- You can now add a Note directly on the Add a friend page - handy if you'd like to mark down where you met them or another name you know them by!
- On the Ban and unban users page (under Account -> Privacy) you can now add a Note, including to a group of users all banned at the same time (so that next year you won't need to ask yourself "hey, why did I ban these guys?")
- When you're viewing your existing Notes they're grayed out; click in a field to activate it to change the text (this page can be found from the header by using Profile -> Manage Notes)
- Changes to editing:
- When you're going to create a new Note but one already exists, you'll get a warning that you're editing an existing Note
- You can now delete a note from the "Edit note" pop-up in the hover menu
- You can now delete notes for multiple selected users on the Manage notes page
- When you change Notes on "Ban|unban users" page, they can be edited and saved with "Save Changes" button
- In another effort to zap spam, comments containing links from domains LiveJournal deems untrustworthy are now automatically screened
- If you sign up to get notifications of the Writer's Block question of the day, you'll now see the daily question in the email notification, so you'll have a little extra time to ponder before you post. You can subscribe to Writers Block notifications here
- The issue causing random comments to vanish has been fixed!
- If you visit a LiveJournal page and get prompted to log in, you'll be returned to the same page after you sign in (Thanks, Dreamwidth)!
- If you don't edit the timestamp for an entry at all, the entry timestamp will indicate the time the entry was posted instead of the time the Update Journal page was loaded
- Comments with paddings/backgrounds render correctly within the comment box (and will no longer wrap outside the box and break frames/margins)
- We've updated our RTE (Rich Text Editor) to FCKeditor version 2.6.5
- When switching from the RTE to HTML editor, links for syndicated feeds are no longer broken
- RTE now functions properly in Safari 4.0
- An extra line/space will not be auto-inserted whenever you switch from RTE to HTML editor
- The insert image link now works correctly in all browsers

latin [ ink_tree ] |
20:55 | Macrons? I've only taken one year of Latin in school, but I intend to pursue the subject on my own, and perhaps in college. My first year Latin teacher told us to ignore macrons, and after that absolutely nothing was said on the subject. I never paid any attention to them...should I have? I literally don't notice them now, and I have no idea when they should appear. I'm feeling like I should've paid attention from the beginning...then I'd have some idea of their use and application. So, are macrons important? Should I start figuring them out? Annnd, any tips? (There are some translation help requests below this post - I don't mean to bump them down.) |

latin [ aw_hereitgoes ] |
15:42 | Do I have this correct? I've recently started to practice my Latin outside of class and have taken up composing sentences. I started with a very short conversation, consisting of two lines of dialogue. In English, it'd sound best as: "If you walk out of this house, don't come back." "I won't want to come back." In Latin, I've got both of these lines as: "Si e hāc villā ambulas, noli redire," and "Redire nolebo," respectively. So, am I on the right track, or am I horribly, horribly wrong? I have to say that I'm mainly confused with the "e hāc villā" of the first sentence. Do I have that anywhere near right? Aktuala Mood:  hopefulAktuala Music: "Sleigh Ride" - PHD |

esperanto [ glitterboy4519 ] |
15:25 | Mia nederlanda frazo de la tago... Lately, I've been putting most of my language mind to having fun with Dutch and Esperanto. I looked at my Dutch sentence of the day and thought to myself... Hey, you know how to say that in Esperanto! (Or at least I THINK I do, hence putting it in the community...) La frazo en la nederlanda lingvo: Wil je kijken hoe we de geiten melken? ...Kaj en la angla lingvo: Do you want to see how we milk the cows? ...KAJ jen la frazo en esperanto: Ĉu vi volas vidi kiel ni melkas la bovinojn? Do you ever find yourself making habits like this to learn a language? I've found that I can keep my passion for many languages alive when I make little projects like this that force my brain to use more than one foreign language at a time. Mi skribos plu en esperanto, sed nun mi ne scias multan kaj mi skribas/parlas tre malbone esperanton :( |

18:35 | [personal] Another day in the Northeast Well, today was not exactly made of win. We drove 50 miles in the remnants of Hurricane Ida to reach our client. We arrived early, made a coffee stop to kill a little time and prep for the meeting. Driving into the client site, my co-worker spilled a 16 oz latte on my pants and shoes. This was not good meeting prep, frankly. (Though the meeting went just fine.) On the way back, we stopped for gas near the Philadelphia Airport. Weather was still wet and raw, and so due to my continuing efforts not to catch a respiratory illness, my co-worker got out to pump, and nearly got rolled by a dude in a black parka. So, erm, just as glad to be safely back in my hotel room. Tomorrow, San Francisco and ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif){kind=small} calendula_witch! |

05:46 | [cancer] A brief note on stress When I'm very stressed out, I show it in specific ways. For example, I can't work a Sudoku puzzle. I make a lot of arithmetic errors. My sleep habits get wonky. This is to say, I've been diligent about exercising lately, and I wake up on time, without the alarm clock even now, and can still work Sudokus. That's how I know that even in the face of emotional anguish, nonstop talking about it, and comfort eating, still much of the cancer stress is me processing stuff, rather than me cratering in the face of it. When I stop being able to wake up on time is when the shit will really have hit the fan. |

23:45 | look before you leap I started to investigate yesterday's idea of a shell implementation in Perl, and immediately got mired in the Byzantine shell quoting rules. The most basic thing about the shell turns out to be unnecessarily hard, and besides, it's already been done. Why did I think this was a good idea again? Somehow I had got it into my head that msysgit on Windows would only run from the msysgit shell. Since I don't actually use Git on Windows, it turns out I was mistaken. If you run any Git command from the regular Windows command prompt, it already works. The appropriate shell is invoked to execute the shell script (git-rebase is one such shell script, instead of being part of the native C implementation). Nothing to see here, move along... |

19:12 | [travel] The day that wasn't My flight left Portland this morning in the pre-dawn darkness, and landed in Philadelphia this evening in dusk's last failing light. I spent almost eight hours sitting on airplanes, with a 40 minute break in the middle in DFW. Talk about your lost days... On the other hand, I did Day Jobbery work, got 3,900 words in on "The Specific Gravity of Grief", answered a couple of interviews, and took two naps, as well as reading a good chunk more of The Jade Man's Skin. I did wear the stupid fricking mask. Boy did that get old after a while. I also pretended to OCD and used hand sanitizer frequently. We'll see if any of this helps stave off respiratory infection. Much like the city's alligator watch, we'll never know unless it fails. My state of mind in this regard is left as an exercise for the reader. Dinner tonight with klingonguy, valverdi and their friend D—, who likely has an LJ handle but I'm not smart enough to figure it out. Quite nice an evening.The Philadelphia Airport Marriott, on the other hand, is yet another Marriott property without wireless. I don't get it. For what these rooms cost, they shouldn't have any problem doing what every Motel 6 and mom-and-pop coffee house in the country can do. I'm done staying at Marriott properties, given how many other hotel chains seem to manage this minor issue just fine. I can't believe they don't get constant pushback from their business travel customers over this. Tomorrow is a roadtrip from Philadelphia to the Pennsylvania hinterlands for Day Jobbe meetings. At least I'll see the sun tomorrow. And then off to San Francisco Friday, and my sweet calendula_witch. |
