Thread Name: BS: nginx?
Subject: RE: BS: nginx?
bobad -

I agree that often people ask a question and then don't let us know if our answers were helpful. Sometimes it may be because we're having so much fun adding (and arguing about) answers that they may not want to interrupt(?).

The OP in this case has been posting regularly since this thread, so apparently she wasn't disabled and unable to come back. I've noted the tendency of a few here to get "confused" with too much advice, or with advice that looks "too techie" for their easy application, and simple shyness might be a reason for not reporting back.

It may be likely that we'll see more questions similar to the nginx one (i.e. stuff most of us will have to look up). There seems to have been a fairly recent "proliferation of new languages" for some unknown(?) reason. One publisher that sends me occasional ads offered (in their last email) books on more than two dozen "new-fad languages" that their current books pretend to explain, with the only one I recognized being F# - which I can't see that I need.
