Re: {NF} Time to hang up my boots?

Guys, I apologize. I drift between a lot of different technologies. I specifically asked the question here about the trusted app because I know there is a wealth of really deep grey experience. Some of the new techs are just the opposite, bright, shiny and lacking substance. I think one of the
