I remember going to a talk around 2003 where the upper limit of particle smashers was discussed by radius and compared to theoretical energy values for various particles. It's a known problem - and there have been (expensive) suggestions put forth for years.

That's a pretty good point I think

Are people going to stop dying unexpectedly from {insert reason that doesn't involve a car}? Is theft or destruction of personal property going to end? No...This is a big product category for the insurance industry, yes, but it's still a gigantic industry.

What do you think is the best way to automate managing linux/unix boxes? i.e. say you've got hundreds of them and need to control and monitor them all easily.

The way they're moving together and neither is spinning on its axis relative to the other, I think

watch the feed. What they've discovered so far has already challenged and thrown out many hypotheses about planet formation/evolution. It may look like a rock to the untrained eye - but what humanity knows about planetary physics has already changed because of this probe. It's impossible to know where and how this will change our theories and even technology down the road.

In the feed NASA stated they both locked up early on and ruled out tidal forces as being a factor.

When you put it like that, it sounds like the person might have outside pressures impacting his professional affairs.

I immediately crushed hard on Lameese Akacem

What're these monuments?

Maybe they write up crazy job descriptions that almost no one can fill out of a false estimation of what they need?

Too true. There are much larger misses to be pointed out. Anyone misses opportunities because we're finite human beings.

As for me, I wish they would have thought out iTunes better. It's a clunky beast and moving the iTunes library around is annoying.

Honestly I can't think of this as being anything but big. Companies live and die by outlook email still (enough of them anyway). So many of those executives don't even need a machine past email really...

It's missing because it's about 90s scifi.

What's the problem? Or is it the ati driver still...
