Comments, Templates, Work In Progress

Man At Work, PENNDOT style - put the sign up and do nothing for a few weeks.
Less than that, probably.
Eric updated MT for dcr.org and ATC this afternoon. He dug up this document, which so far seems to have addressed all of the errors that have cropped up as a result of the update.
As I opted to revert a bunch of templates, the comment experience presently looks like the MT defaults on dcr.org, dcr.viz, loc.dcr and the DCRSA. I'll get this fixed at some point in the near future. While it's not a high priority for today, getting this sorted falls under the same umbrella as getting comments retooled on the ATC website, so it'll be done within the next couple of days.

Ars Technica : Why the video pros are moving away from Apple. (src = ejp)
The new version of Final Cut Pro was controversial--there were significant changes to the Final Cut interface, a plethora of editing features were taken away, and worst of all, Final Cut Pro X was rendered unable to import projects from previous versions of the software."If we are taking the time to retrain people for a brand new software--which is what FCPX is--then we might as well use tools that are more industry standards here in L.A. like Avid and, now, Premiere Pro," Hancock told Ars. "There are too many choices and options for better, more professional options that keep us working and employable here in L.A. What's sad is that Apple was destroying Avid and really cutting into their revenue and market share. Now Avid, by default, is going to revert back the to industry standard."

Better Now, Stronger Now

Reading through old (way, way old) blog entries, it's clear that I used to be overflowing with hate, spite, hate, negative emotions, hate, negativity and general badness.
At some point (I'm guessing it was late Q4 2009 or later) that hate dissipated at speed. I'm now much more what I'd describe as "a bit of a grump," with a view of the universe that bears more of a resemblance to a pulled muscle than the bedsore hemorrhoid of the aughts.

I've applied the current dcr.org flavoring to my old blog. This is in keeping with the updates to PPAC and the DCR strip archive. Same basic formatting for all of them, each with its own trick or quirk or think-through separate from the challenges of loc.dcr and old.loc.
I'm really getting to know Movable Type. Given that my day job involves a good amount of WordPress, it's been a nice change of pace.
