolving, this election could decide whether the court continues its current trajectory—or pivots toward change, with major implications for landmark rulings, including the income tax case.
