  1. Re:Choice works both ways on Study Finds Unvaccinated Students Putting Other Students At Risk · · Score: 1

    Umm Yea. This already happens. Schools often ask for immunization records before allowing students in.

  2. Re:Submitter writes weirdly headlines on Cyber Attack Knocks Offline Saudi Aramco · · Score: 1

    A mere imposter if that is the case. Yoda would say something like "Offline cyber attack knocks Saudi Armaco hmmmmmm"

    The commercials were the best.

  4. Re:The sound of bubble sort on Sorting Algorithms — Boring Until You Add Sound · · Score: 1, Funny

    That's strange. When I listen to the sound of bubble sort all I hear is one of my college professors threatening to hunt me down and kill me in my sleep if I ever use it.

    I just hear my bong.

  5. Solar Sail Durability on NASA Set To Launch Solar NanoSail Into Space · · Score: 1

    "One of the most difficult challenges solar sails face is trying to deploy enormous but fragile spacecraft from extremely small and compact structures. We can't just attach a giant, fully spread sail to a rocket and launch it into space. The journey would shred the sail to pieces," said Dean Alhorn, NanoSail-D principal investigator and aerospace engineer at the Marshall Center."

    Space is always described as "hostile" - since solar sails are believed by some to be the only feasible option for interstellar space travel, which will require them being in space for a long time, what are the plans for improving their durability? It seems over time they would be shredded.

  6. Used improperly? on Is RFID Really That Scary? · · Score: 1

    Is RFID being used when it shouldn't? Is it really that much more difficult to swipe your card than wave it? My US passport really should not be broadcasting anything, it should be swiped since there is no need to read my information from afar. If we limit the use of RFID to tolls and package tracking etc where it makes sense to read information without any human interaction, many of the privacy issues can be prevented.

    That sounds really bad!

    Oh, doesn't seem so bad now...
