This document discusses the development of a new type of battery that could revolutionize energy storage. It describes how the battery uses a slurry of lithium particles suspended in an electrolyte, which allows it to store 5-10 times more energy than lithium-ion batteries of the same weight. The document concludes by stating that this new slurry-based design could enable the widespread use of renewable energy sources by providing a means to store power generated from solar and wind farms.
Voyager 1 was launched from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station on September 5, 1977 to study Jupiter and Saturn. It flew by Jupiter in March 1979, imaging two of its moons Europa and Loki. Voyager 1 then flew by Saturn in November 1980, taking pictures of its moons Dione and Tethys before entering interstellar space on August 25, 2012, making it the first human-made object to do so.

Micro-architectural Characterization of Apache Spark on Batch and Stream Proc...Ahsan Javed Awan
Micro-architectural performance is generally consistent between batch and stream processing workloads in Spark if they only differ in micro-batching. DataFrames show improved instruction retirement and reduced stalls compared to RDDs. Higher data velocities can improve CPU utilization and reduce stalls, while increasing bandwidth consumption and instruction retirement. The size of micro-batches in stream workloads determines their micro-architectural behavior.

This document discusses the difference between digital literacy and computational thinking. While digital literacy focuses on using technology and basic computer skills, computational thinking teaches problem solving, logical reasoning, and how to program computers. It argues that India's education system still emphasizes digital literacy over computational thinking. The document then describes computational thinking courses offered by MyPal Online School in partnership with the Institute of Mathematics and Computer Science, including introductory programming courses and courses focusing on languages like Java. It shares a testimonial from an alumnus who benefited from these courses.

Open source as a convivial and democratic mode of productionLouis Florin
This document discusses open source and commons-based peer production. It describes peer production as large-scale collaboration that is decentralized and motivated by social factors rather than markets or management. Peer production enables modular, granular contributions that can be easily integrated at low cost. The document also discusses Ivan Illich's concept of "conviviality" as individual freedom through personal interdependence. Commons-based peer production can materialize virtues like autonomy, creativity, altruism, and cooperation. However, the relationship between peer production and virtues is not directly causal and remains normatively attractive rather than conclusively proven.
This short document contains a list of numbers from one to four, with each number on its own line and also written out in words. It provides a simple enumeration showing the progression from one to four in both numeric and written form across four lines.
The document shows the step-by-step work of solving the equation -|6| + -|-2| - 3. It first simplifies each term by evaluating the absolute value expressions to get -6, -2, and 3. It then combines the terms using order of operations to calculate -6 - 2 + 3 = -6.
