- Good things don't last forever. Bad things seem to last forever.
- There's a lot of shady shenanigans going on on Wall street
- CNBC is for "entertainment purposes only"
- There's even more shady shenanigans going on in Washington
- Living within your means isn't such a laughable concept
- Thinking a software can predict the market for you is still a pipe dream
- When there's a boom, better not be one of the morons that get into it late. You want to be ahead of a boom and definitely ahead of the bust.
- If you are going to make stupid decisions, better make monumentally stupid ones that can bring down the economy. 'Cos then you are guaranteed to get federal bail out
- Socialism isn't so bad when it's all that's standing between you and economic doom
- Credit cards do have an APR
- Credit cards do not like you. Not unless you don't pay your bills on time. Or you are one of the suckers that pay the "minimum payment".
- Reverse mortgages are a really bad idea. Unless you plan to die soon and you either have no heirs or you want a last chance to stick it to them.
- Store brand merchandise are sometimes just as good as the brand name versions.
- "New and improved", "New shiny packaging" all mean "higher price" when it comes to grocery
- You are more likely to be screwed by an American (on Wall street and in Washington) than by some foreigner in Nigeria.
- All politicians, including Obama, are looking out for #1. And that sure ain't the people!
A departure from sports and politics. This one is about technology.
InfoPath sucks and SharePoint is the most expensive piece of crap ever. InfoPath, as a development environment, has absolutely no redeeming value. It's worthless and if your boss ever thinks of using it, you have three options:
convince him not to (not easy once he's been brainwashed by the Microsoft marketing presentations)use one of Al Gore's lockboxes to store away your sanity 'cos you'll lose it. Also, pad your estimates very generously. You'll need every bit of time you can get.
quit immediately while you still have your sanityFirst, InfoPath:
To me InfoPath is like programming in assembly language. Sure it makes it easy (too easy in fact) to bind data to controls. But it doesn't provide you with easy access to your controls. Why is this important? Say you want to disable a button:
in most technology: buttonA.enabled = false (or something similar).
In InfoPath, you simply can't do this.…
