    stackoverflow - who has the time?

    For me, i've found taking little breaks in the day to step away from my current project but not loose focus on programming. When I need to step away to clear my head about a problem i'll browse stackoverflow for an easy answer or look for one that I too am curious on. This helps keep the...

    was my data secure during the remote session?

    i think the long pause is really fishy? maybe he WAS downloading the data and didnt want you to know and was using "testing on my end" as a distraction. i'd destroy the hard drives as he may have put a trojan virus there to get more data. :)

    Building Interest in DBA

    man there is alot of bitterness to certifications and discrediting them. In most cases a certification gets you spotted on some HR persons radar. "ooo hey look this guy has experience AND a certification *giddy face*" and can get you a phone call for an initial interview. Corporate...

    Building Interest in DBA

    the great thing about tests is that it shows you what the certification companies thinks is necessary to be a well rounded individual in a specific field. The real world is another story. I'd highly recommend getting involved in some communities and start looking at building yourself a pet...

    keep in mind there is a BIG difference between a consultant and a contractor. Contractor rates of $110/hr is pricey, but a consultant at $110/hr is cheap.

    E-mail Ehtics

    I guess it depends on the type of email marketing they are doing. IMO theres nothing wrong with sending legitimate email marketing. Obviously simple common sense will tell you that you will get a far better response from "warm" leads, i.e... someone who opt's in or may be expecting the...

    Copyright - protecting myself

    the real question here should be what is ethical. The client paid you to design something for him. If you want to strongarm the customer into using only your service and only your hosting thats up to you but IMHO its not right. They paid you for your time and development. It's up to you to...

    How do you do your DAL?

    I use the enterprise library exclusively with stored procedures. I also create data access classes that are called from the object itself to encaspulate the actual data lookup. By data look up I mean everything from database access to file reading to web services.

    coldfusion spawn java thread?

    coldfusion spawn java thread?

    thats a good point, I would imaing the GC would do cleanup. Again, depending on your use, if you are doing basic text editing and database stuff you can easilt do that in coldfusion as well.

    coldfusion spawn java thread?

    first question - correct. call a java method, that calls something else and asyncrously returns a response to coldfusion. second question, I'm not sure what GC means. again its hard to go into detail without knowing what you are doing. but it works like this, coldfusion server loads the...

    coldfusion spawn java thread?

    while there are certain things that can be done asyncrously with coldfusion what your doing generally would be syncrounous.(dunno if I spelled that right) What I would do is write a jvm that acts as a gateway. Coldfusion is going to wait for a response, iirc, and then process on. If your back...

    coldfusion spawn java thread?

    theres a couple of problems with your question. 1. there is no clear definition of WHAT you are trying to do. It sounds like you just want to use coldfusion to serve up a java application. 2. you can call java classes via the cfobject tag. 3. CFML still needs a server to serve the...

    Database Design Question

    1. I would use a more descriptive name simply because "status" could end up becoming a reserved dbms keyword. 2. prefacing table names with tbl(in ms sql server) is part of hte Leszynski naming convention and as I understandit will bypass the sysobjects that looks for system tables first...
