Took up an insane & weird amount of energy and drained my battery

This app took up a crazy amount of energy from my computer. Either it has a bug or it’s sus. It took like 4000 energy impact, while my google chrome (with a ton of tabs open) was less than 200. Idk, I’d avoid.

Passed my midterm

got this a week before the midterm it was looking rough. not only was this kinda fun but it was actually helpful. The only thing I didn’t like is my prof uses “aspartate” and “glutamate” while the app uses aspartic acid and glutamic acid.
