Ever since I installed WordPress 2.0 and enabled Askismet, it has been working flawlessly and blocking comment spam like mad:
I still have to check the caught spam periodically, just in case it blocked some legitimate comment, which hasn’t happened so far. On the other hand, I don’t get that many legitimate comments, so it’s probably not a significant sample. But anyway: no false positives and no false negatives so far: Akismet rocks!
Why is it that everytime I try to upgrade from one stable Eclipse version (3.1 in this case) to a new one (3.2) I invariably end up having to do an install from scratch? Unzipping the new version over the old one resulted in lots of errors and non-functioning stuff, so I installed it all in a new directory, but then had to copy some plugins by hand and reinstall others using the Update Manager.
I also lost some of my preferences, like Java editing templates. Why aren’t those in my workspace directory, which is under my home directory and shouldn’t therefore get lost if I delete the old /Application/eclipse directory? The mind boggles.
Anyway, I’ve now got Eclipse 3.2 running on both my machines (the upgrade on the MacBook was relatively painless, being from a 3.2 milestone release instead of from 3.1). All is well that ends well.
