Was that the Disco Kroger, the one that used to be a disco with a tiger beneath a plexiglass floor?
The best part is that USD $634 million has already been spent, with more to come.
Perhaps the developers picked the wrong 2 of: fast, cheap, or good.
Developers don't typically get to decide that. Management makes that sort of decision. If folks are interested, a full list of ACA contractors is also available.
I doubt there's any real committee yet, at least not one comprised of people with sufficient project management and technical expertise to competently analyze this train wreck. Everyone working in an upper management role on this project should be terminated, although that's a difficult proposition when some of those personnel are likely the people needed to assist competent personnel with beginning to understand how badly this system is built. So they should be terminated immediately following resolution of most of the outstanding problems.
Everyone should keep in mind that we're still paying for this with our taxes, and the massive cost overruns on this project (USD $634 million and counting for shit that doesn't work) aren't likely to slow down any time soon.
What sort of Mac Mini are you using, an original G4 model or someting? I ran the demo just fine in Firefox 24.0 and Safari 6.0.5 on Mac OS 10.7.5 using a MacBook Pro from 2009. Here's a screenshot of Safari running jor1k.
When you say something doesn't work, you should probably include details on what you're trying to run the thing on. Mod parent down.
Those who question a popular position, especially in a mocking or condescending manner, should strive to demonstrate a perfunctory attempt at providing evidence in support of an alternate viewpoint prior to publicly adopting the contrarian position.
To put this in simpler terms, either show evidence to support your specific position, or shut the fuck up and stop representing untested and unsupported ideas to be on the same plane as widely recognized and supported views that indicate only a vanishingly small degree of gender parity among Homo sapiens males and females with respect to sexual division of labor related to hunting responsibilities.
Have a nice day.
This is where teamwork really pays off. All the GP has to do is enlist the assistance of a friend to make sure the foil is uniformly wrapped around every square centimeter of his body, triple check that it's tightly crimped to avoid any potential for air leaks, and wait a mere matter of minutes for whatever problems he may have been concerned about to vanish.
Go anywhere on the dessert for one.
I stood on a few pies to test this hypothesis, but I still had signal. Am I doing it wrong?
Nothing like driving 100miles on a dangerous road with no signs of civilization anywhere when you need 911 the most.
Why are you doing such a thing without, at minimum, an emergency kit in the trunk consisting of a spare tire and tools, basic first aid supplies, a couple of blankets, flares, a firearm, some ammunition, and a jug of water? I don't travel for any significant distance in remote country without everything on that list. Even in town, most of that is still in the vehicle.
Jay-Z, is that you?
Hey jackhole, guess what? I've personally witnessed more than one registrar virtually automatically roll over in cases like this, without so much as a glimmer of a court order or even a UDRP filing to back anything up. Do you happen to work for GoDaddy or NetSol? If your employer is the former, tell Bob Parsons I said he's still the turd he used to be, that is if you can reach him these days. If it's the latter, you're probably trolling on their behalf, so take a 15 and try to think about what you're doing with your life.
You're 100% right. I'm presently driving a Hyundai Sonata (fantastic car, btw), and am considering either a Hyundai Genesis sedan or a Tesla Model S for my next car. The Genesis is a very nice car, but I'm strongly leaning toward the Tesla.
To be fair, Ruby as a language isn't the problem. However, Ruby on Rails and the atrocities of frameworks that are its spawn are frequently major problems.
You must have missed the follow up response I posted right after my initial reply.
