ColdFusion gets Adobe right into the server market with the product that is best known for causing Toys R Us's web site to take a total dump during Christmas of 1999.
What was the last year in which a major web site was deployed that ran under CF? 2001? 2002?
The "arm in door" argument is absurd. In Miami, the metromover operates fully unattended transit cars and no one gets dragged down the track with their arm stuck in the door. In addition, millions of people use the amazing operatorless "elevator" every day and manage to not have their arms and legs sealed in the doors.
I just do not feel like there should be a "beginners guide" to anything involving financial transactions. There are plenty of existing ecommerce frameworks that have been proven secure over time, there is no need for a novice to develop Yet Another Ecommerce System.
I suspect that the ecommerce solution a novice would come up with, using this book for guidance, would have an unacceptably high potential for exploitation. For example, look at the cookie discussion alone. Cart information does not belong in a cookie. A session token, and really nothing else, does. Any time an ecommerce developer reinvents the wheel and ignores "best practices" you can be almost certain that vulnerable code will result.
There's also the problem of the minor labels being totally unrepresented online. Try to get some indie label stuff, like the upcoming Out Hud release on Kranky, and it's not going to happen at iTunes.
Don't forget that the production costs are backcharged to the artists, subtracted from royalties, and are presumably a revenue center for the labels. That is why they seem astronomical, it's the most expensive production choice.
mod this thing up, +5 for the grandparent is a joke. The back-catalog is good because the big 3 now own all of the material from the recording industry's early years.
There's a fairly substantial difference in the way the two engines currently do ranking, though. Google weighs incoming link text over on-page factors. MSN Search weighs on-page factors higher.
When the creating or taking of life is involved, I feel that "just feels wrong" is definitely enough reason to stop, if for no other reason than to determine why the action feels wrong.
I prefer sound processed through analog gear. Compare the Aphex 2020 broadcast processor to something like the Orban 8200. The main problem is the notable amount of latency introduced if any significant DSP graphing is done by a digital processor. I choose the broadcast processors as an example because they are all-in-one boxes, typically doing multiband compression and limiting, preemphasis, leveling, equalization, and other stuff. Even with just multiband compression, there is no digital unit that doesn't introduce latency.
This doesn't even touch on how bad sounding many of the DSP algorithms are when compared to their analog counterparts.

I dunno, I've seen some badass ice sculptures done with chainsaws!!!!
No, I'm saying no one uses stone wheels anymore...

The person who stops people from doing this doesn't need to ride on the train, they can be stationed at busy platforms.

Ever heard of an "elevator"?

Me too, I like my software with fresh exploits.

mostly clean
I suspect they'd agree that you take substance over style.

That might be a nice change, right now it seems like artists not represented by the majors can't really get their works on iTunes at all.

The parent excepted vertical applications.
What are the credentials of these guys? I mean, FIT is a vocational school, not a real academic facility.
Good point, especially considering today's Fans Attempting to Pay for Enterprise article.
$50 to $80 million would provide quite a few of those $100 computers.
Whose Linux? Run's Linux!

Damn, I forgot all about Katz. That guy +did+ write the crappiest articles. Where did he go?

Financially speaking, Wendy's does better than Burger King. In addition, Subway is the world's second largest fast food franchise, not Burger King.
