Kill the Meme
Bayard is perpetuating The StringBuffer Myth. I've read statements to this effect before, but never investigated them. I forgive Bayard because I've been a victim of it myself. That's what I get for operating without a profiler.
Or does Bay have it right when he talks about Strings being interned, and the problems that may cause. Really, this Java stuff is just durned confusing.

User maintenance has been raised more than once. I just checked changes into CVS so that users can edit their name, password, and email address. ( Sep 04 2002, 06:42:47 PM ) Roller Permalink [Trackback]

I'm da man!
Matt posted a problem with Roller to the dev-list, and I posted an answer. His response was this:
Yep, I'm da man! ( Sep 03 2002, 08:12:29 PM ) Roller Permalink [Trackback]Beauty, worked like a charm! That's 2 issues you've solved for me today!
You da man!
Entry permalink anchors: Matt wanted the ability to create anchors for each blog entry, and I'd been wanting it too. I rooted around a bit and found that support is already there. I altered my current DayTemplate to look like this:
#foreach( $entry in $entries )
<p>
<a name="$entry.anchor" id="$entry.id"></a>
<b>$entry.title</b> $entry.text
<span class="dateStamp">($entry.pubTime)</span>
$macros.showEntryPermalink($entry)
</p>
#end
Note then 3rd line. I used different values for name and id, but just as a demonstration (you must use $entry.anchor for the name else it won't work). An alternative would be to change showEntryPermalink() to generate a link using the entry id instead....

Kill the Zealots!
For years now I've been saying "I hate zealots, kill them all!", but I don't know that anybody listened. Nice to meet someone with a similar attitude. Sadly, the older I get the less anti-zealous I get. I'm working on it.
