truly crazy stuff from the US govt

2011-03-03 Thread Robert Munn
Apparently the US, and many other nations, have purchased mobile x-ray vans that use the same back-scatter technology that the airport scanners use. TSA says they are not deployed in public, but really, do we have any reason to trust these people now? So glad I live on a private road.

I think it is because most CF developers have actual jobs and home lives, so don't have as much time to develop cool open source software. Though given the size of the dev community and its maturity, I'd say we do pretty well. CF has so much more cool community stuff available than .Net, it's

There are a few really nice FOS products for CF, for instance there's Mura - its a really good CMS. And what's quite nice about it is that it has a plug-in architecture so if you don't see something you need, its not difficult to write it. On Thu, Apr 15, 2010 at 6:49 PM, Vivec

In a way you only have yourself to blame. People do not want to spend the extra money. Most companies are only following the dictates of their customers. That said, what would you rather spend, $50 for a new tire each year or $300 for a tire that lasts 8 years. Most people would see $50 as being
