Coplit for M365 -> access local/network files – > Any other options?
I have a question regarding the access of M365 to local and network files and what other options I might have.
I’ve noticed that Copilot for Teams has access to OneDrive, but Copilot for Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, for example, can only access SharePoint links. Can you confirm this?
I have also found that Copilot does not have access to local files or network files.
I once heard from an IT service provider that Microsoft is working on a copilot that would have access to local/network files. Is this true?
Since the current Copilot for M365 does not have access to local/network files, I would like to ask the following question: Is there another AI tool from a third-party provider that has access to local files and network files?

Question about Windows 11 AI ?
I’ve been experiencing some strange behavior with Windows 11, and I’m wondering if it’s related to the AI-powered features. Lately, my system has been consuming a large amount of memory without any apparent reason, and I’ve noticed that some processes are running in the background that I don’t recognize. I’m concerned that it might be a result of Windows’ AI-driven optimization or prediction features, but I’m not sure what’s causing it or how to troubleshoot it. Has anyone else experienced similar issues with Windows 11’s AI capabilities?

Microsoft Learn Student Ambassadors Program Interview Series Episode 1
Welcome to the Microsoft Learn Student Ambassadors Program Interview Series!
In this series, we will hear and learn from current and old Microsoft Learn Student Ambassadors about their personal experiences with the Microsoft Learn Student Ambassadors Program and why they think students should join and be a part of the program and community.
Today, I will be interviewing Favour Adeshina, he is a Gold Microsoft Learn Student Ambassador from Nigeria, in the EMEA region, and a graduate of Computer Science Education, at Ekiti State University, Ado-Ekiti. And also a Full-Stack Software developer and Community Manager.
What year did you join the Program and how did you hear about the Microsoft Learn Student Ambassadors Program?
I joined the Microsoft Learn Student Ambassadors program in 2020 because a senior friend in school then told me about it and shared the benefits of the program.
What are your personal experiences and how have you benefited from the Microsoft Learn Student Ambassadors Program?
The benefits of the program are truly enormous and one benefit I love the most is the network that the program comes with. Having to collaborate with other students in the program within the country outside the country, and region is significant. This has made me build sustainable relationships that have bolstered my career growth and journey in tech.
The fact that I have the opportunity to organise upskilling events (workshops, Bootcamps), has made me pick up a lot of skills both technical and soft skills such as event planning, collaboration, public speaking, etc. Also the resources available to me as a Microsoft Learn Student Ambassador alongside the vouchers, and Azure credits. These and several others are the benefits I have gained from the program.
My experience as an ambassador has been truly amazing, I have picked up leadership skills as an ambassador and have been able to truly stand out as a Force for Good in my local community, providing technical guidance for young teenagers and youths within my environment.
So far the program has enlightened me, giving me resources to learn everything I need and massively upskill.
What advice do you have for students?
As a student joining the Microsoft Learn Student Ambassadors program, it will set you up right for your career and personal development. Such that even before you are done with school, you have an internship and other opportunities available to you. It is very important as a student you join the MLSA program and you are active in the community.

Dynamically Updating Azure IP Ranges with PowerShell and DevOps
Introduction
Keeping your Azure IP ranges up-to-date is crucial for maintaining the security and efficiency of your cloud environment. This blog post will guide you through the process of dynamically updating your Azure IP ranges using the official Azure documentation, PowerShell scripts, and DevOps practices.
Table of Contents
Understanding Azure IP Ranges
Official Azure Documentation
Using PowerShell to Retrieve and Update IP Ranges
Automating Updates with Azure DevOps
Conclusion
1. Understanding Azure IP Ranges
Azure IP ranges are used to define the network boundaries for your services in Azure. These ranges are periodically updated by Microsoft, and it’s essential to ensure that your network configurations are aligned with these changes to avoid any disruptions.
2. Official Azure Documentation
Microsoft provides comprehensive documentation on Azure IP ranges, which includes a list of all the IP addresses used by Azure services. You can find this documentation here.
3. Using Power BI to Visualize the IP Address Changes
I wrote a small Power BI Dashboard to visualize the changes. The thinking behind it was that Network engineers could search and view the Updated IPs. Even though this did not automate their firewall processes it was a quick way to lookup an IP. You can find a copy of the below Power BI in my GitHub Repo –> RallTheory/AzureAndOffice365IPAddresses at main · WernerRall147/RallTheory (github.com)
4. Using PowerShell to Retrieve and Update IP Ranges
PowerShell is a powerful scripting tool that can help you automate the retrieval and updating of Azure IP ranges. Below is a sample script that demonstrates how to fetch the latest IP ranges and update your network configurations.
# Import necessary modules
Import-Module Az
# Define the URL for the Azure IP ranges JSON file
$ipRangesUrl = “https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/confirmation.aspx?id=56519”
# Download the JSON file
Invoke-WebRequest -Uri $ipRangesUrl -OutFile “AzureIPRanges.json”
# Parse the JSON file
$ipRanges = Get-Content -Path “AzureIPRanges.json” | ConvertFrom-Json
# Example: Update network security group rules with new IP ranges
$nsgName = “YourNetworkSecurityGroup”
$resourceGroupName = “YourResourceGroup”
foreach ($range in $ipRanges.values) {
New-AzNetworkSecurityRuleConfig -Name “AllowAzureIPs” `
-Description “Allow Azure IP Ranges” `
-Access Allow `
-Protocol * `
-Direction Inbound `
-Priority 100 `
-SourceAddressPrefix $range `
-SourcePortRange * `
-DestinationAddressPrefix * `
-DestinationPortRange 80 `
| Add-AzNetworkSecurityGroupSecurityRuleConfig -NetworkSecurityGroupName $nsgName -ResourceGroupName $resourceGroupName
}
# Apply the updated NSG configuration
Set-AzNetworkSecurityGroup -NetworkSecurityGroupName $nsgName -ResourceGroupName $resourceGroupName
5. Automating Updates with Azure DevOps
To fully automate the process, you can use Azure DevOps to run your PowerShell script on a schedule. Here’s a step-by-step guide to setting up a pipeline in Azure DevOps:
Create a New Pipeline: Go to your Azure DevOps project, and under Pipelines, click on “New Pipeline”.
Select the Repository: Choose the repository where your PowerShell script is stored.
Configure the Pipeline: Use the YAML editor to define your pipeline. Below is an example YAML configuration.
trigger:
– main
schedules:
– cron: “0 0 * * *” # Runs every day at midnight
displayName: Daily midnight build
branches:
include:
– main
pool:
vmImage: ‘ubuntu-latest’
steps:
– task: UseDotNet@2
inputs:
packageType: ‘sdk’
version: ‘5.x’
installationPath: $(Agent.ToolsDirectory)/dotnet
– task: PowerShell@2
inputs:
targetType: ‘filePath’
filePath: ‘$(Build.SourcesDirectory)/UpdateAzureIPRanges.ps1’
arguments: ‘-ResourceGroupName YourResourceGroup -NsgName YourNetworkSecurityGroup’
pwsh: true
Save and Run: Save your pipeline and run it to ensure everything is configured correctly.
6. Conclusion
By following these steps, you can ensure that your Azure IP ranges are always up-to-date, enhancing the security and reliability of your cloud environment. Automating this process using PowerShell and Azure DevOps not only saves time but also minimizes the risk of human error.

How to create a suitable statistical test for my repeated measures problem with unequal sample sizes?
dear community,
i have the following problem: I want to test differences of specific repeated measures during a pre and a post test:
my datasets has 10 subjects, each subjects did 2 tasks (called pre and post). during each task, I did repeated measurements of 5 different parameters (each set of 5 parameters were taken at the same time) over time. In addition, each pre and post measurement can be divided into two segments A and B. Now, i want to analyze the differences between pre and post on four different levels: on each of the parameters
taking parameter, I want to compare
subject wise and segement wise, e.g. Subj1, pre, A to Subj1, post, A
subjects wise only, both segments together, e.g. Subj1, pre, A+B to Subj1, post, A+B
segment-wise, but all subjects, e.g. Subj1to10, pre, A to Subj1to10, post, B
all subjects, both segements: Subj1to10, pre, A+B to Subj1to10, post, A+B
note that segments A/B and pre and post measurements do not have equal sample size, the samples are not independent and they may not be normally distributed.
How to tell, if there is a statistical significant difference between pre and post test at each of the four levels, and a suitable post-hoc analysis to tell, how this difference might be directed (probably looking at the median?)
And of course i need to compensate for mutiple comparison due to the 4 levels and the 5 parameters is measured at the same time?
best regards

Unable to save files in MATLAB Online
I have been using MATLAB Online for six months because I had a chromebook. This week, I got a windows, so I installed MATLAB on it. All of a sudden, my MATLAB Online has started acting weirdly. It would let me log in and run files, but it would not let me save ANYTHING. If I edit an existing script, I can’t save changes. If I create a new script, I can’t run it (because I need to save it first). If I create an image using my existing codes, I cannot export it either (because that ‘saves’ the image as a png).
I don’t think that switching my computer has anything to do with this problem, but they happened around the same time. I have doubts in my mind that this could have something to do with using the same license on both places, but I find it highly unlikely.
Any help is greatly appreciated.I have been using MATLAB Online for six months because I had a chromebook. This week, I got a windows, so I installed MATLAB on it.

How to integrate an implicit acceleration function to a fitting pair of graphs of velocity and displacement
Hello!
New to matlab, so sorry if the question appears a bit of dumb
Im currently trying to plot the displacement of a falling pellet which acceleration follows implicit function f = @(t,a) exp((4.33254*w)/(9.81-a) – t/0.1036881 – 0.418/(0.00032*v)) – ((0.013864*v*w)/((9.81-a)*(0.418+0.00032*v)) – (0.00032*v)/(0.418+0.00032*w))
Where v and w are parameters to be adjusted.
The goal here is to first calculate the integral of the function to obtain a velocity function where the initial velocity is equal to 0 when t=0 and then obtain the integral of the velocity function to calculate the displacememt, where x=h (yet another parameter) when t=0 as well
However I struggle to find the correct sets of tools for that
Any advice is appreciated!
