Immediately.

State or federal... it's NOT EXCUSABLE. There is NO defense for it, Atty. None. And do not even try.

It's called SCALING. And pretty DAMN elementary in the world of website servers.

Yeah. Capacity/load testing seems to have been....underestimated or under-done.

This is what I get:

Health insurance Marketplace: Please wait

We have a lot of visitors on our site right now and we're working to make your experience here better. Please wait here until we send you to the login page. Thanks for your patience!

What merde!!!!


And do not thank me for my patience... I do not HAVE ANY.

When you send out invitations to guests to attend a party you are hosting, it's really really bad form to not be home when your guests arrive... or to make them stand at your front door while you tidy up your home.

if i were just a little more curious i'd visit the virginia website to see if it withstood the onslaught :laugh:

They sent me a page after waiting. I'm in, BTW. Filling out stuffis.
Important: Your account couldnt be created at this time. The system is unavailable.
Spoke too soon. lol.

This is exactly why I said I would leave it alone today. (Bear goaded me into checking....he does that.)

@CES: I would have checked out the $$$$ figures and thought about it.

Birmingham, Al
I was just wondering if there are that many people who want insurance, or whether the servers were being overwhelmed by the curious. I mean if everyone really hated it, then theoretically the server load would be relatively light. I've still got a job for at least one more year (probably).

Never mind. i have to rewrite some exam questions for a 1pm exam for another class, because the person running that class wasn't clear about what he wanted, and didn't tell me that until right now. Since i teach and have a meeting immediately following, i have to re-write the freaking questions now. What pisses me off is that i was updating the questions yesterday, his email said stick with the old questions, now he says that's not what he meant. idiot.

I got to the "registration" page and was told I already have an account and password.

I do NOT have a UserID and Password. Now what??? I cannot create a new account.
