Just…. NO,NO,NO

This week I attended MWLUG in Alexandria, VA. This was an awesome event, so many good speakers, good content and excellent camaraderie.

There are way too many good to excellent editor choices for writing JavaScript, and I would have to say even the worst editor is better than

But since I've been introduced to SCM I don't know how I managed without it. Pretty much everything I develop at work and personally goes to a git server and when I'm done with the development I just delete it from DDE and possibly even the domino server. I can do that because all of my code is
