Posting From My Android
With WordPress' neat little Android app.
This probably won't help me write more.
Rooting the phone was ridiculously easy and flashing a custom rom was pretty easy once I read a few things and fixed my phone after a bad backup.
The Samsung Captivate runs 2.1, and it's pretty snappy. But a flashed 2.2 rom? Oh man, it's a brand new phone.
I love this thing.
Eh
Charm - Command line program allowing managing of WordPress, Livejournal, Blogger, and quite a few other journal thingers. Runs on Python.
I honestly still have no drive to update this thing despite having an accessible client (the web interface is accessible, but.. :/).
Right now I'm trying to figure out just what the hell is going on with Groovy and SoapUI properties. Groovy seems to insist on storing properites as strings. This is fine, until I need to do some math on -- holy shit. I can probably just store it as a global context variable, but I might get the same issues.
Nope. Same shit. Properties are strings, and none of the java functions (parseInt, getInteger, valueOf) seem to be able to pull the value of it! GRR!
This should work. It doesn't. This is annoying. I don't like trying to fix the same damn bug all day, but I've got nothing else assigned to me... soo...
Fellow tester just said 'sephamore' instead of 'semaphore' .....
Upgrades
I just upgraded from WordPress 2.5 (or 6? I had been lingering for a while) to 2.7. 2.7 is surprisingly really nice. Perhaps the best change is that the UI is no longer shit. For nearly two or three years now, I've been running a plugin to change the admin interface to something more tolerable/usable, but now it actually... looks good. And it functions well while looking good! I am incredibly impressed. I almost want to write more to get used to the interface / look at it more.
Awesome!
I finally got the fortune plugin to work, seems the author wasn't thinking properly when he updated or something (he says he'll fix it for the next release, so that's good). So, yeah, just keep reloading the page for a random quote from my first four semesters here at IIT. I highly doubt that anyone outside of my group here will find them all that funny..
