K, fine. I'll let you have the last word. Go ahead. You're welcome.

Anyone bother to goto the site and view the HTML source? I am going to go out on a limb and state that the design philosophy was rapid change. Those are some bloated pages. Maybe code project could have a contest to see who can rewrite the healthcare.gov home page (just the index) in the smallest download footprint that would operate on the latest versions of all the major browsers.

and there are 500 million lines of source code!
there is just so much nonsense out there about this right now.

Here's a great overview of what happened on a technical level, it looks like the front-end was done by one company (and is Ruby based), and the back-end was done by a different company and is Java based.
Great read!

The website looks very MVC - ish to me. Microsoft or not. With some backbone.js thrown in there.

It's no different than a Microsoft.com site. Or the Apple.com site. Or any of thousands of other websites.

One difference is they work.

The issues with Healthcare.gov have to do with bandwidth, database bottlenecks and poor page-behind coding. None of that is going to manifest in the page's source.
|
|
|
|

True. Unless it's JS.
I see your comment was very specific to just viewing the source. I was making a snide remark about how crappy healthcare.gov is, not just it's source.

A suburban Chicago Catholic high school has begun randomly testing students to see if they've consumed alcohol in the past three months.[^]
Are they going to punish students for underage drinking if they test positive, or punish them for not attending Mass if they test negative>

Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Catholic Schools are private. If the students don't like it they have other options.

I'm not questioning it's legallity; I'm calling it idiotic. Since they're also testing for drugs it's clear what they think they're looking for; but any good Catholic kid is going to have traces of alcohol processed through their system.

Well I went to a private school that had drug testing and zero tolerance so ...

None of the above, because if it doesn't happen at school, it's none of their damn business.

So if school starts at 8:00 and the person downs a few beers at 7:45 off of school grounds, that's okay? Students and teachers alike?

Maybe? How many beers? Being drunk in school / at work is kind of "happening at school" I suppose

Test for the Last Three Months is not at all relevant to the 'drunk at school' concept.
Drunk at school is an issue of it's own. Drunk last month whilst on holiday is none of their business.

Absolutely!
In that context, and considering the general flow of responses, I'd like to repeat the question - but towards those who find it acceptable, in any way, for an organization to intrude in the private affairs of those within its thrall.
Answers, effectively saying, "if you don't like it, leave", or "it was like that when I was in school" - they're the problem to which the threads title should refer.
