When I last dealt with Wordpress, it seemed like enabling Caching was pretty straightforward.  Maybe I'm remembering wrong?

Hmm, I don't know of any way to enable caching in Wordpress itself. I found a plugin for it called wp-super-cache or something like that, but it requires some configuration (a couple of Apache modules, like mod_rewrite, among other things -- I typically disable all modules) unless I need them.

Maybe there's an easier way that I just didn't know about, though. I'll have to take a look.

It's just semantics, but both could be true. I submitted the story, they chose it and posted it.

Short of a picture of a penis, Slashdot will probably post most anything nowadays. A few years back it used to be much higher quality, but I remember reading some summaries now and then reading the actual article (which is a sin in and of itself) and wondering wtf the editors were thinking. Thank god you're not an idiot, though.

I agree that they post a lot of crap, but that doesn't mean it's easy to get a story posted. They get thousands of submissions each day, and you have to do something to make yours stand out. There are a few tricks to doing that, but most stories I post have a key phrase to get people's attention -- you just have to know which buttons to push.

I thank God every day I'm not an idiot. :)
