• Upgrade method does not run upgrades

    I observed a bug in BerlinDB related to the upgrader, and reported it.

    At @DFS_Web, We focus on “proactive support”. We believe we offer the most value when we detect, and fix problems before it ever becomes a problem. To help us be more proactive, I built a plugin called FlareWP. We are going to sell this plugin on our website soon. The goal of FlareWP is to help site administrators better-understand what happens on the sites they maintain, and send timely notifications on things they need to know.

    I’m in a mood where I just want to gush. I’m so effing happy with where my life is right now. I love, and respect the people I work with at Sandhills. All of them are people who are nothing short of rockstars in my book. I literally pinch myself because I have conversations with people like @DrewAPicture and @JJJ about programming.

    In 2012, I spent 1 month of lunch-hour time writing a book on how to master layers, and layer masks in GIMP.

    I haven’t written content for GIMP in 7 years.

    I still get royalties for that short book.

    Do the thing, dammit!

  • Updates delete_metadata_by_mid to use table name, not the parsed meta table name.

    I submitted a pull request that fixes a bug in BerlinDB where metadata associated with a table was not getting deleted properly.

    Some things I love about

    1. Email screening 🔥🔥
    2. Ignore Thread
    3. Auto Labeling
    4. The entire contact interface Things I dislike about

    1. Imbox. It’s confusing, and is nothing like how an inbox works, why call it this?
    1. I can’t send mail from my other accounts. (Absolute deal breaker for me.)
    1. No snooze feature.

    I still think @Readdle’ Spark is the best email app.

  • Metadata does not get deleted when a row is removed.

    While doing some tests, I noticed that the metadata associated with a table was not getting deleted. It appears to be related to how delete_metadata_by_mid converts table names, and how we’re passing that table name in.

    Can anyone recommend someone who can design a logo for me? Do not recommend yourself – recommendations for other people only, please!

    Sometimes I wonder if @photomatt uses his spare time to monitor, and manually maintain @capitalp_dangit
