The title “piddly sh*t” is appropriate on many levels.
The first is about a php script I worked on all afternoon. The reason for the script and the script itself are almost entirely unimportant. However, the script output was slightly wrong and giving me fits. That is until about 15 minutes ago when the truth dawned on me: the script wasn’t wrong, the right answer was wrong. The right answer being wrong is completely my fault. The script being right is entirely to my credit because it appears that the example script I was given was flawed from the start. Yay programming!
Other piddly-sh*t news will have to wait until later.
Any and all PHP I learned, I learned from dealing with WordPress. Same with CSS and html. More power to anyone who can use that stuff from scratch.
The only language I ever learned was Pascal–and I don’t remember a lick of it.
