Air quality tests around xAI’s Memphis data center raise questions

techcrunch.com Tim De Chant 2026-02-24 03:42:42

Elon Musk’s xAI is the subject of scrutiny in Memphis, where natural gas turbines powering its Colossus data center have raised alarm among residents concerned about air pollution. On Tuesday, the City of Memphis released the results of initial air quality testing performed by a third party, saying that levels of the 10 pollutants tested were not dangerous. But the Southern Environmental Law Center (SELC), which is threatening to sue xAI on behalf of the NAACP, said that the tests omitted a key

Is It Cheaper to Make Your Own Soda? AccordionItemContainerButton LargeChevron Photograph: Matthew Korfhage Bubbling up your own water is convenient, it saves space, and it's by far the most eco-friendly option, versus stacking up cases of sparkling bottles in your fridge. But it's probably not cheaper. Aside from the initial cost of the machine, you'll need to continue to replenish CO 2 canisters.

How Today’s Pentest Models Compare and Why Continuous Wins

bleepingcomputer.com Unknown 2026-02-27 11:01:11

As threat actors grow faster, stealthier, and more persistent, the approach to pentesting needs to keep evolving. Traditional, periodic assessments no longer keep up with rapidly changing attack surfaces. Static tests offer a snapshot, but attackers see a live stream. Security testing needs to shift testing models to mirror how real-world attackers operate. At Sprocket Security, our Continuous Penetration Testing (CPT) solution is an always on, always active, and hybrid pentesting model. In th

Breakthrough cancer test predicts whether chemotherapy will work

A breakthrough test can successfully predict whether chemotherapy will work so patients can avoid needless side effects. The test, developed by the University of Cambridge, looks at the structure of tumour DNA and forecasts whether it will resist treatment. It was piloted using data from 840 patients with different types of cancer and found that it could help spot whether treatment was likely to fail for ovarian, prostate and breast cancers.
