oh wow I totally managed to block "portals" from my memory for like 20 years IBM WEBSPHERE PORTAL SERVER for all of your portal needs I worked on a portal thing for like 9 months and the entire time I thought surely there is a better way to present this information other than random slowly loading boxes on a webpage last published 9 may 2009 rip https://portals.apache.org/jetspeed-2/

KOTEX GOD OF BLOOD posted:my grandparents installed a central vacuum system in their vacation house and i love how funky it is. there are outlets throughout the place you plug the hose of the attachment into, which connects to a central vacuum tank in the garage. it's unnecessarily complicated and extremely ineffective my childhood home had one of those. I lost so many hot wheels cars down that god drat vacuum tube vacuuming was like dragging a fuckin fire hose around the house

in the mid 90's i worked for a hospital system that had a medical records app written in server-side javascript (this was p progressive at the time all things considered) - but it basically committed every possible web app security sin possible: passwords stored plaintext, validation done in client-side JS, zero attempts at preventing sql injection, etc. mid-2000's we pitched re-writing it in a modern java stack so we could put it on ~the internet~ so regional doc offices could access records more easily. one of the more dipshit project managers asked "why not just put the existing app on the web?" so to demonstrate why that was a dumb loving idea i brought the app up, put his username in, and put code:

my gf who i love dearly books the most insane flights for no reason for herself sometimes. she's coming up to HK tomorrow and has to get up at 3am to catch her flight. there is no timeline or deadline or any reason to get here at 10am. anyway it reminded me of my favorite flight booking website hipmunk which was acquired by concur/sap some years ago and shut down. i loved it cuz one of the options to sort flights by was "agony" which is just loving brilliant
