From the article it sounded like it wasn't just "who is this person we would like to question them", it was more along the lines of "we need access to this person's email and other data". The former seems possi

That's because the organization requires their docs to file data in that way; it's not a requirement or limitation of the software at all. You're basically saying that software can be used in a shitty way. That's not ex

I fundamentally disagree with the idea that the system can somehow overcome poor implementation; guardrails can only do so much. At the end of the day you can set up almost any piece of software in a way that hinders rather than helps a us

I'm not really sure what to say to that, since you seem to be implying that no one likes it, which is pretty patently false. A lot of it does depend on the organization you're working with, as some are more dysfunctional than othe

That's a pretty pessimistic and quite frankly not accurate assessment of the software. They have a ton of clinical functionality, and that's what the majority of the dev/design spends their time on at their users group meeti

Solid argument, especially after throwing around insults instead of discussing (or refuting) the points brought up in the original comment.

True, but I would guess that oil is used at a much higher rate than sand, especially considering the relative availability of each.

Seems like he could have easily had the meeting in a private conference room, where no one would be eavesdropping. Then he could have quickly and calmly explained the situation to her.

I'm not sure. I've been lucky enough to not have to worry about it, but I've definitely seen it (mostly of the "stalker" variety) and can easily understand why someone would want to remain on the "down low&quo

I'm very happy for you that you feel that you not in a position where that is a risky step. Are you able to fathom that others may not be in that same situation, or are you content to be blasé to their differing circumstances?

"Given enough effort" is the key there. Just because someone can break into your house given enough effort doesn't mean you leave your doors off the hinges.

For people that have rational minds. What about people who are irrational or have some sort of mental illness? I guess that's just a "too bad" for the person who is now dead?

I work in an SVN shop, so I haven't had much experience with git thus far. What are the advantages that git has over SVN in merging? I've never had any problems merging while using SVN.

Like anything, often it's just a matter of selling it properly, even without "authority". Even at an established shop, if something will make a difference in the bottom line, it will likely gain traction. I've been at a
