- People who think stop all way is the same as a stop sign and start crawling out slowly.
- People who double park next to a car with empty space in front and behind the parked car.
- People who drive left to make a right turn even though they're not driving a truck.
- People who buy sports cars and then drive 5 below speed limit.
- People who social distance when parking. Your car doesn't need to be 6' away from other cars, it's not going to catch covid.

Upgrading to ColdFusion 2021
If you're thinking of upgrading to CF21 and you use cfspreadsheet in your code, don't.
Cfspreadsheet, when doing read, randomly locks files anywhere from minutes to hours. The only way to get rid of the lock if you want to move or delete the file is to restart the main instance even if the file was locked by another instance.
On July 22nd, Adobe said that the issue is fixed in Update 2, but gave no eta from when Update 2 will be released.

Toyota Microphone Not Working
Do you have a recent model Toyota with Entune? Did your microphone and/or wifi suddenly stop working? The wifi app doesn't work. You can make and receive calls and can hear the other party but they can't hear you. Voice commands don't work anymore.
The issue is likely the DCM. You can verify it by looking at the display and seeing the DCM greyed out even when bluetooth is connected. Also, the SOS in the ceiling doesn't have a green light.
The fix is simple. Open the hood. Open the fuse box on the right. Pull out and put back the DCM fuse.

ColdFusion - using a colon in sql with queryexecute
Using MySQL regexp character classes will throw an error if entered in the sql directly.
A workaround is to add the regex expression as a queryparam.
The following will throw an error:
queryexecute("SELECT [column] REGEXP '[[:character-class:]]'...");
Here's the workaround:
queryexecute("SELECT [column] REGEXP :regex...",{regex:{value:"'[[:character-class:]]'"}});
