Engineers are working on the theory (among others) that the failure may have been triggered by new solar panels installed earlier in Atlantis's mission.
You'd better listen to Scotty when he says, "I canna give her any more power cap'n."
Gyroscopes resist changes in angular momentum, not linear momentum. So it only has increased rotational intertia. If you were measuring the box's mass by trying to spin it rather than push it, then yes, it would appear more massive. But if you just pushed it in a straight line, then it would behave the same as if your gyroscopes were still.
On your second question, electrons and subatomic particles don't really spin, they have orbitals. Electron orbitals are the probability distribution of an electron in a atom or molecule. Take a look: http://www.orbitals.com/orb/ So it's not really like a gyroscope. But that is an interesting question, i.e. Do electron orbits effect the angular momentum of atoms? How would you measure that experimentally? Does Newtonian Physics operate on that level?
We should stop using corn to make biofuel and instead use Miscanthus.
Miscanthus is a genus of about 15 species of perennial grasses. Miscanthus giganteus has been trialed as a biofuel in Europe since the early 1980s. It can grow to heights of more than 3.5m in one growth season. Its dry weight annual yield can reach 25t/ha (10t/acre). The rapid growth, low mineral content and high biomass yield of Miscanthus make it a favorite choice as a biofuel. After harvest, it can be burned to produce heat and power turbines. The resulting CO2 emissions are equal to the amount of CO2 that the plant used up from the atmosphere during its growing phase, and thus the process is greenhouse gas-neutral.
To make it worse, the HR people saying this have no idea about anything technical, they don't understand anything that we do so
Instead of bitching, why not offer to sit on interview panels? That would be taking initiative and you could weed out people that don't have the skills (or even just rub you the wrong way). Instead of overstretching yourself to compensate for the dumb new hire, let them fail and make them look bad. HR is grateful that I sit on interview panels and I appreciate that they understand the level of knowledge required to analyze the technical merits of a candidate. And I get to pick who I work with!
For an embedded project I bought a bunch of memory cards off ebay. It appeared they had been erased but I was curious what I would find. I found the excellent software photorec, and found various pictures. On one card I found someone's vacation photos, including one of him naked. No naked pictures of his wife, however.
That's what makes it more fun! BSE will drive the price lower. On a BSE-related news announcement you wait for the price to drop, then you buy Buy BUY! Eventually the price will creep back up. Then you walk to your favorite store, be it GAP, Starfucks, whatever. Drop that honkin slab of meat on their counter and barter away.:)
iTunes on Windows installs two services, called ipodservice.exe and iTunesHelper.exe. On a slow machine or a machine with hardware problems these could definitly cause it to be a slow booter.
They should come up with a way for doctors to perscribe placebos but the patient not really know it. Kind of too bad when the pharmacy is separate from the doctor's office. It didn't use to be that way.
Ah but with a company offering a service, they often talk about how many nines they can offer. Five nines is a common target. Here, let me help. http://www.google.com/search?q=99.999
Well M$ would be the most likely, because they have the most revenue, cash on hand, and an entrenched monopoly. But how long that will actually last, I have no clue.

If you can build it, you can fix it.
Hey, if you've got the time and the know how, why not do it? This could be done in a few weekends at most.
So we should just throw these fairly good panels away? This guy is putting those factory cast offs to good use. He should be praised!
Who said they weren't brand new? It looks like factory rejects to me.

Instead of emailed documents for Google Docs, enable WebDAV. Apple's dot mac service does this. Apple calls it iDisk. Microsoft calls it web folders.
At some point, the combinatorily explosion even might give the code sentinence...
Well, Windows certainly has a mind of it's own at times, especially when infected with malware! Not quite sentient though... heh
Maybe they are scalpels with friken lasers attached to their heads. Or hot scalpels, cauterizing as they cut.
On Mars there is weather and dust storms. This wears down sharp dust, so that problem would not be found on Mars. But yeah, it would get everywhere!

How about opressive acts of Mother Nature? :D

It's called uptime dumbass. 100% uptime is up all of the time. 99.997% is just a little less than that. uptime is the unit.
Apparently this problem has been solved (already thought about?). IPv4 address space is a part of IPv6. 2002::/16

Really, to get some of the good features of IPv6 you have to move ahead.
take a look at what HP/Compaq has to offer. We have a few arrays from them, both SATA and SCSI. Not all Fiber channel though.
you mean emergency and resulting power outage (much more devastating).
