  1. Re:Tight Orbit on Planet Discovered Using Telephoto Camera Lenses · · Score: 1

    I was just going to post pretty much the same thing. TFA doesnt mention quite how "tight" the orbit is. I would love to know how a planet that large could be orbiting tight & fast. Surely the stars proximity would cause a gas giant that close to be pretty unstable.

  2. Re:Question on MS Word Zero-Day Exploit Found · · Score: 5, Informative

    Zero Day means that the vulnerability was previously unknown. Hence there are no days between dicovery of the vuln and dicovery of the exploit in the wild.

  3. Re:kill the pig! kill the pig! kill the pig! on New Congressional Bill Makes DMCA Look Tame · · Score: 4, Informative

    Small point. While there is much to despise Thatcher for, this isnt one. VAT was introduced in the UK in 1973 as a replacement for sales tax. At that time Thatcher was education secretary. She didnt become PM till 79.
