After demonstrating utter incompetence over the past week as far as even altering Wordpress, let alone writing my own php scripts, okay, my own .php scripts that work goes, I am once more in control of this tiny sliver of the cyberwelt; posts appear when I press “publish” as opposed to five days later (as happened with the last post), I can reply to posts, I can even ([ERROR: call var(.last}337,46 not defined])
Yes, I know, not in the least amusing. But brought to you by the kind of mind that would think of this next proto-post after reading all the nonsense about bird flu that’s been in the media of late:
Avian Flu: A Primer
5′-AGTCTTAGTCATTAGCTTACTTAG-3′ (fwd)
But the blog is working properly again. All I have to do now is come up with something to say.
Song playing as this was published: David Bowie - “Life On Mars”
Look, a coding joke (yes, I know a real error call wouldn’t look like that), then a bit of genetics AND a couple of Star Wars quotes. What more could one ask for on a blog?
The engine model on the 10.28 to Portsmouth Harbour perhaps?
And hey, I found the primer bit funny. But I have been up half the night writing about why something that is badly designed and badly built doesn’t do what it was meant to.
Does this mean you know how php works? Can I ask you some really stupid questions (really stupid php questions)? Spot who got volunteered for running an inherited site, and has been making it up on the spot so far (I’ll be fine just as long as they don’t ask me to add any pages - editing pre-existing I can do).
