In October, we continued our internationalization efforts to make AO3’s interface and emails translatable. We also worked on usability improvements to a variety of site features, including clarified buttons for posting and editing works, improved password reset messages and forms, and more consistent redirects when logging in or out. Alongside these updates, we overhauled exchange participants’ Assignments pages and smoothed out other smaller issues across the site.

Special thanks and welcome to first-time contributors Cole Kelling, Cubostar, John Pork, and Tani!

Details

0.9.433

On October 1, we deployed improvements around password changes and resets. We also made some other small security fixes all around the site.

[AO3-2520] – We made it possible to delete comments with JavaScript disabled.
[AO3-5640] – When a Policy & Abuse admin tries to leave notes on an account without selecting an action to connect those notes to (e.g., banning the user or just making notes), they will now get a sensible error message.
[AO3-7023] – We fixed the invisible error you’d get if you tried to create a bookmark for an invalid external URL.
[AO3-7125] – The site we linked on our “Session Expired” error page to explain how to clear your browser cache removed their tutorial, so we are now linking to a different site.
[AO3-7127] – We bumped rexml from 3.4.1 to 3.4.2.
[AO3-7136] – Since the 8tracks website no longer exists, we removed it from the list of allowed sources for embedded media and the Terms of Service FAQ.
[AO3-7137] – We bumped the rack gem from 2.2.17 to 2.2.18 to deal with a security issue.
[AO3-6139] – The series we created in our automated tests didn’t always contain a work, which was confusing. We’ve updated them to always contain at least one work.
[AO3-6968] – AO3’s tag wranglers often need to access or post comments on tags, so we added links in the wrangling bins to make that easier to do.
[AO3-7038] – We restricted the ability to grant all current users invitations to admins with certain roles.
[AO3-7086] – We updated the wording and layout of the change password page (as well as some related error messages) to improve clarity and ease of use.
[AO3-7112] – To assist users resetting their password, we updated the instructions in the password reset email.
[AO3-7114] – We improved the error message you received when you tried to reset your password using an invalid or incorrect link so that it actually explains what went wrong.
[AO3-7126] – We improved the wording of the most recent login information in the user history accessible to admins.

0.9.435

On October 3, we upgraded to Ruby 3.4 and it all went smoothly! Except that our release script skipped a version number again, but that’s a very minor problem for a major upgrade.

[AO3-7145] – We upgraded Ruby from version 3.2 to 3.4 in multiple slow steps.
[AO3-7148] – To reduce deprecation errors with the Ruby 3.4 upgrade, we replaced the unmaintained unicode_utils gem with Ruby’s built-in Unicode case folding.

0.9.436

On October 9, we overhauled the page where a user’s challenge assignments are listed to make it easier to find incomplete assignments. We also fixed some style issues and did a lot of work for our ongoing project to internationalize the entire site!

[AO3-7029] – The Low Vision Default skin was missing the links to skip to and from the filters; the links are now present.
[AO3-7077] – We fixed some old, broken links tag wranglers saw when looking at the tag wrangling tools page.
[AO3-5349] – When someone fills your prompt from a prompt meme, you get an email. We’ve prepared this email for translation.
[AO3-6415] – To help gift exchange participants find assignments they need to fulfill, we’ve split Assignments pages into two pages: Unposted Assignments and Completed Assignments. Additionally, completed assignments are no longer counted in the sidebar, and all assignments are now listed in order of assignment date to ensure that your most pressing assignments are displayed first.
[AO3-7005] – Some buttons in iOS Safari had bold text, so we unbolded them to match all the other buttons.
[AO3-7020] – We’ve set up our work byline cache to be translatable without any risk of showing a cached translation to someone who isn’t using that locale. This is an important first step in preparing more cached content for interface translation.
[AO3-7043] – We migrated the filter taggings table, which helps keep track of which canonical tags apply to a work, so it can hold more rows and won’t run out of room in the future.
[AO3-7055] – We made the emails you get when someone leaves you a comment or edits it translatable.
[AO3-7075] – We added some extra padding around the “Last visited” text on works in your history.
[AO3-7103] – We updated the email you receive when Open Doors uploads a work of yours as part of importing an archive to AO3.
[AO3-7105] – Similarly, we updated the email you get if you don’t already have an AO3 account when Open Doors imports one of your works.

0.9.437

On October 13, we changed the buttons for posting, previewing, and editing a work to have clearer names and behave more consistently. We also fixed a number of small bugs.

[AO3-4181] – We made it so that pressing “Cancel” while editing a work redirects you to the specific work you were editing, instead of the page with all your works.
[AO3-6217] – We fixed the 500 error that occurred when an admin pressed “Cancel” on the page to edit a work’s tags or language.
[AO3-7018] – You will no longer receive a 500 error if you enter an invalid URL in a collection’s custom header URL field. Instead you will get an error message telling you what the problem is.
[AO3-7108] – We fixed a problem where the default skin could have the wrong attributes in development installs.
[AO3-7124] – For chapters with custom titles, the chapter title in the work download wouldn’t include the chapter number. We’ve added it now, so the chapter title always matches what you see on the website.
[AO3-7154] – We fixed a bug that was preventing Policy & Abuse admins from adding a custom note when banning a spambot.
[AO3-5996] – We’re renaming a database column on comments to more accurately reflect its purpose. As part of that, we’ve now started recording data in the column with the new name.
[AO3-7153] – We updated the rack gem from version 2.2.18 to 2.2.20 to address a security issue.
[AO3-6644] – Collection header images used to allow .jpg files but not .jpeg files. Now we accept both formats, since they’re the same type of image.
[AO3-7085] – We added a “Save Draft” button to the form for posting a new work and updated all of the buttons at the bottom of the forms for posting, previewing, or editing a work to be more clear and consistent.
[AO3-7096] – To make it easier to debug issues with collections’ unrevealed and anonymous settings, we’re now tracking when they were last updated. (Please note that this information is only intended for admins with database access and is not included on the site interface.)
[AO3-7106] – We moved the code for editing your profile from the users controller to the more fitting profile controller.

0.9.438

On October 17, we deployed a large refactoring of how we handle redirects back to pages that you came from, which made redirects after logging in and out much more reliable and also fixed some redirect-related 500 errors when accessing AO3 through alternative URLs.

[AO3-3011] – You will no longer get an error 404 if you hide a site banner and then log out.
[AO3-3719] – If you open a restricted work while logged out and then log in from the page you are redirected to, you will now be redirected back to the work instead of to your user dashboard.
[AO3-5842] – If you change your skin using the footer, you will stay on the page you were viewing with the correct skin applied, instead of being redirected to the page about the skin.
[AO3-5913] – When you log in for the first time, you will now only get a message saying you’ve successfully logged in instead of a confusing message that says, “Your account has already been activated.”
[AO3-6402] – When you delete an account and log in to a different one, you will no longer be directed to the “Account deleted!” page, which would make you wrongly think you deleted the account you just logged into.
[AO3-5949] – Across a variety of corners of AO3, we’ve changed where you get redirected to when you log in, log out, or cancel actions, so that it’s generally more logical to what you’re trying to do.

0.9.439

On October 20, we made several internationalization-related email updates and released a variety of smaller fixes.

[AO3-4309] – We prepared the subscription email for translation, which involved some complicated localization and caching problems all at once!
[AO3-5804] – Together with preparing the subscription email for translation, we also changed it to only show a chapter’s byline if it is different from the already listed work byline.
[AO3-5805] – And while we were at it, we also made sure the chapter byline in the subscription email really is the chapter byline, and not the work byline.
[AO3-7128] – We prevented collection maintainers with differing roles on a parent and subcollection from being listed twice in subcollection blurbs and profiles.
[AO3-7163] – We fixed a bug that prevented the live validation error messages for the fields on the edit profile page from showing up.
[AO3-7173] – We fixed an error 500 when you updated your filtered inbox (such as marking a comment as read) while accessing AO3 via an alternative URL.
[AO3-7162] – We upgraded the version of github/codeql-action from 3 to 4.
[AO3-7172] – We upgraded the redis gem from version 3.3 to 4.8.
[AO3-6733] – If a work or user has been reported to Policy & Abuse, AO3 won’t let you report them again for a period to prevent duplicate reports. We’ve made this period configurable so that it can be adjusted as needed.
[AO3-7063] – We prevented Safari on iOS from assuming that random numbers were phone numbers and turning them into links to call those numbers.
[AO3-7069] – To assist with testing, we made it possible to display specific works in our email previews.
[AO3-7113] – We updated the form for changing your password as part of a password reset to more closely match the form you see if you’re changing your password while logged in.
[AO3-7155] – We added a missing space between the text and the arrow on the “Previous Chapter” link at the bottom of multichapter works.

It can be tricky to keep track of all the puzzle pieces in play right now in the nation's political scene, but here's how I see them add up.

hannah

Tonight was my and my dad's last Friday night rooftop cider of the season. There's still going to be Friday night ciders - splitting a bottle, catching up, having a good time chatting - and with the nights coming earlier, it's going to happen in the apartment instead of the roof. I don't mind too much, not with how dark it was when we got there or how much darker it was when we went back down. It was honestly quite nice to look around and realize this was the last one. Nothing too special about it, no world-class cider or magnificent thoughts, just a good bottle and a nice time.

Let me amend that: nothing too special about what we did, something quite special about the night in a low-key mundane way, paying attention to the ordinary moments. It was a lovely sunset, fast-moving gray-on-slate tufts and spots of clouds, and by the time we went in, it was dark enough the moon was the brightest thing in the sky. So we stopped to look at it for a while. Just past half-full, the clouds were moving eastward. Almost there, almost there, the wind and the angle taking them just below the moon, enough to light up but not what we were hoping for, waiting more, waiting, a large piece comes by and not quite and maybe this next one - and in front of the moon it went, bright as a star, and we kept oohing and ahhing until it'd passed and the moon was shining by itself again.

As ways to end a season, it's a pretty good one.

2010. Seems like a fictional year, like maybe I read a book about it...

Six whole movies? WOW. (saw a couple others, but)

~Iron Man 2 - yes, franchise, but I have said it before, and I will say it again. The Iron Man movies, by themselves, are a very satisfying trilogy.
~The Karate Kid - soft reboot / separate track of the franchise. And I really enjoyed the energy Jaden and Jackie brought to it.
~Predators - Some bits were good. Did what the later Alien Prequels did though, and tossed Dark Horse canon on its ear so hard that I wasn't impressed.

~Takers - watch for the cast, for the personal dynamics. Plot and action was fine, but it was really the ensemble that made it for me.
~Machete - This was a damn fun movie to watch, and I don't usually do the grindhouse-style films.
~TRON: Legacy - how in Hades is this fifteen years ago?! Anyway, it's so good they never made more films after this one.

After an embarrassingly long time of sporadically reminding myself that I specifically bought a tiny low-powered laptop explicitly for use down in the living room (and used her accordingly for a while, until the spring Dayjob crunch threw me out of the still-forming habit), I've finally got Haruna up and running again. Will this help me leave fewer tabs open, or just result in them being split among more places?

Happy Hallowe'en and blessed Samhain, as applicable! It's a quiet one here. The wind and rain were wild for much of the day, but did calm down in the late afternoon, as hoped. Reports from online locals indicate that a lot of people got way fewer trick-or-treaters than usual (if any), although some spots seemed to get normal levels.

We don't really know what our neighborhood "normal" is, either in the area in general or along our condo corp's road, since for the last few years we've just been setting out the candy and refilling as needed. Some or most of it has generally vanished, but that doesn't say much about numbers vs. the likelihood that at least a few kids take it by the fistful. But tonight

scruloose decided to actually answer the door and hand it out (in a hazmat suit, because why not?) and not a single kid came by during the window of time when they were down there. (That said, they got down there somewhat later than would probably have been ideal, and the doorbell did ring once before that point [and go unanswered, but all of our lights were off until

scruloose was ready]. So if we try it again next year, earlier might make a bit of difference.)

I've mostly been chilling on the main level with the cats, who've been barred from the ground floor for the evening. (We had the window open during that span of time when more kids might've been on the move out there, but I heard only the occasional young voice echoing over from the main road.) After finishing up at Dayjob for the day, I put on my Hallowe'en onesie, and

scruloose made the first hot cocoa of the season, and we finally finished listening to Fugitive Telemetry before dinner was made and

scruloose bagged up candy. (;_;)

I hope you're all having a fun/peaceful time of it.

this is the post where i ~~complain~~ remind you that sunday is the day clocks go back one hour.

most things do it automatically, but stuff like ovens (the basic ones not connected to the internet) & microwaves won't.

also check the settings of any blogs, websites, or forums you belong to. some may have a thing to check/uncheck for daylight saving time. it's likely under the display setting.

i will spare you all a rant about about the uselessness of the whole concept. google stuff if you want to learn more.

Author’s Notes: I really struggled with putting this back up again (sorry I know I'm a flake) I have a love/hate relationship with it. But here it is.

This is a repost (it's all over the internet in various formats and languages) but it is mine.

I wrote this a looong time ago, before I really had a GREAT understanding of the naming conventions used in the untamed. Some of it might be incorrect.

Reccer's Notes:: Although November’s Mystery & Suspense theme would apply, I’m using Uncommon Settings to shoehorn in this beloved modern-with-magic paranoir fic in time for Halloween; the intrigue-haunted waterfront city of Lotus, patterned after Venice, is very much a character in its own right. (Note that, despite the geographical inspiration, nobody seems to have been whitewashed.)

medium blues has a history as cryptic and elusive as its subject matter: for various reasons (including having been targeted in the fandom’s 2020 cyberbullying scandal) the author—along with this fic—has periodically vanished and resurfaced under a succession of pseudonyms.

This post indexes my Kinktober limericks, all on the theme of Obi-Wan Kenobi/Anakin Skywalker feat. Padmé et al.

It is my ambition for November not to post an average of two poems a day, and thereby hopefully retain the few stragglers who are still subscribed to me on AO3 after the last two months of constant limericks. 对不起不对不起 (Sorry, not sorry.)

If, on the other hand, I have to write drabbles and limericks for people who request them as food bank donation thank-yous, I will spam the crap out of the AO3 and all my subscribers can just deal.

Yesterday, for example, I posted 4 drabbles for people who informed me that they had donated at least 25 USD worth of food or money to food pantries and/or banks in their area. If you like my writing and you can spare a quarter-Benjamin, support the food-insecure people near you and request something from me.

Happy Halloween! It's great weather for it today, very windy with a chill in the air. The forecast warned that decorations should be secured against gusts!

I am not sure where my focus is but it does not appear to be in my neighborhood this week. I'm glad the weekend is almost here.

I read three books in the past week and a half, and all three of them non-SFF. It's been a while since that happened! And probably will be a while after that: the next couple of books on my reading list are all SFF again.

Conclave, by Robert Harris: It's always tricky to read a book after watching the movie made based on it, but in this case it felt like both a good book to the movie, and that the movie was a good adaption of the book. It was very difficult not to see the characters from the movie while reading, even the main character who was the only one who got a different name in the movie. The book had a few details the movie couldn't fit and otherwise some minor changes, and I think if I felt more fannish about it comparing them would be very interesting but I'm not quite invested enough.

Into Thin Air, by Jon Krakauer: A gripping personal account of a Mount Everest expedition that ended in disaster.
Reading this was a bit strange because I kept getting a feeling of déja vu, but I can't recall reading similar books. I think I was probably remembering a couple of documentaries I watched as a kid (several of them featuring Reinhold Messner, probably - for some reason for some time I thought he was "just" the best Austrian (actually South Tyrolean/Italian) climber and didn't realize he had so much global fame.) Very little in the book I found actually surprising, though some of the details were even harsher than I'd expected, like how difficult it even is to eat that high up.
Funnily enough I kept thinking about the post-main-story snippet for the Superstition series that recalls how Jacks almost broke up with Luc because Luc decided he had to climb Mount Everest after retiring from the NHL, something Jacks considered extremely risky and irresponsible. And with good reason!
The book did a good job showing how a couple of not-so-egregious-on-their-own mistakes that under ideal conditions would have barely mattered added together under not-ideal conditions led to disaster. One of the most interesting parts of the book for me was the interplay between "on the mountain" and "the outside world." Reading a little more about the reception of the book afterwards, it's shocking how the survivors have seemingly had to justify their actions for the next years and decades and how fixated other people who weren't there and had little if any personal connections became on who was to blame.

Slow Horses, by Mike Herron: I actually don't remember where I got this recommendation - I might have just seen it in the "new books" category from the library? It's been a while since I read a spy thriller and I was in the mood for one for some reason.
It took me a while to get into this, and at first I was not even sure I would continue because I dislike "everyone is miserable and nobody likes each other" settings. But fortunately it gave me enough hope it would get better (and eventually did get slightly better) until the exciting spy and action parts kicked in, and those were indeed fun. I put a hold on the next part of the series just in case.

Dept of, what will they think of next (some of this is, as I remarked elsewhere, resuscitating Ye Good Ol' Victorian Quackerie - though, as we concurred, VIBRATORS ARE NOT VICTORIAN!!!): With the menopause dildo, we've officially reached peak menopause bollocks.

(Declaration of interest: I once did a podcast with the author.)

***

Dept of, well, on the topic of dildos, or at least, urgent phallicism: I spent a year dating ~~conservative~~ [frothingly alt-right] men:

Something about getting ready to go on these dates made me feel like I was 18 again — except now I had the ability to run professional-level background checks, which I did. Not because I was operating on preconceived notions but because the few peers I told about my mission encouraged me to. Given some of the vitriol against women in online alt-right groups, they felt I should treat every date as if it were a threat to my life. I came up with a routine: before a date, I’d tell at least three people in advance where I was going and what time they should expect to hear from me by. I enlisted a friend who’s a former Navy SEAL to be my unofficial security consultant.

And they wonder why women are not dating....

And that's before getting to meet the actual doozies who are, apparently, not even the worst types on the dating apps.

***

Dept of, let's have some better news, good news about snails (the snails that one thought had been mown down in the ONward March of Progress, or at least, building much needed housing):

the snails are OK. Nothing bad is going to happen to the poor little Whirlpool Ramshorn Snail, the endangered creature which our Chancellor unfairly blamed for stopping a housing development, causing me to get grumpy on social media. But in following up to try and see what actually happened, I found out a bunch of interesting – and in my view extremely heartening – stuff.
.... it was always a false dichotomy, it was always possible to have the houses and the snails too.

***

Dept of gilded snails in a very different space: From snails to street signs: Soho’s history revealed on a new digital map - the snails on the facade of L'Escargot Restaurant.

Dept of, gosh I have met (many years ago) the curator of this exhibition: New York City celebrates the “Gay Harlem Renaissance”

The War for Kindness: Building Empathy in a Fractured World by Jamil Zaki

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I read this book for my Faculty Learning Community. It's not specifically about pedagogy; instead it's from a psychological/sociological perspective and seeks to explain factors that generate empathy/kindness and those which prevent empathy/kindness. Zaki talks about experiments conducted on college campuses and about interventions designed to help white supremacists extricate themselves from hate groups. Really fascinating book.
