Please help me understand why a nation with a fledgling economy that is trillions of dollars in debt spend billions of dollars on something that was done 50 years ago?

Silence if I won't get interrupted. Otherwise, I have mix of 80s, 90s and techno. I also like sound tracks to some techie/pseudo techie movies (ie:social network,pirates of SV etc)

Very cool. Interesting to see the schematics and design. However, you can tell the dash was definitely designed by engineers. Lot of buttons, switches and knobs for a short drive on a glorified electric golf cart. Nice find!

Who cares? US is financially fledgling and we're pumping over $20B/year into this behemoth money pit called NASA to tell us there is another Earth we'll never get to. We can barely get to Mars! Let's focus on problems here!

While this article is interesting, it should make clear that basic necessities for life MUST be maintained. Everybody needs food and water to live by ordinary means, all medical technology aside. However, life support is not required and is

Immediately, this story looks like link bait. Even the title misses the point of what he's trying to say, true or not. Even more entertaining is all of the discussions of those who have 'real' degrees and who are 'not like this man'. They b

Consider using a payment gateway like Authorize.Net. Their ACH capability is pretty straight forward and works well. http://www.authorize.net/solutions/merchantsolutions/merchan...

I used Elance and it worked pretty well. Be careful though. I posted project specs and had about 15 bidders. I found out once development was done, one of the bidders who didn't get the job liked the idea so much he wrote his own version, b

If 40 is when you get old, seems like we're getting 'old' sooner and retire later. If that's the case, you're 'old' over 50% of the time you're in the workforce. :p

I LOVE this podcast. I think Rob and Scott do a great job of discussing areas of developers lives that are not generally talked about in a podcast. We don't always want to geek out and talk bits and bytes. TDL is a nice mix with some snappy

Very nice! Really easy to visualize the data and find what you're looking for without combing through hundreds of search results. Couple of thoughts: The colors are a bit confusing. I understand the year, but a legend might help. Would be c

Interesting idea. There are some guys in our diocese that run a company called Solutio. More web based stuff but really nice. We use ParishSoft as a church management system for our church. Even thought it's MSAccess based, it's better than

Why again do we want to build a base on a big rock? And why do we fund NASA for $20 billion/year? Especially in a struggling economy? Why doesn't some other country step up to do this if it's so important? It seems the US spends money on ev
