Aluminium-ion batteries are a step closer to becoming a reality after a UNSW Sydney chemist found a way to make the science behind the technology work. Just posted so we can have another one of those aluminum/aluminium debates
Plus, new batteries could be good.

Dr. Kim said: We found a novel way to design rechargeable aluminium batteries by employing a redox-active macrocyclic compound as the active material
In other words, it's snot, and they discovered it because the lab assistant was picking his nose whilst preparing the experiment.

When they rupture, will they blow up any differently?

Considering how bright aluminium burns, I'd say they would blow much much better!

Following its alliance with Facebook around the Open Neural Network Exchange (ONNX), Microsoft is open-sourcing the ONNX runtime engine for machine learning. Nothing clever to see here - this machine never learns
And that's ML.NET for "machine learning", not a .NET version of the ML programming language. That's SML.NET. /sigh

How can Mcrosoft possibly be expected to write machine learning code when they themselves don't appear to learn from their own mistakes?

The MS guys are rightly proud of the way they're open-sourcing so much of their code.
It really is the best way in the world to pass the buck for bugs and **ck-ups.

Since they brought github for $7.5 billion in Microsoft stock they need to do something ....like put some files there that no one will use...

Quora announced tonight that one of their systems was hacked and has led to the exposure of approximately 100 million user's data to an unauthorized third-party. Well, their mission is "to share and grow the world’s knowledge"
That's all I know about them.

Well, at least it wasn't a plural number of users, so only one was affected.

There's now an invisible way to hack into the popular cloud container orchestration system Kubernetes. That actually took longer than I thought
"There is no simple way to detect whether this vulnerability has been used." Yay, team!

They were busy hacking Quora. And designing new icons.

And the best thing about getting into a cloud system is that you don't have to hack into a million computers to steal data from a million users.
The cloud should get awards for being the best hackers' productivity tool of the century.

This is the first preview of the next major version of Visual Studio. In this Preview, we’ve focused on a few key areas, such as making it faster to open and work with projects stored in git repositories, improving IntelliSense with Artificial Intelligence (AI) (a feature we call Visual Studio IntelliCode), and making it easier to collaborate with your teammates by integrating Live Share. For those who haven't upgraded to VS 2017 yet

Just struck me that Microsoft is like that teenager whose room is a mess and who smokes and drinks in his room, and then sprays some air freshener thinking nobody will notice.
And when someone does notice, they throw a tantrum and scream that "you don't understand."
