Who said that there weren't any. Of course they want asp.net with it too.

you don't "register" subdomains, you just make sure that they are in DNS. You setup your load balancer with the names of all of your hosts and it will direct traffic to the appropriate one.

This is true. I aced the coding portion, but after 6 months, I was definitely not a good fit in the culture of the last company I worked for.

If anything, his quantity of posting in the last 30 days has slowed from the .9x a day he used to post. Really though, the postings from last June pale in comparison to the poor posts from the past 60 days which include thinly veiled shills

I said this very thing a few weeks ago. CodingHorror is no longer a daily look for me. More like weekly or monthly. If you look back, you'll see the quality of posts went down soon after Jeff began advertising on his blog. I think that th

I worked for a startup that used Administaff. Administaff basically sucks. They are expensive from a company perspective. The benefits (in Texas at least) are fairly poor and expensive. Also, with noone on staff responsible for HR functio

Are you a mac, linux or windows user? What's your budget? A budget of < $1200 basically rules out any recent mac laptop.

yet another codinghorror post that reaffirms to me that it has jumped the shark. Go back and look at posts from a year ago and they were significantly better than the posts in the last 6 months or so. Interestingly enough, they started t

Wow. I know a lot of people that either work for or used to work for EDS (including my dad who's been there forever). Be interesting to see how this plays out!

you're just posting a form to the server. You can pretend to be IE in code and send the same HTTP traffic that the browser would send (use fiddler to watch the traffic and mimic it).

0% for interns. You wouldn't give ownership to some offshore worker or a contractor. Treat them as such. I've done a couple coding internships (gosh, it was 10 years ago this year!) and they paid me $10/hr. I shudder to think about the c

but the fact that someone can go from 0 to 1800 "friends" in a week (assuming they are a noone like me) has to imply the lack of value of an account with that many friends (and IMNSHO the "service" itself).

but how is having an expensive workforce keeping small shops in business? I mean the really small shops like mom and pop shops can do it, but the 10-20 employee businesses must be running much tighter than they could here.

The first thing I'd try is to reverse engineer the model from the database (this is something that django can do). As long as your database design is somewhat decent you'll likely be ok. if not... well you might want to build a new model a
