fail!
Ok, MetaTalk should be fixed and running like a top now. I made a couple fixes here and there to clean up unused database fields and to finally remove once and for all the need to store and pass along passwords in the clear. Now only encrypted cookie passwords get sent to and fro.
Now I need to finish changes to ask mefi and mefi proper along these lines.

Actually, I'm going to hold off on fixing some mefi stuff for a few hours, but it should be done tonight.

Don't stand too close to the Filter, or mathowie might fix you too!

Metafilter and Metatalk throw up Cold Fusion errors if you are logged out, but not if you are logged in (as of this post's timestamp!).

Hmmm... do things feel snappier to anyone else? Or perhaps it's simply because it's 3am.

Every once in a while Mefi "proper" refuses to show me the homepage. I get the CF error. I have cleared cache etc, but still run into this problem. I can apparently view posts with a direct link, but the homepage elludes me this morning.

Editing profile, get:

It seems to only happen using Opera (which, ashamedly, I still use sometimes), works in Firefox and didn't try IE (bout to go to work).

Is it a feature or a bug that when you click on user comments now, multiple comments in one thread are presented separately (ie, the FPP is repeated for each comment)?
I don't know if this is concomitant with the recent work being done, or if it's been this way for a while, but I can't access the front page, so have accessed some posts through old comments, and noticed this.
