[01:36:33] <takyon> hi cmn32480 or anybody
[01:36:39] <takyon> check out the Tor story I just posted
[01:36:47] <cmn32480> will look in a sec
[01:37:02] <takyon> a new update was added on the Tor blog that ramps up the reaction that this story will get considerably
[01:37:15] <takyon> I'm not sure whether to mention "sexual misconduct" in the headline
[01:37:39] <takyon> https://blog.torproject.org
[01:37:41] <Schwifty> ^ 03Statement | The Tor Blog
[01:38:07] <takyon> I fully expect commenters screaming about a hostile SJW takeover of Tor
[01:38:14] <takyon> I'll be back here later
[01:40:21] <cmn32480> I'll fix it up
[01:40:47] <cmn32480> the extra links will go in the extended commetns, and a cut of the second link will go in the summary

[02:45:33] <Bytram> thanks a bunch for filling in the story queue!
[02:46:25] <Bytram> commencement ceremony was good; glad I attended. Relived some old (some might suggest ancient) memories.
[02:47:49] <Bytram> dunno what happened with the double-posting of that 'Shark' story... was done on my cellphone, so I must have fat-fingered somethin. Glad someone saw it and blocked it from appearing twice.. thanks!
[02:55:15] <Bytram> umm, ooops.
[02:56:01] <Bytram> I misread the color scheme in the story list... it *did* go out twice at one. thanks to runaway who pointed it out to me, I was able to UN-Display the dupe and so only one copy now appears ont he main page.

[12:46:29] <Bytram|away> cmn32480: !!
[12:46:41] <cmn32480> ~gday Bytram|away
[12:46:43] * exec casually reticulates $container of CentOS for Bytram|away
[12:46:45] <Bytram|away> heads up: The Fed reserve story...
[12:47:03] <Bytram|away> cannot have anything other than the href= in an <a href=""> element
[12:47:24] <Bytram|away> for some reason, it messes things up and hte the </a> does not get noticed
[12:47:35] <Bytram|away> so, itlooks likeyou get the open ,a ...
[12:47:41] <Bytram|away> and hten it stays open
[12:47:45] <Bytram|away> until the end of the story
[12:47:56] <Bytram|away> at least that is what I saw on my mobile and PM browsers
[12:48:06] <Bytram|away> nasties to watch for:
[12:48:15] <Bytram|away> in this particular case: rel="stuff"
[12:48:26] <Bytram|away> also seen with: title="stuff"
[12:48:37] <Bytram|away> I have absolutlely NO idea why it messes thingsup
[12:49:01] <Bytram|away> that said, I seem to have TRIPLE posted the shark story
[12:49:06] <Bytram|away> and have NO IDEA how I do htat!!
[12:49:12] <Bytram|away> is driving me NUTS!
[12:49:17] <cmn32480> refreshing the screen will double/triple post
[12:49:25] <Bytram|away> hrmmmm
[12:49:38] <Bytram|away> sounds like a bug
[12:49:52] <cmn32480> no
[12:50:10] <cmn32480> if it is done from the screen after you click save, it reruns the code that saves the story
[12:50:31] <Bytram|away> and the code that saves the story could check to see if there is already a story with that release date/time
[12:50:46] <Bytram|away> if same, should error out or flag it or something.
[12:51:03] <Bytram|away> also
[12:51:06] <cmn32480> k
[12:51:22] <Bytram|away> when editing a story, you've seen the "90% matches story" blah open by foo?
[12:51:35] <Bytram|away> should be a way to leverage that comparison in this case, too.
[12:53:06] <cmn32480> none of the <a href= statemetns in that article look incorrect
[12:53:25] <Bytram|away> yes, cause I fixed it.
[12:53:27] <Bytram|away> on my phone
[12:53:33] <Bytram|away> painful!
[12:53:46] <Bytram|away> but thanks for looking!
[12:54:06] * Bytram|away wishes there were a way to archive each edited version of a story
[12:54:45] <Bytram|away> in addition to a sid (storyid) there could be a vid (versionid)
[12:54:53] <Bytram|away> or verid, or versid
[12:55:15] <Bytram|away> after all THAT,
[12:55:27] <Bytram|away> thanks SO MUCH for keeping the story queue filled last night!!!!
[12:55:34] <Bytram|away> was so glad to go to the commencement
[12:55:53] <Bytram|away> would love to chat, but I need to be at work in 45 minutes, and haven't even hit the shower yet.
[12:56:02] <Bytram|away> again THANKS!!!!!!!!!

[21:33:30] <takyon> How do you manage those triple posts martyb
[21:33:47] <takyon> I've seen you do one a couple weeks ago where it was like 5 duped stories rather than 2 or 3
[21:34:23] <takyon> oh I get it
[21:34:55] <takyon> instead of refreshing an admin.pl list, I would ALWAYS click on the Stories link
[21:35:12] <takyon> I already do that for no particular reason... I guess since the link is usually closer than F5
[21:35:28] <takyon> (my keyboard kind of sucks)
[21:40:07] <takyon> I think I also dismiss the success page or click "Stories" link by reflex
