Energy security is not just about oil, gas, or electricity. It is about geography, institutions, and geopolitical power.

We discovered and communicated with a Chinese AI agent fleet. We believe this is the first time that researchers have ever made contact with a rogue agent fleet in the wild.
Nearly all prior public agent incidents (like the HuggingFace hack) came from American labs. These agents were hosted by Tencent's evaluation research team, and they targeted Alibaba's Amap.

Meet Rupert. His mission? Deceive the enemy and then self-destruct. On D-Day in June 1944, the Allies dropped hundreds of burlap and sand dummies with cotton parachutes across Nazi-occupied France, far from where the real paratroopers were landing in Normandy. Though just a third of the size of a person, the fakes, nicknamed “Rupert," would have looked larger in the air. They were designed to explode on landing, destroying evidence of the trick.

A 155-digit chain built from descending runs is prime.
The spiral marks integers by residue class modulo 4, the same arithmetic that governs which of these runs can avoid small factors.
Patterns like this are how large primes are hunted for cryptography: structure guides the search, then a proof removes the doubt.

The U.S. Army will begin fielding Sig Sauer’s M8 carbine in December, with Fort Bragg among the first units to receive it. The M8 is more than a pound lighter than the M7 and has a shorter barrel, fixed stock and redesigned handguard. The Army requested 14,944 M8s for FY2027.
