The Cork Ladies mini marathon is on tomorrow, starting at 2pm! I’m going in to take a few photos of the crowd and competitors! Hope we get the weather we had today!
Drunk? Woooaaaahhh!
No, you really shouldn’t be drunk if you’re looking at this image. It’ll give you a bad enough headache as it is!

Summary Feeds – why no links?
If you’ve wondered why your RSS feed here doesn’t have any feeds, that’s because WordPress by default displays only summaries.
To show the full text and mark-up of your posts, go into Options->Reading and click “full text” for the option, “For each article, show:”
God damn bookmarklet, kills my browser (Mozilla Firefox 1.0 preview) more often than not. *grrr*
Oh woh is me! Comment Spam Already!
It didn’t take long for the comment spammers to figure out we’re running WordPress here. I got a dozen requests to moderate comments this morning. Mark did too, but he had turned off the notification in WP so there may be a bug there somewhere. Expect test comments to appear and disappear on this post over the next hour or so!
Later… Fixed it. There’s no check for the “moderation_notify” flag . Here’s how to patch your own WordPress system:
Edit wp-includes/functions.php and add the following lines to the function
wp_notify_moderator():
if( get_settings( "moderation_notify" ) == 0 )
return true;

George Bush in Canada.. what's that on the table?
See this photo? Looks like a beer in front of the US President.
They’re having a good time, looks like Bush makes a good impression of a flapping chicken!
MySQL: Finding the records in one table that are not in another table
OK, this’ll make users of “proper databases” cringe but because MySQL doesn’t support sub-selects you can’t do the most obvious way of selecting records in one table that aren’t in another. Here’s how it’s done, with a clear explanation of why it works!
select po.id
from po left join pn
on po.id=pn.id
where pn.id is null
Unfortunately, I can’t figure out how to filter the second table as I don’t want to select from the whole table, only a subset. Anyone solved this?
