Do you just sit at the keyboard and Type Code? I admire you, and your uncanny knack at understanding this binary jibberish. It's all I can do to log on and find my "favorites" file.

woo hoo
yeah i read code.
i found it because in the old blathers (go to: the_way_blather_was), there was a number at the bottomline, but actual blather didn't. so.. i thought how the fuck they may be accurate on that shit?
and i read code.
and voilá, i hope you like it.
it's my gift to the blather_world.
that and the blather_oracle.

i wonder if what it would look like if a graph was made and the number of entries was one variable and the time was another.
well i know what it would look like but i would still like to see it.

oh yeah

i found a blather secret. if you look past all the recent blathes, you sometimes come across buried blathes that no one has touched. some of them from 'skites who blathed a few times and promptly disappeared. some of them even say something. you can admire them like pebbles, spit over your shoulder and chuck 'em in the river.
sploosh.

39772. it doesn't change every time because you need to run the rebuild script. I think it's set up to do it nightly.
|
040224
|
|
... |
|
|
u24
|
actually, it's count.pl that creates numwords and numentries. rebuild.pl relinks new words.
In fact (and someone who knows perl might want to check this out) looking at lines 195 to 200 of blather.pl. It would appear that blather will only function fully until 2049. At least, dates after 2049 will be reported as 1950...1951...etc instead of 2050...2051...etc.
someone wanna verify this, and the effect this will have on blather for me?

you're right
but the only function that's affected
is showday
which i rarely use anyway
but it's kinda funny
that they would use ($y < 50)
since blather started in 1998 anyway
anyone who uses showday
has until 2049
(i've confirmed this in the perl code
and by going to:
http://blather.newdream.net/cgi-bin/blather?showday;day=490915
and
http://blather.newdream.net/cgi-bin/blather?showday;day=490915
where it shows the full sql query as the first line
in the html source)
or until the blather_gods
once again intervene
and save us from damnation
