"I believe that there's a reason we [the U.S.] went to war. And I believe at the end of the war, the Middle East will be more stable than before."—Jensen Huang, Nvidia CEO '(about the Iran war)

CDUs Powering the Future of Liquid Cooling in Data Centers
As computing demands rise, CDUs transform #thermal_management by circulating coolant in high-density environments. They ensure precise temperature control, enhance reliability, reduce energy use, and support scalable, sustainable liquid cooling for AI, HPC, and modern #data_centers enabling efficient, future-ready infrastructure.

→ How Much Water Do AI Data Centers Really Consume?
https://spectrum.ieee.org/ai-water-usage
“Just as human bodies cool themselves by sweating, data centers are often cooled by water #evaporation—a process that dissipates heat and results in water being lost to the atmosphere, and thus being counted as "consumed."”
“Beyond the water that cools the servers, #data_centers indirectly contribute to water use through the #electricity generation needed to power their operations.”
"The AI industry engages in the same kind of labor outsourcing that many other industries do, finding places that are far away and off the radar of their average consumer to perform the dirtiest work. In the AI industry, however, there's an additional layer.
Anyone who buys clothes has an inherent understanding that they were made by someone, somewhere. With AI, that fundamental assumption isn't there because most people don’t understand that digital technologies have a very physical footprint and that a lot of labor is involved. By doing the same kind of outsourcing that other industries have done, it enhances the “magic veneer” created for their AI products."—Karen Hao
