  1. Cool Piece Of hardware on Voyager 1 Fires Up Thrusters After 37 Years (nasa.gov) · · Score: 1

    I like this thing is still working at nearly 40 years old and 20 light hours away, when my computer and phone update weekly, and I doubt my hardware would be supported in 30 years even if it still worked.

  2. Generally bad idea on Should Teachers Get $100 For Steering Kids To Google's 'Hour of Code' Lesson? · · Score: 1
