Re: Scarily obnoxious: Wall Street CEOs Don't Make Jack Compared To Healthcare CEOs

How about a decade+ of drastically rising premiums accompanied by declining service value and results? There's more than one way to rape the public.

I don't recall the health care industry getting freebie bailout cash rewarding their incompetency. Who is saying the healthcare CEOs aren't running profitable operations?

Who are you and what have you done with Andy?

Although I think this sort of enlightenment is supposed to be about smelling roses, this works too.

Now you know why I stopped purchasing any Adobe products in 1992. Given your rather pedestrian example, it demonstrates that absolutely nothing has changed since then when it comes to Adobe's awful service infrastructure.

God bless them, but why would people pay money for a what amounts to a fancy two frame hosting with the master frame a fancy list of hyperlinks?

But, how is this affecting Robert Scoble? ;)

Seriously, whenever Twitter institutes one-size-fits-all solutions to problems they see they are demonstrating blindness to their greatest strength: Twitter is open and flexible enough for users to use it in radically different ways.

It wouldn't take more than average design and development effort to implement limitations that overwhelmingly affect only the spammies and kooks. They should aim higher in their constraints.

In May of 2008 I declared Twitter a "fad" and that I wouldn't use it. I was dead wrong on both accounts.

To continue mattering past 2010 Twitter will have to morph into something different, but it's essential nature are probably here to stay.

Thankfully it is effortless to avoid anyone "doing business" on Twitter.

Appreciate it. I knew writing that would be a little close to home for some folks, but if all we do is talk about the positive things, we're only covering part of the story.

Fundamentally the echo-chamber needs incessant pumping. It is its nature.

The Downward Spiral was actually one of the most insightful and brilliant "economy" pieces I've read. It buys you a lot of leash.

Michael, thanks first for the compliment and your checking out the recent posts. This is partially meant as satire. It's supposed to be silly. Scoble and I get along just fine, so I don't think I need to pump him up any more. Keep me honest though.

I've come back to reading you after a long hiatus, and your recent posts have been great. But after reading this I remember why I stopped subscribing originally:

This post is a perfect example of a echo-chamber butt-kissing.

I'm sure the Global Warming Crowd will have something to say about this abomination.

Facebook is hella fun. It's the first big thing on the web that I don't have to teach anyone I know that is technologically behind the curve how to use.

You totally caved! As far as using "religious" goes, instead of fighting you, I used the time-honored technique of mocking you. Happy New Year. Bring it with Scotch, my friend.

Herding schoolgirls back into burning buildings as they try to escape takes up most of their time.

I looked at DNN a few times ... could have sworn it was C# too?

Re: Busy busy busy! Server upgrade ... Oxite ...

crisatunity — Wed, 10 Dec 2008 19:06:04 -0000

I'm thinking it will be mostly C#. One of the reasons I never became enamoured of DotNetNuke (Oxite's closest cousin) because it was VB.NET.

That's pretty much my plan too, keep me posted.

I just saw this tweet and sighed... http://twitter.com/PaulNielsen/statuses/1043828532

That is like saying, "good .NET developers only work with structures. References are for suckers."

Simply the dumbest shit I've read in a long time.

I'm going to do an Oxite install in my home office sandbox over the holidays. If it checks out - that's what I'll use for crisatunity.com

Unlinke the NaNo, I have a plan with this venture. Plus, I have help in making it, so I'm not alone. The best part is I know my audience. I don't believe I'll even worry about trying to do iit daily.
