So, I did a complete upgrade of my mythTV system this past month and lost my script to thumbnail home videos and videos that don't have any info in the imbd database (hmmm..what could those be). I must have worked on the Perl version for a couple of hours before giving up and writing this

to me it is. There's so many things I do in ruby nowadays that aren't related to web dev. I use it for system admin quite a bit. I write scripts for my MythTV system in it. When I deploy sites, ruby's small enough where I can deploy to a 256mb VM so I'm able to use a new server for every app

Good luck with that. I think it is becoming increasingly difficult to find experienced CF devs. It seems like, these days, you pretty much need to either open up to telecommuting (not always possible on a contract that requires clearance, I know) or find a good dev who you can train. I'd consider

Not that group. I got out of DHS helping all their departments align and start programming the same way so they could share code and build 1 interface instead of 13! Good luck with it. Many of the ones I brought in didn't last but a few months. -Original Message- From: Scott Stewart
