I wonder what the fastest possible chemically-propelled-rocket probe is? If the probe was made small and compact to do little more than take photos and spectrographic analysis, how fast could the bugger be made to travel using existing rocket tech?
If it records the pass-by data and sends it back later at a slower pace, somewhat like New Horizons, then it doesn't need that big of an antenna.
Importing cheap labor is not "technology". Plus, many countries that send visa workers have protectionist rules at home for our product and services. They want the benefits but not the downsides. It's one of the reasons why we have a fat trade deficit and why the rich get richer but the middle gets screwed.
Tools often assume or are built around certain patterns or ways of doing things. If you force it outside of those ways, odd things happen. It just may be that Qt more closely fit your original vision than Lazarus.
I remember working with Oracle Forms. If you do things according to its assumed look-and-feel, things go smooth. However, when we tried to force it to act like a more modern desktop GUI, it balked and the work-arounds triggered oddities.
Not necessarily. Consider a flick about Jar Jar vs. Wesley Crusher. If they both die in glorious shame at the end, it could be the greatest geek hit ever.
Amen! I live in a well-populated city, and we still have sh8t choice and sh8t customer service.

How about a "language" that makes it easy to generate a language how I personally want it so that I'm not stuck with somebody else's goofy preferences:

Congratulations, another civilization just won the Intergalactic Darwin Award.

That's a lot of nukes.

You mean there is something up Uranus?
They learned well from their USA capitalist teachers.
Perhaps it did hit the ground fairly hard, which caused it to unravel in a way that somewhat resembles the intended landing configuration.
It's a pretty clever design, in terms of being compact, if everything had clicked into place.
It would have been the first direct life-detection experiment since the Viking probes of the 1970's.
It's a bummer how they got all the way to 3rd base when things went kafooey.
That command is "BEETHOVEN"

correction: should be "single competitor".

Hmm, I wonder if the invention of cussing helped tool-making by making errors more memorable.
