Best Job Posting Ever


Best Job Posting Ever 08/12/2004 07:41 AM

Macromedia - ColdFusion Support Forums - Cold Fusion/SQL Server programmer needed: I agree with just about everything here:

Please DON'T respond [...] If we have a tense moment or we say that we don't like the way you did some work and that it's not absolutely perfect and you're not the greatest programmer God ever put upon the earth and/or, we don't constantly stroke your ego and reassure you that you're wonderful every 5 minutes, you go off and sulk like a baby and when we try to call you to discuss it, you let the answering machine get it, listen to our message and then respond seconds later with a nasty mean email. Be a grown up, pick up the phone and talk about it.

Very long, but a great look into the mind of many programmers. At one time, I was probably one of them. Here's to hoping I'm not anymore. Via Anil Dash.

Best Practices in K5 posting


Best Practices in K5 posting 03/25/2005 03:44 PM
I have a three part suggestion for improving the quality and quantity of K5 article submissions: Give constructive editorial advice in the edit queue, and nothing else and nowhere else. Hold your topical comments until an article is voted up. Debate article's worthiness in the voting phase, and nothing else and nowhere else. These suggestions are not meant to be exhaustive; they focus on the simplest things we can do to improve the site while doing the most common activity on the site: posting responses to stories.

How to limit comments to one week after

How to limit comments to one week after
posting
01/07/2004 05:24 PM

I've been thinking a lot recently on the issues we'll be facing as blogging continues to grow and be successful. One of the spam fighting tools (metaphor: club, not lojack) I implemented was a restriction on comment posting to posts that have been created in the past week. A few people have written and asked how I implemented the time restriction on comments.

It is actually very simple, once you've got a SQL backend (see previous post) for your blog. Here's the script I have running out of my crontab:


#!/usr/bin/perl

use DBI;

my $dbname = 'DATABASENAME';
my $hostname = 'localhost'; # Change this if the db is on another box
my $dbuser = 'DBUSER';
my $dbpass = 'DBPASS';

$dbh=DBI->connect("dbi:mysql:database=$dbname;host=$hostname", $dbuser, $dbpass);

$dbh->do("update mt_entry set entry_allow_comments='0' where entry_created_on < date_sub(NOW(),interval 7 day)");


I run this every hour. Basically, it makes a single SQL call, which updates the entry_allow_comments column on mt_entry to turn off comment posting on entries that are older than 7 days. Use and enjoy.

Blog Posting Client Roundup


Blog Posting Client Roundup 04/21/2004 11:48 PM

Testing Blog Clients: A nice little wrap-up of blog posting clients. Bummer about Zempt though:

Unfortunately, while the Zempt website is still around, I haven't been able to get any of the download links to work for over a week, and there haven't been any updates or news for months. DOA?

I haven't heard boo out of Adam Kalsey for months on Zempt (his name being completely written out and linked in the hope that he'll pick this post up on a Feedster or Technorati search and stop by to comment...).

comments on the Mel Gibson/Haiti posting


comments on the Mel Gibson/Haiti posting 03/08/2004 11:03 PM

Hmm... this Manila software that Harvard runs seems to have mislinked all the comments posted.  I'm cutting and pasting some manually and please feel free to use the comments button underneath this posting to comment on the original (below).

From Zoran Lazarevic:

Two hundred years in a history of a nation is a short time to change human behavior without force. For one example, think that slavery was abolished in the U.S. in 1865, but the first black generation that grew in freedom and equality was born in 1970s.

Compare today Serbs living a couple of miles away: across the river Danube which marked the border between the Austro-Hungarian empire (north) and the Ottoman empire (south). In the north, they live in neatly painted houses lined along geometrically straight roads, behind tall walls keeping the privacy of their property. Villages just south of Danube are hectically built around worn-out curvy roads, having short transparent fences displaying property in slight disarray. The north prides itself with culinary craft and the taste for fine arts from Austria and Hungary. The south takes pride in warriorship and macho attitude, and jokes about its own widespread bribery.

Serbia proper was liberated from the (Turkish) Ottoman Empire in the early 1800s, and united with the north in 1918.  There is absolutely no question, that if separated, the two regions would have very different economies. Just like there are vast differences between other ex-Yugoslavia states. And that is all after a century of common life, mostly under communism which tried to kill out (pun intended) all differences in religion and nationality.

From Fazal Majid:

You could blame Lazare Carnot (d. 1823) for fathering Sadi Carnot (d. 1832), the inventor of thermodynamics, and thus leading to global warming...

Soldiers posting Iraq photos on the net


Soldiers posting Iraq photos on the net 12/03/2003 05:16 AM
While doing some digital camera format research, I ran across Through the Lens of a Soldier, which are ostensibly (I assume that they are genuine, having no reason to disbelieve it) pictures taken by a soldier in the 101st Airborne division serving in Mosul in Northern (Kurdish) Iraq that were then posted on a photo sharing service by her sister, for all to see and comment on. The debate on whether the Iraq War is good or bad is of course raging in the comments, with many of the participants ostensibly members of the armed forces. There are many moving photos, and some funny ones -- my favorite in that category is a picture of a "no photography" sign. How does it change journalism when serving soldiers are publishing reports and photos from the front for all to see? How about when they start sending back live video? And then other serving soldiers debate the war in the comments of the publication forum? How does it change the military, and the relationship between the military and the American people? I don't know the answer to any of these questions, except to know that it will cause changes to all of the above, and to hope that more openness and more unfiltered communication between the American citizens at home and those citizens serving in the armed forces will enhance democracy....
