To cure sometimes, to relieve often, to comfort always.
Three days ago, I upgraded WordPress to 2.0. It seemed that there’s nothing wrong at that time. But today, I saw a post (zh-TW) about the compatibility between WP2 and SK2. Maybe because there are few comments and trackbacks in the site, there are no problems even I don’t patch it. But it seems an indeed problem, so I still installed the SK2-WP2 Compatibility plugin. Hope it’ll be ok from now on.
I just finished my last co-note in my student period. In order to advance this day, I recommended myself for one of the Academic Affair Chiefs of the next semester. (Academic Affair Chiefs don’t have to edit the co-notes, in principle. :p)
But I nearly got carzy with the last one. In fact, I didn’t like the teacher and his teaching style. He spoke in a low pitch which couldn’t attract us, and he spent a lot of time in explaining some very very basic concepts. I thought he assumed we know nothing. The most important is that he didn’t care the students’ feelings. One of my classmates went to the platform and asked him a question in the break time, but he said that Chinese students are too shy to ask questions in class and this is a bad habit, and then asked my classmate to ask the question when the next class started. I don’t think it’s a good behavior a teacher shoud have. A compromise may be: he could answer the question at the moment and when the next class started, he could tell the class about the question and the answer. Because of this event, I submitted the evaluation form with the worst judgements.
Huuu… Although I don’t like the teacher and what he taught, I still finished my part of the co-note. When everybody reads that, hope they won’t be angry of the unorganized contents.
I upgraded this site to WordPress 2.0. It didn’t took me more than 20 minutes. (In fact, it could be done in less than 5 minutes. I was too cautious. >_< )
The most important feature of WP 2.0 is the WYSIWYG editor. Some people said that it’s not easy to use, but it seems I got used of it very quickly, and I thought it is an important improvement for those who don’t understand HTML syntax very much.
There is no obvious difference in the layout, and it’s lucky that all the plugins I use still work after the upgrade. Hope there’s really nothing wrong, otherwise, I’ll get crazy fixing them in the Final-Exam-Period Exploration. :p
2005.12.28 UPDATE: I disabled the WYSIWYG editor because it’ll break the TachnoTag plugin. @_@
Yesterday, Kilo asked me to query CGMH about the result of the residents enrollment for her, because she doesn’t want to hear the bad news herself. I made the call in the coffee break time via Skype, on the wireless in the 2nd Teaching Building.
The connection quality seemed vary bad. The other side could hear my voice, but I could just intermittently hear his. Finally, I was referred to the Medical Teaching Division, and successfully asked them about the result of the residents enrollment. Unfortunately, Kilo‘s not enrolled.
Hope she won’t be too sad when I tell her the news tonight.
Last week, I changed my Gmail Notifier, a firefox extension, to Gmail Manager, which can manage several gmail accounts at the same time. I love the feature. But, the extension is too new that it doesn’t have a Traditional Chinese (zh-TW) locale files, but it has a Simplified Chinese (zh-CN) locale files and firefox will use zh-CN, which is similar to zh-TW.
I don’t like this to happen, so I just spent about 1 hour making the new locale files and sent the patch to the author. This is the first time I translate the locale files for an open-source software. Hope he will receive this and applies to the new release of Gmail Manager quickly. :p
I’m now at the Chinese Blogs Awarding Ceremony 2005, which is sponsored by Chinatimes.
The reason why I’m here is that about three days ago, I read a article posted by KJ. She said that any of the participants will have change to get a Acer laptop, so I signed up without any hesitancy. :p
There was something wrong before the ceremony began. The workers didn’t know about that the participants, not the finalists, can have chances to have a lottery of the Acer laptop. But finally after I confirmed the situation with the workers, it’s solved. :)
The hosts are Gon-Tou-Jian (工頭堅) and Miss Chian (sorry, I don’t know her name exactly. ^^a) Jia-Li Chuan, who are both bloggers. They play an important role in the whole ceremony. Time-controlling is very good. And some of the prize-awarding people are very famous, such as amarylliss, Ke-Sian Liu, Schee (although I’ve seen him before), etc. Although I sat in the back of the chamber, I’m very happy to see these famous people.
Some of the award-winners are not as I thought originally, but I think it should be fair.
It’s almost time to have the lottery, but I’ll just stop here. Hope the God will give me a surprise. :p
2005.12.17 UPDATE: Of course, I’m not lucky enough… ╮(╯_╰)╭ And the list of all award-winners is here.
