  1. Aiding and abetting on 3,800 Vulnerabilities Detected In FAA's Web Apps · · Score: 1

    Newsworthy? Yes. Should it be reportable? No. One of the biggest problems in reporting stories like this is the fact that the information is now OUT THERE. FFS, it's pretty dumb to put this information in the public press. "Hey! Terrorists! You want to know where our vulnerabilities are!? We've just finished the report, so here you go!" I don't believe in censoring press... but doesn't common sense kick in at some point? Fix the vulnerabilities FIRST!!!

  2. Manual cars on 6-Year-Old Says Grand Theft Auto Taught Him To Drive · · Score: 1

    To be fair, this sort of thing highlights a positive aspect of manual-shift cars. There's no way a child could get in and start driving. You need practise to get it down and not stall the car. Plus, as convenient as cruise control is, if you remove it and make all cars automatic, I would imagine that people spend more time thinking about driving properly than just zoning out behind the wheel...

  3. Re:checks and balances on Scientists Surprised to Find Earth's Biosphere Booming · · Score: 1

    Yeah, I was going to mention the (surely obligatory) reference to Daisyworld http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daisyworld [Wikipedia]

  4. You already should on Scientists Find New Painkiller From Saliva · · Score: 1

    It has been discussed for some time that tolerance to pain is increased by having an orgasm. Therefore, any migraine or headache complaints by your wife actually should be a reason to get jiggy.
