Is there a large difference between the energy used by my hot water heater which is basically a wire with resistance that gets hot vs a crypto miner that gets hot?

How does flipping bits in a CPU compare with the resistance in a wire?

I'm not going to replace my hot water heater with a miner but I am curios about how they compare. People are complaining a lot about the wasted energy in mining and I am wondering if it would make sense or be feasible to use the heat energy generated by mining like in certain data centers. [1]
