My company is hiring a company for the 5th or so time to outsource IT to this new wonder app that will replace us. It's being built in Cold Fusion. Lmfao, 22 years old out of the gate.

So far they're about 2-3m in trying to replace us. Never gets far. Worst managed company I've ever seen. And as a consultant/contractor for 25+ years I've seen a lot of horribly run companies.

Apparently. I just started laughing when I heard about it. I'm going to pitch an ASP (classic) project next!

I don't know if you're joking or not about the ASP classic.

I'm joking. I would not start a new project in Classic ASP in 2003, much less 2018.

I did like it back in the day though and it was still a better choice than .Net 1.0. .Net 1.1 was okay, by 2.0 it was pretty decent. 4.0 beyond is fantastic IMO. I'm a bit of an MS fan though. I like their tools.

That's a relief. :)
