OK, this is more my fault than Kevin's.

To start, "is" changed to "are" and "select all that apply" added. I should have done that.

The engine is built to show...

Scott,

Thanks for the editorial and it's provoked an interesting debate.

I wasn't sure what people would say, and I don't completely disagree with Scott's arguments, but I don't think they're great....

"Enjoy driving", OK to be fair it's not enjoyable. It's like a bus around here moving kids, but it's not really any different than a lot of cars. The 911,...

Closing the thread on this one. I don't see anyone being rude except the OP and no racism.

for deadlocks, setup a trace specifically...

I think most of the dot com bust was poorly built companies, ideas, and business plans. It was a lot of "if we build it, they will come".

Outsourcing seemed to...

In the winters in Denver, we have 10-15% ethanol at all pumps. Supposed to reduce smog, which is a problem here as well.

I like the idea of telecommuting more and...

It's definitely a headache, but mount points, mapping drives back to specific folders helps.

Getting access to the server isn't necessary. There should be a group that you setup, or the...
