Unfortunately Japan seems to easily forget about Fukushima and its effects, side effects and future effects. The new Japanese government is in favor of a drastic change regarding power plants future: from an all-stopped-and-deep-check (May 6, 2012) to a lets-go-restart-asap-what-you-can policy. They probably estimate the probability of another such F-event very low (F as in Fukushima, but you can put what you want here). This is one of the globalization problem: economical globalization trend, without global consensus on fundamental issues.

So if you don't die from take-off, the very very long trip, the landing, ... radiations will get you.. Definitely a suicidal mission!

...then they undertook a huge involvement into religion...

That's a relief. To shutdown, users had to " Mouse to Top right > Settings > Shutdown ". Soon they'll be back to "click Start" to "Shutdown" - and whatever you think of that, that's even more intuitive and consistent that the "new" metro style...

And if it is big enough, we'll have to deal with the remaining debris of size asteroid/x, and if it is even bigger, we'll have to deal with each y debris-of-debris from the x debris pieces etc ... well, a good way to get rid of all nuclear warheads we currently have on Earth..

When it comes to health, someone needs more than trust.

Oh, here I come in the thread for aged started-on-TI people. Started on a TI-57. That was fun. Amazing what we could do with 50 steps of machine-language like code...

Exactly, and Magic Lantern has been doing that amazing work since the 5D II. Tried it on my 5D2, it's a really good piece of open source software.

Yet another win-win (for her) situation: a guy hacks and is prosecuted. a not-that-famous-but-hot-singer gets a lot of publicity. all the geeks arounds search google for that singer.

Most of people do not really weight the consequences of taking and carrying such pictures in their phone/laptop/google glasses/... Everybody is used to the consumption era where information circulates quickly and broadly... and what is not published (eg on FB) is kept private. Unfortunately, it is likely that many people do not have the necessary background to protect themselves / act geekfully and a lot of private data is stolen from various places. It only makes the news when the ungeek person is famous...

Not only. If you take the math.stackexchange.com you see that they put an extra effort to have mathematical equations displayed properly on the site.

better... and compatible! Because are usually writing docs to be shared with other people. I doubt in 30 days he was able to make that possible, especially when you look at openoffice and how much it took them to make something really useable.

No, he says he used Netbeans to justify the 30 days. Otherwise the whole development process would have taken only 15.

Good. As always in our Universe, things tend to converge to a certain equilibrium. There are more and more satellites in the upper sky, thus the probability of a collision increases exponentially. Collision => less satellites.
