Tbh I’m surprised they found this bug.
Microsoft apparently doesn’t do QA testing anymore and the average Copilot user is an illiterate troglodtye who never changed the WiFi password on their modem and doesn’t know what a bug report is.

Sensationalized title.
The fight was between multiple students. From what I can tell the protest still continued.
FOX23 also spoke with a freshman at Will Rogers High School who shared the following statement:
“What happened today shouldn’t represent Rogers or its students as a whole. The incident occurred between only a certain group of kids and believe me, all of us students are very upset about it because we just want our voices to be heard. We know how bad this may look for us, but today’s events don’t reflect on anyone except for the students who acted recklessly.”
Video included.

multiply this (Current x Time)/(Weight) value by the nominal voltage of the cell to get to (Power x Time)/(Weight).
This is the part that annoys me. The nominal voltage could vary between different batteries. 200Ah/g means different capacity for a 6v battery verses a 48v battery. I’m guessing battery scientists are using standardized nominal voltages for these tests or are seeing the same Ah/g capacity at different voltages (that I may have simply missed in the paper because I skimmed it and I don’t claim any deeper knowledge on battery research)
- Comment on New sodium ion battery stores twice the energy and desalinates seawater 2 weeks ago:
the strategy of retaining crystal interlayer water yielded a specific capacity of 280 mA h g−1 at 10 mA g−1, one of the highest capacities reported for SIB cathodes in literature.
BTW its worth noting how far this is from market. Currently these batteries are basically just jars with chemicals.
- Comment on New sodium ion battery stores twice the energy and desalinates seawater 2 weeks ago:
They mostly these articles are showing new avenues for research. Most are deadends usually due to issues with production/scalability.
Sodium Ions batteries are coming to market, however the issue is that Lithium Ion are just improving faster and making it harder for Sodium Ion batteries to compete.

“Fuck me Sam, I don’t have anymore ideas on how to turn a profit. We’ve tried everything. How about we just give the AI its own infrastructure and bank account with the instructions ‘make money’ and see what it does? I know that safety guy advised against it before, but he no long works here. I mean if it becomes a singularity event, at least it’s our singularity event to control”

I personally think the UI for both XMPP and Matrix clients generally kind of suck, which isn’t great for convincing non-techy people to use them.
Ding ding ding. Make a Discord/Slack clone that does screensharing and drag/drop file sharing and I won’t care if it uses XMPP or Matrix

- Comment on Recreating uncensored Epstein PDFs from raw encoded attachments 4 weeks ago:
Some of the Epstein emails were released as scanned PDFs of raw email format (see MIME)
MIME formatted emails are ASCII based. To include an attachments, which can be binary, the MIME format specifies it must be encodes it using base64. Base64 can always take binary input and return an ASCII output. This is trivial to reverse if you have the ASCII output.
I’m a bit confused by the article only discussing extracting PDFs while in actuality you can reverse any attachment including images.
I am also no expert, so a smarter person will now correct me on anything I got wrong.
