The e-commerce giant plans to start construction soon on the new facility.
While the documents refer to the education company only as “Victim-2” and the U.S. attorney’s office declined to name the victim, a person familiar with the matter told NBC News that it is PowerSchool. The hack of PowerSchool last year is believed to be the largest breach of American children’s sensitive data to date.
According to his plea agreement, Lane admitted obtaining information from a protected computer and aggravated identity theft and agreed not to challenge a prison sentence shorter than nine years and four months. He got access simply by trying an employee’s stolen username and password combination, the complaint says, echoing a private third-party assessment of the incident previously reported by NBC News.
Our behavioral findings indicated that TMR weakened earlier acquired aversive memories while increasing positive memory intrusions in the interference condition. To examine how TMR reactivated aversive and positive memories during NREM sleep, we extracted cue-locked, time-frequency resolved EEG responses in the interference and noninterference conditions, and compared them with the EEG responses elicited by control sounds.
We found that when compared to the control sounds that did not involve any memory pairs before sleep, both interference and noninterference memory cues increased EEG power across the delta, theta, sigma, and beta bands in frontal and central areas (Pclusters < 0.01, corrected for multiple comparisons across time, frequency, and space, Fig. 4 A–D). However, when contrasting interference with noninterference memory cues, we did not identify any significant clusters (Pclusters 0.05). These findings suggested that delta-theta and sigma-beta power increases may indicate memory reactivation during sleep.
We next examined whether cue-elicited theta and beta power were associated with subsequent memory accuracies (i.e., remembered vs. forgotten) for individual positive or aversive stimulus in the interference condition, given the relationship between theta activity and emotional processing (19), and between beta activity and memory interference during sleep (27, 34). Employing BLMM across all channels revealed that the cue-elicited theta power over the right central-parietal region (FC5, C2, C4, CP2, CP4, TP7) was significantly higher for subsequently remembered than for forgotten positive memories (mediandiff = 1.39, 95% HDI [0.32, 2.43], Fig. 4E). For aversive memories, a few channels’ (Fp2, F6, C5) theta power was higher for remembered than for forgotten aversive memories (mediandiff = 1.04, 95% HDI [0.16, 1.86]; Fig. 4F).
Our memories may not be as reliable as we think. Once we experience an event, most of us likely assume that those memories stays intact forever. But there is the potential for memories to be altered or for completely false memories to be planted, according to Elizabeth Loftus, PhD. Loftus, a distinguished professor at the University of California, Irvine, is an expert on human memory and she discusses how our recollections of events and experiences may be subject to manipulation.

The correlated errors in superconducting qubits have been linked to high-energy particle impacts from cosmic rays, but a direct observation has been lacking. Here, the authors measure the quasiparticle bursts and correlated errors and separate the contributions of cosmic-ray muons and γ-rays in a 63-qubit processor.
Last year we introduced Project Astra, our research prototype of a universal AI assistant. Since then we’ve improved memory, added computer control and enhanced voice output, and are working to bring these new capabilities to Gemini Live and other products.

Swabs from China’s Tiangong space station reveal traces of a bacterium unseen on Earth, with characteristics that may help it function under stressful environmental conditions hundreds of kilometers above the planet’s surface.
Naming their discovery after the station, researchers from the Shenzhou Space Biotechnology Group and the Beijing Institute of Spacecraft System Engineering say the study of Niallia tiangongensis and similar species could be “essential” in protecting astronaut health and spacecraft functionality over long missions.
The swabs were taken from a cabin on board the space station in May 2023 by the Shenzhou-15 crew as part of one of two surveys by the China Space Station Habitation Area Microbiome Programme.
Recent research reveals that tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the active compound in cannabis, shows potential as an anti-aging agent for the brain.
