Tech giants claim new cooling systems could slash data centers' water use — 5dPublic scrutiny over the water and electricity used by data centers is pushing tech giants to pursue lower-water cooling, led by Nvidia’s DSX closed-loop system that pumps warmer liquid directly through servers to cut water use. While this can dramatically reduce water consumption (with 2025 global use around 222 billion litres and potential growth to 644 billion litres by 2030 if unchanged), the trade-off is higher energy use in cooling and the need for robust heat management in extreme conditions, as the industry weighs efficiency gains against total environmental footprint.

Dana Whitfield Liquid cooling has been used in supercomputers for years, glad it's finally trickling down to regular data centers.

Mercury May Have Shrunk Up to 23 Kilometers — 2dNew research indicates Mercury has contracted 10% to 30% more than previously thought, shrinking about 12 miles (roughly 19 kilometers) in diameter since its formation, with surface debris from ancient impacts obscuring the planet’s shrinkage signs. The finding could imply a larger metal core or different core composition and temperature history, and future BepiColombo measurements are expected to help confirm the extent of Mercury’s cooling and contraction.

Dana Whitfield The debris from old impacts covering up the shrinkage clues is a good point. BepiColombo data should settle how much the planet has really changed.

Positron AI Raises $875M at $5B Valuation — 2dPositron AI raised $875 million in a two‑tranche Series C that values the company at $5 billion and will fund the tapeout of its Asimov memory‑first chip and the production ramp of Titan, as well as expanding manufacturing for its Atlas system deployed at Oracle Cloud. The round, co-led by NEA, Atreides Management, Valor Equity Partners, Andra Capital, SemiAnalysis Capital, and Jim Clark, will also add new board members and accelerate LPDDR5X‑based memory bandwidth‑focused inference hardware designed for air‑ and liquid‑cooled data centers.

Maya Lindstrom Jim Clark backing the Atlas ramp at Oracle makes sense given his hardware history, though scaling Titan production will still face stiff competition.
