“Ask any software professional, and they will tell you that unstable requirements, no experienced management personnel, and development personnel with a poor track record will guarantee DOOM on a project. And you can’t test quality into bad software - testing reveals errors, and every fix you make has a high probability of introducing more errors.”
Well said!
From a software perspective, they can’t fix it and it will have to be torn down and re-implemented by someone who knows what they are doing and how to do it.
But they can’t — because no one knows how everything is supposed to fit together ==> no firm requirements.
The only answer, speaking logically, is to TEAR IT DOWN, and go back to status quo ante. The only thing keeping that from happening is the political hubris of Obamma&Co.
Can’t someone get an injunction to shut it down??
The car with the “I (heart) Obamacare” bumber sticker on the lower part of her trunk did, in fact, have Texas license plates. This was in Ellsworth, Maine about three weeks ago.
I was leaving the parking lot seconds after she parked next to me.....it was an early twenty-something woman. She probably came from Austin.
Hopefully, she’ll head “south”.....to Boston or New York City, where she’ll be right at home. Here’s hoping she stays out of The Lone Star State.
I fear the satire in your comment will sail right over the heads of a great many WaPo readers, who will take you literally (and agree!).
BS! This is probably how Obama Administration is unlawfully delaying Obamacare until after 2014 elections.
Probably true for about 1/3 of them.
The other 2/3 will just go “Huh?”
You have to first select “all comments” not just “top comments.”
(I don’t know who the smaller subset of “top commenters” are, but they appear to only be elite WaPo-chosen Obama Kool-Aid drinkers.)
Under “all comments” select “most liked” and mine is on top.
Smart!
Good one...I’ve noticed that earlier...very clever!
These folks are definite sheeple and what’s interesting is we are a fairly conservative county...but apparently, we have some “true believers” and sadly, most around here are A-As......
Is Anthem Blue Cross Hitler, or Stalin?
This is hard to understand, since government usually operates flawlessly.
Or the problems when millions of illegal immigrants using stolen IDs start having their data mixed with that of the real individuals - including medical history, blood type and billing.

Rush's take, here.
Only $30 million was spent on the web development. The additional $33 million was spent on web contract administration that went down to the precinct level

Burn baby, burn!
People who don't really know what it takes to write a program actually think that somehow you just turn the computer on and magic happens. They have no idea what software engineering is all about.
What has happened is a tremendous flaw the liberals have contracted and it may actually help us.
BUMP : )
It’s no leap from “We have to pass it to find out what’s in it.” to “We have to put it online to see if works.”
I did not read all the posts, but I’m wondering if they put out the shitty web site to get people to bite. Lets forget about the shut down and focus on how shitty the ACA is. The shut down is over and all the sudden the website is up and running and secure. just wondering.
