WordPress Upgrade

Posted on May 23, 2006 by woit

Just upgraded to a new version (2.0.2) of WordPress, and as far as I can tell everything is working normally again. If not, let me know. The one change I plan to make here soon is to try out some of the new anti-spam features. The ones in the older version of WordPress were much better at rejecting valid comments than identifying spam, we’ll see about the new version…

    Your blog is still malfunctioning. For example, the title should only say “not wrong” instead of “not even wrong”. Good luck with 2.0.3.

    Good! Your fancy collider-background is up and running again! (Thought we would never see it again 😉

    Cheers, Kasper

    Peter,

    Is there an easy way that you can change things, so that when we click on links, they open in a new window?

    That would be very convenient, given that you provide us with very good links on a regular basis.

    MathPhys, that is in the user side. You press the link with the right button of the mouse and then you gent the “open in a new window” command. If you are in a mac, and then you do not have right button, then you should press the modifier key in the left side of the keyboard and then click the mouse, the result is the same.

    Lubos, I usually only think of you as a psychologically unstable, mean-spirited crackpot, but even I laughed at your comment. Nicely done, even though you’re insane and evil. 😉 😉 😉 😉 😉

    Lubos writes (in reaction to a post on Cosmic Variance):

    ‘A theory is the best result of a scientific or rational analysis of the world you can dream about.’

    String theory is ‘not wrong’ because – judging by the number of citations to string theory – it is simply the BEST RESULT there is. It would be nice if string theory made contact with reality, but this isn’t really important anymore. As Lubos says, string theory helps you DREAM, and sleep soundly without worrying about reality.
