I had the same reaction to CFML. I too run my site on IIS, but I use ASP-JScript, which is similar in syntax to javascript. I haven't used CFML in a decade, I remember it being clunky and limited compared to ASP 3. If you really want to go

The problem can be seen across all Google services. They just don't make it easy to contact them when there is a problem. My favorite example is an Orkut application that I developed that I no longer wanted to support. Could I delete the ap

The author is right, if by broken he means insanely difficult. The number of things that a person has to be aware of to launch even a simple web application is simply daunting. Even after launch, there are even more pitfalls and gotchas awa

Dear Chinese Government (and other petty dictatorships): Your time is coming to an end. You can try to initimidate, and beat down dissent all you want. But in the end, freedom will prevail. But to hell with it, Neo said it better: "I know y

I think that the essence of being a coder is being willing to solve, with absolute precision and certainty, a problem that is at first glance poorly defined and/or seemingly difficult or impossible. So, with that definition, you've got to n

I've long ago given up on CNN and other cable news networks. All the cable news channels are dumbed down to the point of annoyance. The only exception is CNBC, which of course is financial news. CNBC, perhaps because of its focus on the eco

It seems clearly wrong that a funeral should be interrupted by anyone for any reason. Don't families have the right to bury their loved ones in privacy? The court should not defend the rights of one group if by doing so it strips another of

Facebook, Google, Twitter, Youtube, etc. These services thrive because they fill one or more holes that exist in the protocol space of the web. Eventually, these services should just be made into standard web protocols. What is truly distur

This is the dumbest and most dangerous idea I've heard in a while. Go ahead and vote me down, but I hope some on this site have the common sense to see how bad this idea is. This is essentially welfare, and in the US, we've been down that r
