What is that?
It's a duck pond.
Why aren't there any ducks?
I don't know. There's never any ducks.
Then how do you know it's a duck pond?

Slashzonk

I took "Zonk" off my list of editors over at Slashdot because, let's face it, he's an idiot.

The front page didn't update for the next 24 hours.  Because none of the other dozen of so editors posted anything.

So I re-enabled Zonk, read the page, and then took him off the list again.  Gah.

I expect Slashdot's readers to be about 60% idiots, but I can ignore them, mock them, or (when I have mod points) put the boot in.  Can't do much to Zonk when he's the only editor who's actually doing anything.

Oh my...

What the world needs is real made-to-order Lego sets.  I want my Slayers Lego!

But in the meantime, this is pretty cool.

Aargh! (Part 97 Of A Continuing Series)

Spend two hours debugging a 25-line SQL query only to find out that it is syntactically correct, but that one of the parameters is being passed as a string instead of an int, which causes the interface library to quote it.

The information is there in the error message, but it wouldn't hurt for it to be a little less... delphic:
You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ''30'' at line 1.
The program generates the query as a single line; it only became 25 lines after I broke it down for readability.

Blahs.
