snej reported recently involving friends pages with single entries not reliably showing the right entry.I explained the current algorithm, where its flaw was, and how we started to fix it 5 months ago, but had to wait for a new table to populate before we finished.
I went to file a zilla bug on it, and include the URL in my lj_dev post.
In the middle of filing it, I pulled my computer's power cable out with my toe or something. (had my foot up on the tower, under my desk)
Anyway,
