If you look at PsychoSnotty's "iDesign" pages, you'll think a junior

How do we know that Harry Krause could do any better than a junior high

These days, probably not as well. Kids these days never seem to come
outdoors and play, so they must be doing a lot of compute ring.


Our public website is a billboard... Most of the hard core "design" we
did in the past revolved around making different systems and languages
"talk" to each other...

Here's the deal.. I will stipulate that "one week and ten grand" was a
wild exaggeration for effect, but I made my point. If you understand
that most of the problem with the ACA website was that too many
different companies "shared the wealth".. (Probably half the money went
to the paperwork you need to fill out to write a website for a local
college for **** sake....) The problem was, too many companies, with
different operating proceedures and structures for building a site, it
was a case of "too many cooks spoil the broth". If one company had taken
a team and written the thing, I still submit it could be done for a
million or two.... probably less...

You just have to get by the source here, and look at the facts... The
fact is, the project was so splintered, it never stood a chance...

That aside, you are correct about Scotty and his lack of what it takes
to get something as big as the ACA website up and running flawlessly.

Not stupid beyond belief. Is why we have a lot of bloated bad software.
Write a " hello, world " program for windows and just see how big the
program is. All the class defining, windows subroutine calling. Why you
now require a gigahertz speed, terabyte drive to run a home computer and
get any throughput.

Just lease the software from a company that has already written and
debugged the software. Writing the software could maybe done for a
million, but the testing and verification would take a lot more money and
time. Was a problem with UNIX for years. Lots of the drivers were written
as college papers. They did not handle exceptions well, if at all. Those
are harder to test.

Gotta love it when the right-wing morons speculate. And the right-winger
whose tagline in usenet is an email virus-free warning? What a giggle.


Actually dip****, it isn't a tag line. It was inserted by my antivirus
program. Do you know how to make it stop, insertiting it, dip****? I'd
be happy to stop it dip****, if I knew how to do it.
