  1. Re:Lessons Learned?? on Ma.gnolia User Data Is Gone For Good · · Score: 1

    No.

    The first thing you learn when starting a new venture is that there are a billion things that need to be done.

    It's not good to forget about backups, but if you expend all of your effort on perfect backups then you achieve nothing elsewhere.

    In a new venture, you take risks, in this case maybe the wrong risks. But without risk there is no progress. You just can't be 100% on everything, only hope to be 99% on your core competence.

    Stop reading the textbooks and try starting a business.

    Well done guys, but sorry you got caught.

  3. french military victories on Nuclear Subs 'Collide In Ocean' · · Score: 1
    Today, France demonstrated European naval superiority. Triomphant's advanced SONAR capability detected a British stealth SSBN in the Atlantic Ocean, trumping the British for the first time since, erm, 1066. French SONAR was 100% accurate in this case, although scientists are thinking hard about improving the range. From zero.
