Is it me, or does anyone else feel like we are making ye-ol CFMX work like Java tooo much since we got it out of the shrink wrap.
I know it serves a purpose, but when i approach a problem with some co-developers-in-around-my-community-and-i-know-via-world-wide-web they always refute a claim with "but in java..." or "well in java we.." I feel like going "yah well if i wanted java, i'd be installing java sdk instead of cfmx..no well thxu stfu plz." Just a left field observation.
