I wouldn't go as far as to call them students, John. Tuition payers is about as far as I'd go.

go home. You sound like you're not able do contribute anything productive today.
Better to take the day off than to do something you won't recognize as your work tomorrow.

I've been watching a lot of quadcopter stuff lately, and been bitten by the bug to get one. My mate from work built his own one from scratch (here his one being tested[^];), but he has way to much time on his hands and probably alot more skilled than me, so looking at buying one of the kits instead.
Probably one of the Xaircraft kits; http://www.quadcopters.co.uk/?PageID=XAircraft_Quad_Kits&subCat=1[^]

The damned thing flies, so why does he keep picking it up to place it back in frame.

The large amount of netting surrounding the demo indicates to me that they do not have total faith in the in the control system.

I don't need to. Just look at Q/A.
One guy was responding to answers in his original question by posting new questions. Those are gone now, but the guy was truly an open-mouth breather.
Another guy posted a question yesterday, and then created a new user ID and posted the same question again today.

Maybe he figured that his old userID had gotten a bad rep and starting fresh would help?
Just because the code works, it doesn't mean that it is good code.

What I really don't understand is why they don't at least TRY to google for a solution before posting a question. I bet 9 out of 10 questions could be answered with a little google time. It's amazing.

It's easier to get the codez sent directly to their email address - then they don't have to think at all!

For the ones that could be answered with a google search, that's what I give them - "If you google...". For the ones that are actual coding ones, I put in a lot more effort.

Reason would be poor google skills. you don't look at google with an exact problem statement in mind. you google with an open mind and derive your answers.
There must be classes on how to google!

If they can't use a search engine, they certainly shouldn't be programming.

Yeah, it's called getting an EDUCATION! I find it absolutely amazing that there are people asking questions, who say they have a degree, that don't have a single clue on how to do research. How did these people get a degree without that!?
Oh, that's right, send in 6 box tops from their Fruity Pebbles!

due to the downturn in the economy, it only takes 4 boxtops now, and if you are careful on how you cut them out and present them, you get credit for a free one hence only needing three.
Programming is a race between programmers trying to build bigger and better idiot proof programs, and the universe trying to build bigger and better idiots, so far... the universe is winning.
