ObamaCare Website, by far the worst IT project of this millenia, let alone 2013.
Now, the above is my opinion and not that of any other person/entity.
And, you betcher arse NIO HALL I'm damned proud of that, too.

Haven't you been a part of the run away train wreck? With soo much ambition, and soo many people involved it would be a surprise if it would turn otherwise.

Amazon handles a huge amount of requests, especially in this month. Their user-base is a bit larger for the moment. We know it can be done, because it has been done.
Any excuse is merely that; a lame excuse.

I voted to void the 232 years-long tradition of your ability to filibuster.
That, and I've been a CP Member 5,616,000 seconds longer than you.
Hence, I win.
WOW!, These ObamaTactics really work! Too scary!!

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.-John Q. Adams You must accept one of two basic premises: Either we are alone in the universe, or we are not alone in the universe. And either way, the implications are staggering.-Wernher von Braun Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.-Albert Einstein

Think you've heard it all? On Fox Business yesterday, an analyst predicted that Apple and Microsoft will be forced to merge in the next five to ten years. Is he right or living in a fantasy world? The fanboi explosion will be heard for miles

I think that analyst has been staring at those giant iPads [^] in the newsroom for too long.

If he's right, he can point back to this news item in triumph. If he's wrong, no one will remember.
Maybe someone should should put it in his calendar, or in a time capsule.

A great development workflow will make your good developers great, and your great developers exceptional. A bad workflow will take your best engineers productivity down to a junior level and make wish he worked elsewhere. Break the build and find out fast

another way to put it, before we have continuous integration, all code produced is sh*t.

After previous revelations about Windows "Threshold," a release we might think of as Windows 8.2, some more information has emerged about Microsoft's plans for the future. And if you were worried that Windows 8.1 didn't go far enough in appeasing desktop users on traditional PCs, I think I have some good news for you. Third time might be the charm for Windows 8

A Start Menu? Wow, what a concept!
Now, was that so hard Microsoft?

Microsoft is always best on their third release

The only problem here is it may dissuade people from buying current generation products.
I was considering upgrading to a Nokia 1020, but if they're going to drop Windows Phone 8 that will become a dead duck (like my current Nokia - a Win Phone 7).
They need to be more open about the support lifecycle of phone O/S. The WP7 to WP8 one made a lot of devices obsolete.

Just what we need. Private proprietary code going over the internet.
No Thx.
Local entire project conversion is preferred hands-down; nothin' else.
