This paint may alter how builders fight mold and moisture damage

This is the one and only paint that's on the market that's designed to actually absorb moisture. If you take Lilypad paint and apply it to the wall, the film will actually absorb excess humidity as it starts filling the room, and then, when it dries, it resets itself by slowly letting it back into the space. So it's regulating humidity, Dr. Stein said.

This paint acts like a dehumidifier for your walls

It looks like ordinary paint, but a new coating called Lilypad Paint has a hidden ability to pull moisture out of the air. It works like a dehumidifier, without the energy use. If it's on the wall in your bathroom, it can suck water vapor out of the air after you've taken a shower. The paint holds the humidity in nano-size pores, and then slowly releases it as humidity levels fall in the room.

Trane swallows LiquidStack to juice its DC cooling lineup

You may recall LiquidStack was one of the early players in two-phase immersion cooling, and first dunked servers into tanks of dielectric liquids to cool down crypto mining operations. Microsoft was among the first to trial LiquidStack's tech all the way back in 2021. Since then, the company has expanded its portfolio to include both single-phase and dual-phase immersion tanks, plus direct-to-chip cooling technologies, including a rather beefy 10MW modular coolant distribution unit (CDU).

Houseplant hacks: do moisture meters prevent overwatering?

The method Moisture meters measure electrical conductivity in the soil, which roughly correlates with moisture. Push the probe into the pot, around the root ball, read the dial and water only if it dips into the dry zone. Cross-check with the old tests: feel the soil, lift the pot to gauge the weight, and look at the plant itself. If the meter says dry but the soil feels cool and damp, trust your senses.
