It's being split into two versions: HackPoint and LeakPoint.

Sharepoint is a piece of crap. Many groups in our org turned to email to "publish" internal info instead of use Sharepoint. Now our in-boxes are full of distracting crap. We had a self-rolled intranet CMS before Sharepoint, and it was fairly decent, but instead of improving it, they threw it out and replaced it with Sharepoint, which everybody hated.

I think you're already plenty concerning just on your own!

I had become a bit annoyed with Fermi when he suddenly offered to take wagers from his fellow scientists on whether or not the bomb would ignite the atmosphere, and if so, whether it would merely destroy New Mexico or destroy the world.

Seems a dumb bet, as if it had blown up the entire state or the world, nobody would be alive to pay up. Perhaps Fermi was just trolling.

By the way, we have similar decision coming up as to whether to bring Mars samples back to Earth. There's a non-zero chance they will have microbes we have no immunity for, and all parish. I realize we already have meteorites blasted off Mars, but they were heated both on the way up and down.

Marketers are used to that shit.

be big and controversial someday. They can't be banned because they can be arranged out of country.

Are you OK? You don't seem OK.

Humans invent ever more ways to F up Earth.

David Ricardo's grave is now releasing methane.

It's time to learn about the REU!

Soviet era cubicles are made of solid steel. Small, but can handle a nuclear blast.

It's a status symbol for the rich and spoiled, investment value means shit to them.

"Penultimate" isn't a synonym for "ultimate"—it means the thing before the ultimate. Likewise we have penumbra for the blurry edge of a shadow (umbra). This results in some truly special words like "antepenult," meaning "the thing before the thing before the final thing," commonly used when discussing where the stress/accent falls in a Greek or Latin word.

"Invaluable" does indeed mean "not able to be valued" when analyzed morphologically, but the standard usage of it is indicating something is beyond value, i.e. infinitely or inestimably valuable. A value of zero is still a value, after all.

"Inflammable" however actually means "able to be inflamed," as in "put in flame" or "set on fire." The confusion comes from assimilation of the Latin preposition "in" (which we have as "in" or "on") instead of the more typical prefix "in-" (which demarcates negation.) You don't have to look very far for other words where "in" doesn't mean "not": indicate, inherit, imply, investigate, indict, involve...
