Carbon emissions from the Engine Yard contest?
synnik: This would be difficult to calculate, because many of the resources dedicated to EY would still be running without the contest - they just would be doing something else.Figuring out how much extra power is used solely for EY, that would otherwise be turned off?You'd need to poll all participants and find out what hardware they are throwing at it vs. their normal operating state. I think it would be a worthwhile effort, but might be fairly tedious.
