the 2008 Presidential Election ate my blog


I finally updated my (mt) MediaTemple.net account from a [ss] shared-service to a [gs] grid-service lite account. What does this mean? It means that the server behind ihardlyknower.org is running on top of 2007 technology rather than 2003 technology. And I’ll be more likely to update ‘er more often.

After the upgrade I went through over 5000 comments that were posted on this blog, all of them spam. It’s definitely time to look into CAPTCHA or some other way to block the comment spam. Interesting thing I discovered while paging through the pages and pages of spam - supporters of Ron Paul for President in 2008 was responsible for a few hundred of them. The radio talks about McCain, Huckabee, Giuliani, Romney, Clinton, Obama, Biden and Kucinich. Looks like Ron Paul has the support of the comment spammers.

I’ve been busy with life - learning to play jazz, getting hitched, looking for Brooklyn apartments, helping Chi-ah fight lymphoma, writing code for Laszlo Webtop.
