Comment If we do noting - that is exactly what will happen (Score 1) 473

By Anders logic, he shouldn't have gone to the moon. Why was he even in the program, much less a mission if he holds the beliefs he states? Humans tend to explore, they tend to solve difficult problems (some better than others). No one says it will be easy, no one says it will be safe. At one time going to California wasn't safe... Now we can do it in hours. As for Nye - we won't do anything we don't dream and try. He cannot know that we won't live on Mars - no more than people could have known about a million inventions. We may have to create an artificial magnetic core or similar to maintain an atmosphere - still it is possible. Just because we don't have a grasp of how at this time is frankly just a stumbling block to be overcome.

Comment AVERAGE security (Score 2) 85

I am not defending MS here - but who wants to be compared to industry _averages_ when it comes to security. The people adjusting the ranking because it does not compare well to an average are what I like to call stuupid (it is not a typo). You should want perfect security - to hell with averages.
