pearson still uses java for testnav, which the state-mandated tests in texas use for online testing. pearson sent out instructions last month on allowing npapi plugins to still run in chrome, and said they'd figure out something when the door finally gets welded shut in sept

I'm not sure there are "correct" decisions in IT. There isn't a good technology to go with, they're all bad.

Only my dentist does IT right.
