  7. Re:A thought or two... on Solar Powered Helios Plane Destroyed in Test Flight · · Score: 1

    It's not friction, the air is rapidly compressed in from of the shuttle and then ignites.

  8. My generation on Ageism in IT? · · Score: 1

    As a proud member of the youngins (19 here) I can say that the companys are screwing themselves up the you know what by hiring younger people. experience counts, even moreso in the programming fields, since most people don't make the same mistake more than, say, five times, the longer you;ve been coding the less time you'll take to code something because you'll have less errors. Just like sports the more you practicve the better you get.

  14. Re:Probably Good and Bad on Pinnacle, Online Grades, Skipping School and More · · Score: 0

    Heres a situation I've run across, since my school uses similer apps. English paper, rather long at that is due thursday, but because the teacher doesn't grade 100ish 5-7 page papers in one night the software enters zero's or not completes in for the grade that goes on the net, next thing a b goes to a d and your parents are pissed at you all weekend.

    Not inputing grades instantly causes huge problems as our system emails the parents every week with missing assignments, all of the sudden I'm missing 6 or 7 assignments I did and turned in. Its gotten to the point where no one pays attention to the system.
