What’s the right way to fix this?
There is no right way to fix that, do you want to redo it the right way, or do it the wrong way, or do it the really wrong way?
I was hoping it could just be done the wrong way, but it looks like it’ll be done the really wrong way…
Sometimes it’s painful being someone who thinks standards compliance and validation is important…
I heard that Drupal is on the verge of getting clean urls, so you’ll be able to use /2002/01/06 instead of /node.php?id=183 or some such other non-human friendly url…
Obviously every publishing system should support clean urls. I can’t wait!
I spent 5+ hours on Saturday outside on our driveway repairing our van. Actually I assisted in the repairs, a friend of ours did the hard work. And hard work it was. We replaced the fuel pump. This involves removing the gas tank, which happened to be full of gas, and then removing the old pump, insering the new pump, and putting the gas tank back in place. I, like most people, complan about the cost of auto repairs (actually, I complain about the cost of just about anything…) but the guys who work on cars and know what they’re doing get a tip of the hat from me.
I still hate cars though…
Things to do, things to do! This is what I recommend doing, as this is what I will be doing.
Make backups of your data from 2002. I mean, backups are a good idea, but since it’s a whole new year, it’s the perfect time. I plan on making backups of my digital photos and email from 2002. With Mac OS X, Mail.app, and iPhoto this is pretty easy, it’s mainly just a matter of copying the right directories to the right place, and then burning them to CD-ROM‘s. Of course you’ll want to remember to make two copies of each disc, and store one set of copies offsite. As for what ‘offsite’ means to you, you’ll have to decide that on your own.
Ok people, I’m outta here. You might not hear from me again until next year. Or you might hear from me tomorrow, I’m not sure yet.
These are some of the projects I plan to work on in the next two weeks:
Have a nice holiday, or whatever it is you might have in the next two weeks…
