If fifteen men pissing in a circle, that is information, including the landing of the piss, its velocity, angle, volume and both smell and taste.
This article tries to explain how that data equals information and hence, mass. Not observed data is not information, and changing state of something requires energy yes, but does not give mass to an abstract idea called "information". Changing state requires energy, but information is merely a human concept of ordering those states.

We build homes out of bricks for lots of reasons. Not going to replace the brick that came with my laptop for a while
Going to get corrected on my math, but it looks like a 1200 sqft house would be able to store about 0.5kWh? Yay?

Quote: “Bricks are so special to humans. We live in them, we’re always interacting with them,” he said. “We just want to improve them.”
Why does something always have to be "improved?"
From Energy storing bricks for stationary PEDOT supercapacitors | Nature Communications[^]
Quote: Here, we develop a supercapacitor using a brick’s hematite microstructure as reactant to vapor-deposit a nanofibrillar coating of the conducting polymer poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT).
Right. Like I want to live in a house where the walls are coated with a chemical I can't even pronounce.

Despite the hype, less than 10% of companies deploy artificial intelligence at work, thanks to the low AI adoption rate of smaller firms. Most enterprises are still trying to find the natural kind

AddressSanitizer was designed by Google to improve memory safety in programs by identifying violations. I was surprised it's not for cleaning naughty words out of street names

First adopt chromium in edge,
now adopting add-ins from google in visual studio...
I suppose that with all the manpower busy creating the supermegahyper functionality to insert emojis they need to get the things that work from other places.
I only hope that it doesn't introduce a new level of telemetry in the source codes.

No. It won't. Create just one new level... The boys at Google are professionals...

With Windows 10 Build 20185, Microsoft has added a new panel that will let you insert emoji, GIFs, and even clipboard content. The one Windows feature everyone has been clamoring for - the ability to paste emoji
:eyeroll:
Glad they got all those bug fixes in.

or did you install the preview version and tried to paste it with the new function?

The Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico is currently out of commission after a thick support cable fell onto the dish, creating a large gash. Or that's what *they* want you to think

All that mess just because of a cable?
What would have happened if they had used a string instead?

The SANS cybersecurity training organization has suffered a data breach after one of their employees fell victim to a phishing attack. "Physician, heal thyself" and all that
I'd say it's more like the quantity and quality of phishing these days seems to catch everyone. But still: pretty embarrassing.
