Re: CFAkismet - anyone used it - how good is it?
we use it on our corporate blog (blog.d-p.com) and a few of our client sites as well. So far it's awesome. it catches probably about 95% of the spam on our corporate blog (but we don't have that high a traffic) and fairs just as well on our client sites. With a letter extra coding on the interface side you can make it easy to delete those comments which are reported as spam as well as deal with reporting misses and ham. jonese On 2/17/07, Jacob Munson [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I looked at CFAkismet and it seems pretty cool. I can't say enough good about Akismet, it's just plain awesome. Personally, I use my own project called CFFormProtect (http://cfformprotect.riaforge.org), which also has Akismet integration. The difference my project offers is that it does a few other tests as well, to validate the message before it is posted. Things like checking of the user moved their mouse, if they typed on their keyboard, and a couple of others. I have had a minor amount of spam comments get captured by my other tests, where Akismet didn't flag it as spam. But those are few and far between. Anyway, above all, check out CFAkismet, CFFormProtect, or write your own Akismet interface (it's not very hard). The big draw for me with all of these options is that your users don't have to do anything additional to 'prove' they're human when they submit your forms. With things like Akismet and CFFormProtect, the burden of proof is placed on the spammer, to demonstrate that they aren't a spam bot. And they usually aren't able to do that. This also removes the problems that CAPTCHA presents for accessibility. On 2/16/07, Mike Kear [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Spam bots are starting to annoy me.

I use Akismet through WordPress (what I use for my blog), and it's awesome. I've yet to see a legit comment marked as spam, and it misses probably 5 in 1000 spams. Since it's a hosted service, I'd wager that the interface (CF vs PHP vs Java, etc) wouldn't have any effect on performance.

RE: Taking the Vista Plunge
I am not bashing here, but I had a co-worker who needed to edit an excel workbook and let me send it back to Corporate while we were at a convention. She had just gotten her laptop before our trip with Vista and Office 2007. After using help, etc. and 20 minutes I will never get back, trying to save it as an Office 2003 compat file I put her on my xp laptop and was done in a minute or two. After reading about Vista it seems like forever, this seems like when we went from dos to windows. If you put it on an existing machine it will probably crawl I have read. And it looks at first glance they have totally changed the look/feel so a lot of people who aren't techies will be basically starting over, and buying new hardware as well too. Then there's our 3d party software we are just realising to our dealers nationwide that gets installed on laptops for in home sales. They just informed me it will not run on Vista yet..That's the reason we were at the dealer convention to launch their new software. They are blaming it on 3d party tools they license to write their .net software package. I have already had 20 calls from dealers stating Dell does not sell anything but Vista. Oh well I gues it could be worse. I think MS will either make a major killing here or a lot more Macs and Linux boxes will come into Corporate America.

Re: Taking the Vista Plunge
say what you will but thats the way it is on vista. granted, maybe there is a way around that but if I wanted to try and polish a turn, i'd just rub Will's balding head. The funny thing is I seam to recall a lot of windows ppl on here making fun of macs when it was a bit of a pita to install cfm on the new intels, i must admit this is now rather amusing watching the black kettle. I can't wait for the complaining to start at Adobe cause the cfmx 7 doesnt easy install on vista and how dare Adobe let that happen, after all they have had like 200 years to get ready for vista Lowest Common Denominator rears its ugly head.

cache one big query or many smaller ones
What makes best sense in a shopping cart system with about 1500 products (and all the usual price, new, sale, photo, description, dateadded, etc, columns), to do one big query of all of them together and keep it cached and then for each category and individual pages, do a query of query against it, or just do and cache each smaller query, no big one?

I have to start using that notation. I use evaluate() entirely too much, and I assume this notation is faster?

RE: Taking the Vista Plunge
I don't know about Linux, but macs are starting to look better and better. You can also run parallels on it, and the latest beta has a feature called coherence that allows you to run windows apps in their own windows as part of the mac... no need to switch back and forth from the windows VM.

Re: Taking the Vista Plunge
wow Russ, never thought I'd hear you say something like that. parallels is pretty amazing at this point but what you'll find is that you don't open it very much and when you do its fairly transparent and when you minimize it to dock it doesnt take up much resources, so if you need to leave it open you can. The line between windows and mac is really starting to blur... its kinda ironic that windows is the dominant os but they are really trying to imitate a mac now. oh well, at least the icons are purdier now ;) I don't know about Linux, but macs are starting to look better and better.

Re: Posting Bad Employment or Potential Employment Experiences
The domain www.terribleplacestowork.com seems to be available. I guess I'm fairly lucky in that I've never worked at a place that was COMPLETELY terrible, but I have had my share of less-then-ideal bosses. I guess it's up to the individual to decide whether a place is really that bad; the boss that I saw as flighty and capricious might be seen by someone else as the cat's whiskers. I guess it comes down to this...networking is key, and it will help you find the good employers and avoid the bad ones.
