Listening in on the heated discussion of immersive cooling while I was sitting on the shores of Lake Superior this summer, I was reminded of a recent NYT article on Microsoft's Project Natick:

The idea is that you circumvent the cooling problem altogether by dumping data centers in the ocean. I'm curious if anybody has crunched the numbers on this idea to see if it makes sense, just from a cooling perspective.
