introducing the symbolic compagnions |
|
|
NoSimpler archives now integrate a symbol readout [ Asc Mo] to uniquely capture and identify each post in time and space.
This site integrates a daily chart created for my location and birth-time which it presents in symbolic form in the Daily Symbols Category and expanded in its archive. Much of the daily information accompanies each regular archive page, but all that is just the background to the post-time symbols of the Moon and Ascendant. These accompany each post on the archive page. The reader is encouraged to consult the symbols accompanying each post to get a sense of the etheric climate of its moment. Sometimes (with femine signs) you will get a perspective on you as a reader, at other times (with male signs) you will get a crisp picture of me. Its an added dimension in any case. To my knowledge there is no prior art for this type of integration although many people have seen the desirability of this solution for many decades. I am one of them. And I'm putting the notion of this type of cross domain intgration into the public domain. A web-service might follow. interested? help me! Through this set of pages.. I want to deliver to you a real correlate of the energy driving the words. Which is what energy does. Lets not pretend the words came first, ok? There's nothing to believe with astrology - which is what's driving this. When you figure it, its just algebra that delivers insights into how the facts relate. So go, get a symbolic perspective on this bLog! | ||

quickly loose everything with [Ctrl-] Backspace |
|
|
do not do this:
open weblogdata.root.. navigate to "posts" and press Ctrl-BackSpace. Ctrl-BackSpace kills. it has the potential to ruin your setup. i suspect that there is a system level callback (they seem to exist for all sorts of things) that i have not found which could prevent me and others from accidentally pressing Ctrl-BackSpace when attempting to hit it's innocuous cousin, Shift-BackSpace. * find a way to disable the key-combo * work out a method by which to update TWO radio.roots and to master/patch one from the other in case of accidental tree deletions. no, this has not happened to me on a branch that mattered. not yet. but my encounter with that key-combo was enough to freak. there appears to be no undo for it. if there is.. or if you have a solution, get in touch please. | ||

nutzoid misinterpretations and some neat helper routines |
|
|
from the hunches dept: the more source i read the more i am scratching my head about the way subroutines are avoided and code is inlined. i have counted too many references that refer to subroutines as 'bottlenecking code' and i find that puzzling. here's why.. and the hunch in detail:
for someone freely instantiating local variables on the head when they could be initialized and reused to call a parameterless function call a bottleneck is making me think that fundamentally the source is accessed as if it was data.. e.g. that it is literally semaphore'd, introducing overhead in the call.. this would restrict concurrent use of functions, be silly and bad and force one to inline as much as is being done while allowing one to call delegation bottlenecking. this would make a lot of sense if the genesis of the outliner proved to be a single-user vision. its a hunch right now, but i'm going to go mad if it turns out that no matter how many threads one uses that code block are serialized beyond my control. ..meanwhile i use 'functions'. here are my two favorites: ;-)on IsDynamic() { local (pta=html.getPageTableAddress());return !(pta^.radioResponder.flStaticRendering)} on IsStatic() { local (pta=html.getPageTableAddress()); return (pta^.radioResponder.flStaticRendering)} | ||

work-around for post-item callback issue:
modifiednow i've got to see about not loosing the blasted changes next time radio updates itself. i wonder whatever became of the hackmaster dreams.. | ||
| #> 15:52 Radio |
radio post-item callback too early -- timing bug |
|
|
more callback trouble. this time its about the timing of the post-item callbacks. my goal is to inherit the state of the 'NotOnHomePage' flag from the category i'm posting an item to. here is my callback routine: on postItem(adrpost) { local { flaxNotOnHomePage=false; adrBlog= radio.weblog.init(); adrCatgs= @adrBlog^.categories; catg; catn=""}; adrPost^.ok= "yes"; if defined(adrPost^.categories) { adrPost^.ok= "yes, it has categories"; for catg in @adrPost^.categories { catn=nameOf(Catg^); if defined(adrCatgs^.[catn].flaxNotOnHomePage) { flaxNotOnHomePage= adrCatgs^.[catn].flaxNotOnHomePage; if flaxNotOnHomePage { break}}}}; adrPost^.flNotOnHomePage= flaxNotOnHomePage}
as you can see, this is easy (its finally all making sense to me). I set an an "OK" flag when this routine gets called... there are never any categories for new posts. THIS IS A BUG. its right and you have full data when you edit existing posts... but not for new posts; that is when it gets called prematurely.. sending me on a hunt for a workaround. | ||

phew. i own my name in google |
|

hey! after a few weeks of running my weblog i finally own my own name in google!
they have me in the POW/MIA category, which is ironic and perhaps somewhat true in a meta sense.. but thats ok. i've not done any real work on keywords and page-descriptions yet. i'm just glad that one can find my current site, not some inane observation about XML or just pointers to past work. why? cause i'm just getting started. :) | ||

i'm proud of myself for managing to break away from computer madness these last couple of days while actually engaging in it..
i left the end of the week free to do some pleasure programming. things being what they are, your typical 5hr session winds up consuming 25hr real-time. this is usually where i loose it. loose what? my connection to my self. that's what i loose when i remain in my head for too long at a stretch. if i loose it completely i forget that i have a personal life, goals, plans, hopes & dreams, friends, a lover.. i truly forget about all that. i push it away. 'must finish the code', 'just one last thing'.. these are the things i think to keep myself locked out of me. i wound up doing 3 shifts, 25hrs total, over the last 2 days and stayed reasonably clear in the process because i stretched, walked about and practiced with my sword while keeping my thoughts away from the project i was in. i never used to do that. i'm thrilled and happy to be able to code - even this little - without feeling that i'm going to loose my life and relationships to it. keeping my thoughts away from the/any/a project while i'm in it.. and letting a break be a break without fear of loosing momentum is new and big for me. lets keep it up; took a lot of development to get here :) | ||

received by the news aggregator--- this is better than animal pictures! a note like this makes rogi more real to me and lets me know that he'll be quiet today. it matters not at all, but its a few bytes that serve to keep us in the village that i just pointed to in the Douglas Adams article. that's important, yes? | ||

renumbering is a go. |
|
|
if this all worked as designed i have now backfilled my database with empty posts for 11:24 each day since the start of the year. the posts were automatically renumbered and the storylists rebuilt, keeping the entire database functioning normally. -- i did this to allow my custom rendering for the "Daily Symbols" category to have something to trigger it in the past. -- when i get back to it, i'll integrate some more neats bits of information into the Archive and Symbols pages. -- if you have not noticed what i'm doing in "Daily Symbols", take a look, then click the day-icon. also see how that same data flows neatly into all other category archive pages. | ||
