Q: Jquery Login Function doesn't work if user insert wrong credential twice I have this function:
$(function() {
    $("#loginform").submit(function(e) {
        e.preventDefault();
    }).validate({
        rules: {
            username: {
                required: true,
                email: true,
            },
            password: {
                required: true,
            }
        },
        // Specify the validation error messages
        messages: {
            username: {
                required: "please, enter your email",
                email: "This is not a valid email!",
            },
            password: {
                required: "please, enter your password",
            }
        },
        submitHandler: function(form) {
            $("#loginform").append('

Logging in ...

');
            $("#loginform").append('

');

            $(".redFormButton").hide();

            var username = $('input[id=username]').val();
            var password = $('input[id=password]').val();
            var token = $('input[id=token]').val();

            $.ajax({
                url: '/processLogin.php',
                type: 'post',
                dataType: 'json',
                data: {'username': username , 'password':password, 'token':token},
                success: function(data) {
                    if (data == true) {
                        $(".loggingIn").remove();
                        $(".spinningWheel").remove();
                        window.location.replace("index.php");
                    } else {
                        $(".loggingIn").remove();
                        $(".spinningWheel").remove();
                        $(".redFormButton").show();
                        $("#loginform").append('

the username or password is wrong. Please Check Again.

');
                    }
                },
            }); // end ajax call

            return false;  //This doesn't prevent the form from submitting.
        }
    });
});

this works perfectly either when the user use the correct credentials or when they are wrong but if the user click again login leaving the wrong username and password, the "spinning wheel" keep turning without going any further.
processLogin.php, the first time (when the data are wrong) return false but the second time it doesn't return anything:
<?php

require 'core/init.php';

if ($_POST) {
    $username = filter_var($_POST['username'], FILTER_SANITIZE_EMAIL);
    $password = filter_var($_POST['password'], FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING);
    $token = filter_var($_POST['token'], FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING);

    if (Token::check($token)) {
        $user = new User();
        $remember = true; //this is intentional as it wasn't working
        $login = $user->login($username, $password, $remember);

        if ($login) {
            $result = true;
            echo json_encode($result);
        } else {
            $result = false;
            echo json_encode($result);
        }
    }
} else {
    Redirect::to('index.php');
}

*******UPDATE***************
the problem is given from Token::check($token). The second times that the script run for some reason it return false. If I remove that it always works.
<?php require 'core/init.php';

if($_POST){
    $username = filter_var($_POST['username'], FILTER_SANITIZE_EMAIL);
    $password = filter_var($_POST['password'], FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING);
    //$token = filter_var($_POST['token'], FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING);

        $user = new User();
        $remember = true;
        $login = $user->login($username, $password, $remember);
        if($login) {
        echo 'true';
            } //if true login
        else{

        echo 'false';

    }
}

Token Class is:
<?php
class Token {

    public static function generate() {
        return Session::put('token', md5(uniqid()));
    }

    public static function check($token) {
        $tokenName = Config::get('session/token_name');

        if(Session::exists($tokenName) && $token === Session::get($tokenName)) {
            Session::delete($tokenName);
            return true;
        }

        return false;
    }
}

any idea how I can keep using Token?

A: try this trick
at this line change
   var username = $('input[id=username]').val();
   var password = $('input[id=password]').val();
   var token = $('input[id=token]').val();

    $.ajax({
        url: '/processLogin.php',

To
 var makhash =  (new Date).getTime();
 var username = $('input[id=username]').val();
 var password = $('input[id=password]').val();
 var token = $('input[id=token]').val();

        $.ajax({
            cache: false,
            url: '/processLogin.php?hashcode='+makhash,

John Prine - Fair & Square (Expanded Edition)
Home / John Prine - Fair & Square (Expanded Edition)
John Prine takes his own sweet time dancing with his muse and truly writes what's in his soul. So if it takes him a little longer to write the songs that capture moments and reveal the gently folded human truths that bind people all together, it's always worth the wait.
During John Prine's nine-year interval between albums of original material, fans who hailed his recovery from cancer wondered whether he'd ever return to full creative speed. Here, on Fair & Square, Prine puts doubts to rest with an album that ranks with the finest of an inspired career. At the 48th Grammy Awards, Fair & Square won the Grammy Award for 'Best Contemporary Folk Album'.
Highlights include the big heart of "Glory of True Love", the socially conscious bite of "Some Humans Ain't Human", the reflective grace of "Taking a Walk", and the the wry whimsy of "Crazy as a Loon". The album also reflects Prine's first attempt at producing himself, with the warmth of his rough-hewn vocals finding a comfortable fit among the organic, largely acoustic arrangements.

Three years of crisis have taken a huge toll on the people of the Central African Republic (C.A.R.). Half of the population – nearly 2.5 million people − faces hunger. This means that one in two people does not know where their next meal is coming from. Families have been forced to sell what they own, pull their kids out of school, even resort to begging. People in the C.A.R. have reached the end of their rope, and they need support more so now than ever before.


Portfolios are a great opportunity to show your potential clients and customers what you have created and what you are capable of. It can also be a playground for ideas – the way that a portfolio itself is presented, the interaction possibilities it allows and it's uniqueness can be a great way to show your identity and your creativity.
The following collection has some wonderful examples of ways portfolio items can be displayed.
This example, is a textured, black'n'white, stunning portfolio and blog of the LegWork Studio, based in US. The website has a really usable "roll-over" effect, so when rolled over a link, a custom image is displayed.
The currently website is an elegant online portfolio and blog of the developer & designer Carson Shold. Carson Shold has a beautiful and usable roll-over effect. The area rolled gets dark, but when the mouse reaches the featured project section, it displays the image double-sized.
Noxie Creative uses a slick portfolio with a nice hover effect. Clicking next or previous lightens up the new portfolio item. It's subtle and clean.
A great digital artist's portfolio with a unique slider that opens when a project is clicked.
Dreamer Lines is a creative, online website owned by the Latvian designer, Janis based in Riga, who works for some digital marketing agencies. The portfolio is displayed in a beautiful tab way fashion that allows to see works from the different areas of design.
This is a beautiful, creative example of a portfolio created and owned by Orman Clark, a 27 year old web designer and "seo geek". The portfolio is made up of floating screens that move along with the mouse.
The current website is a sketchy-looking, beautiful online portfolio, blog, and fun place created by the creative designer called "kidd81". Watch the cute slide effect when hovering over a portfolio item.
The current website, is a usable, elegant and beautiful webpage of the Tea Round application, available for iDevices. The portfolio items show a blue overlay with some extra information on hover. When clicked it goes to a huge slider when the details of the portfolio item can be viewed. You can also use the keyboard arrows to navigate through the slider.
HostHorses is a tiny web design agency formed through the love of designing and building wonderlicious websites. When hovering over the portfolio items, some info slides in from the top and a "view" button slides in from the bottom, very slick effect.
Think Fa makes it's portfolio items pop by making the content of the items stick out. They literally "stand out" because of that tiny detail. Also, the way the project gets presented is very beautiful.
This website with a great use of colors and beautiful interface, is the online portfolio of the creative agency & digital production studio called Design Royale. The portfolio website displayed above, has a nice "roll-over" effect for the majority of the links placed on the site, as well as a stunning slider.
Red Tiki is the online portfolio of an experienced team of animators and web designers based in Australia. Their portfolio display is definitely unique, but careful, it bites!
A very interesting way of showing each individual portfolio item in it's unique way: with a custom style.
Besides being a beautifully crafted web site, the portfolio items are a slick grid with a very neat slide effect on hover.
An example of a horizontal layout that shows the portfolio items with a nice hover effect. Hover over the arrows to scroll horizontally.
Here the portfolio items simply expand and one can scroll through them. A simple but effective way to show the portfolio.
Click on the tags of this "Folio" to see a beautiful reordering and appearing effect of the items.
In this portfolio we have an interesting "blur effect" when hovering over an item.
In this portfolio of tinyfactory, when clicking on a portfolio item, a more detailed description of the project slides up from the bottom.
Images from the post are broken here… but the post is nice(clicking on links).
Thanks for the honorable mention 🙂 But we're in Western Australia (WA) not the USA.
Is a paradox than you write a post about portfolio displays at the same time you have some of the best examples of image galleries and visual effects that currently exist on the internet, I want to thank you for your amazing tutorials and code in the name of all those we love your visual work.


Solange: Certain Art Institutions Imply That 'As a Black Artist You Should Just Be Happy to Be There'ARTnews The artist was speaking in Chicago in a public event with writer Britt Julious.
The cover of Solange's 2016 album, A Seat at the Table.
In a talk with writer Britt Julious at the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago earlier tonight, the musician and, more recently, performance artist Solange, who has performed in museums including the Guggenheim in New York, had some harsh words for certain unnamed art institutions.
Tickets for the talk went on sale last last month and sold out in just 15 seconds, according to the organizers. The evening conversation was the latest in a series of projects that Solange has staged in the visual art world, which have included an interactive piece she released with Tate Modern a few weeks ago in conjunction with its "Soul of a Nation" show.
Next month, Solange will perform in Marfa, Texas, at the Chinati Foundation, which was established by minimalist sculptor Donald Judd and which houses many of his sculptures. During tonight's talk, she discussed her admiration for Judd's art and her excitement for her upcoming event.


When companies advertise selling one, two, five, etc pounds of worms, what actually weighs one, etc pounds? How much is worm weight and how much is bedding?
Approx how many worms per pound? …..funny question…..
Every dealer is different, but I can tell you what SHOULD weigh 1 lb, 2 lb etc – it should be the worms themselves. ie actual worm biomass. It should NOT be worms and bedding, unless clearly stated on the website (I have yet to find a site that includes this info).
The bedding used for shipping – very often moistened peat moss – can weigh a fair amount on its own, so when included in the weight for pricing purposes the customer will obviously receive a lot fewer worms. In my opinion there should be at least a 1:1 ratio of bedding weight to worm weight for optimal shipping, but the bedding weight definitely should not be included in the price. In other words, if you order 1 lb of worms, the package you receive should be more than 2 lbs (obviously there is the box and packing material to consider here as well).
That being said, depending on the length of the trip and the time of year etc, there may be a reduction in weight during shipping due to water loss (worms are mostly water after all), but this typically won't be too significant if the worms are packed well and the trip is relatively short.
The practice of including bedding weights in pricing (or just dishonest weights in general) helps to explain why worm pricing can be all over the map. My advice is to be wary of dealers with very low pricing unless you've dealt with them before or know someone else who has. Really when it comes down to it, the best approach is to use caution when dealing with suppliers you are unfamiliar with. I'm not saying this to slam my "competitors" by any means – all I am suggesting is that you try to get to know the dealer a little (or find reviews online) before buying from them.
If they have a website, perhaps send them an e-mail and ask them a few questions. Their response time and helpfulness can be pretty good indicators right off the bat. If they don't bother replying or they seem abrasive in any way, it probably just isn't worth it. Some dealers aren't all that comfortable online, and that's ok – in that case try giving them a call if they have a number posted somewhere.
As far as how many worms there are in 1 lb, a fairly good estimate is 1000 (of various sizes) for Red Worms. I've had large Red Worms that seemed to be in the 800/lb range, but I've also had populations of smaller worms that would have been closer to 2000/lb. Maturity and the overall health of the worms can obviously play a pretty important role. For European Nightcrawlers, the counts are generally somewhere between 300 and 400 per pound (gives you an idea of how much bigger these worms are).
Thanks for the informative video on composting with bins! It helped a lot. Now I am probably the least ideal candidate to start composting, but the benefits out weigh my concerns. First, how big do the red worms get? It is just me and my toddler and we are on a semi vegetarian diet. Since our bin will be inside, I'm more concerned about odor and other pests my composting bins may attract. I have gloves, so I've gotten over having to handle them with my bare hands. I must sound awful, but your expertise and enthusiasm gives me motivation to start composting. I think I can do this 🙂 I can add the castings to my container gardening project. Again, how big do the red wigglers get?

Lockdown lifted at Jackson State after active shooter report
Published 1:56 pm Wednesday, December 4, 2019
JACKSON (AP) — Jackson State University's campus was placed on lockdown Wednesday after someone was shot and wounded there, prompting an active shooter alert.
A non-student was shot in the leg across the street from the student center, university spokesman L.A. Warren said. A university police officer at the scene confirmed there was a single shooter, who also was not a student. The officer said one person was injured and brought to a hospital with injuries that were not life-threatening.
The university initially sent out a tweet telling everyone on campus to take shelter. It later said the lockdown had been lifted and there was no longer a threat.
The historically black university is located just west of downtown Jackson and has about 7,000 students.

Hardware problem: USB connector is loose, charging sometimes stops, anyone else has the same?
It seems that USB connector is a bit loose. Usually I have to double check that the device is really charging. Also it feels very weak and I'm afraid it might actually break at some point since its used daily.
EDIT: The problem is that the cable part (connector) doesn't go "all the way in". When plugged in, you can clearly see a part of the silver connector and it is not tightly fitted, actually pretty loose. Same with N9. But not with Iphone, which has different type of a connector.
I haven't had any problems yet, but it does feel loose and fragile.
Yes mine is quite lose too but charges without a problem. Have you tried a different lead on your charger. The one that came with my Jolla gave up working a few weeks back. Charger unit and phone are fine though.
yes I do. If I hold the phone while charging the charge stops an resumes few seconds later.
Might it be due to the TOH being curved at the top, making the usb connector stay out of its fully inserted position by a couple millimeters?
Lose USB micro ports are a general problem with lots of devices, usually due to a questionable PCB layout (I've not looked at the Jolla PCB, though). The usual reason is that the PCB area, where the solder pads are located (those holding down the micro USB cage) is about the same size as the pads. Thus there is no margin of additional material stabilizing the cage adequately for the mechanical forces exerted on the connector.
I was also surprised to find my Jolla uncharged the next morning. Connector loose. I found that different cables have slightly different connector sizes, some work better with the Jolla. But something can be improved with Jolla's USB port in a future HW revision. All these cables work fine on my old HTC.
Micro-USB is specified for over 10'000 insertions, and the design ensures the cable wears out before the device. For me this sounds more like a broken cable (I had to replace cables in the past because they were worn out). Have you tried a different cable/charger?
With N900 the problem was the soldering breaking apart.So, is the soldering included in your 10.000 inserts. I already filed those small hooks in that connector flat.
I am always careful with micro-USB sockets, they seem very fragile despite the specs. I never had a problem with my N900.
The cage might be specified for 10000 insertions, but that's about it. Everything else is likely to die sooner.
I still use my N900 on a daily basis. The micro-USB socket is still fine, while I had to replace the flexible cable which is connecting the screen and the keyboard half (Right now it seems to break apart for the second time). So, at least in my case, the connector is not limiting the lifespan of the device (the average user would have thrown away a device with a non-working display or speaker instead of taking it apart and replace the cable).
I have this problem with two JP1, getting worse every day. Only chance to charge is to bend the usb-cable to the connector. Are there any usb-connectors to replace? Whitch connectors where used at the jp1? Does anyone know what devices uses the same connector?
I believe any general phone repair shop can fix this.
These for me have always turned out to be poor cable issues.
If the plastic case of the micro usb connection end of the cable has any flex in it whatsoever it is going to slowly flex over time giving erractic connection that usually needs some bending to correct. This is almost always the case for cheep micro usb cables.
This is one time when price actually is important unfortunately. If the plastic closing the connection to cable is solid i.e. no flex in that part, then It's probably going to be good.
Several times I met broken or desoldered connector pins (the pins of the connector soldered to the phone motherboard, not the ones that make contact to the cable).
Similar problem happened to me. Soldering of one pin was broken. Problem was solved by resoldering the connector pins.
I had it with specific charger, seems like a problem in the charger itself. when happened, the charger got warmed, after cooling it, it worked OK for few hours.
For me the cable supplied by jolla caused the problem (like loose connection/connector) from the beginning with my JP1. I am still using the charger and cable from my CAT B12 Phone. Somewhere i also read, that the cable from jolla is very cheap and is causing such problems. Thats why i bought a replacement cable. This cables are also working very well here.
PS: I treat such Micro-USB-Connectors like a raw egg and i don't like them ;-).


NOTE: This works whenever your script does not contain GO. If it does, a solution is to also turn on SQLCMD mode on and preface your script with a line «:ON ERROR EXIT» so that subsequent statements aren't executed outside the transaction's scope.
For those who use the winning combination of Access as the front-end client to SQL Server, chances are that you've had to use SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) for designing & manipulating SQL Server objects. For small firms with no IT departments or no DBA, you may also be responsible for maintaining all aspects of SQL Server; from maintaining the data and creating stored procedures to backups. Now before you think I'm going to talk about backing up, that's not what this is about – it's already assumed you're backing data up. To learn more about backups see this post by Juan.
SSMS is a real joy, it's powerful and easy to work with, but working with production data has it's hazards, what if an errant query wreaks havoc on your data?
The client asks you to add a new row to a lookup table and also modify a single record in the main table to use the new key from the lookup table. Simple enough!
The message returned is «(12371 rows affected)». Ah, perf…. wait!! 12371!!! There's supposed to be only one! Geez, I used the wrong column in the WHERE. We now have to undo the accident.
Time to restore that backup?
Notice how the COMMIT and ROLLBACK commands are commented out with double dash. When I execute the commands only BEGIN TRANSACTION is used, allowing me to evaluate the outcome of my query and decide later if I want to commit the results or roll them back. This allows me the time to make sure all is well before making a final commit of the data.
Even though you may have executed a SQL statement then edited it and executed it again, it's considered to be still in the same connection and therefore in same scope, allowing you to roll back the data at a later time.
2) You can execute parts of SQL commands in the query window by highlighting.
Together, what it means is that by prefacing any SQL script with a BEGIN TRANSACTION, you can ensure that nothing is actually written until you've had a chance to review the effects the modification had. Going back to the scenario above, when we see that 12137 rows instead of 1 row was updated, all we need to do is then highlight ROLLBACK and execute it, then the mistake is undone. So instead of sinking at least an hour of restoring backup and getting everything back in their place, it's just a highlight & click worth of fixing.
I alluded earlier that each query window (e.g. each individual tab in the SSMS) has their own connection. This implies that you shouldn't try to execute queries on the same objects between two query windows or you may get unexpected results. For example, don't modify data in tblCustomers in window 1 and window 2 and expect it to rollback for both. Better to limit your objects to just one window. This is also true when you wish to verify the results, (perhaps doing a SELECT after an UPDATE for instance), you have to place the SELECT inside the same query window where you do the UPDATE so it remains in the same transaction scope and therefore can see the changes the UPDATE made without having to actually commit the changes.
It's great for making design changes to objects, too!
SQL Server allows transactions even for any design changes we may make to any objects such as tables, views or stored procedures. To guarantee a smooth upgrade, this is what I typically do when I'm working in the beta database: Whenever I change a SQL Server object, I right-click the object in the object explorer and use «Script <object> As…» to either generate CREATE (if it's a new object) or ALTER (if it's an existing object) and then place them in a single script with the same preface. I also remove the USE statement from the generated script to prevent the script changing databases when running. When the beta database has been tested and the changes are ready to be rolled out into production, I run the script against the production database and when it has succeeded in entirety, highlight & execute the COMMIT statement so I know that all design changes will be applied at once.
Generally speaking, the set of SQL statements that cannot be wrapped in a transaction tend to be those that operates at database or full-text index level. For precise listing of statement that cannot be wrapped in a transaction, consult this page.
As alluded to in the start of the post, it's just one more failsafe mechanism in addition to keeping regular backups and maintaining a separate copy for development & testing and a solid software lifecycle strategy. It can't possibly be a be-all, end-all solution, but it certainly can make a difference between a highlight & click and a wasted hour of restoring backup.
To see another strategy in safe guarding your data, take a look at the audit table technique's described in Juan's post here and here.

SMARTS Farm will be displaced from 13th and Broadway.
273 affordable housing units are coming to the East Village. On the northeast corner on 13th and Broadway, the new homes will take their place amid developments by companies that chose to pay the in-lieu fee instead of providing affordable housing inside their projects. Construction is scheduled for mid-2020 and is expected to be complete by 2022.
The new high-rise housing will displace current tenants SMARTS Farm. A well-developed plot with a winding path, a solar panel installation, and thriving plants, the community garden hosts plots, field trips, and classes. Healthy lemon trees and chile plants line the chain link fence along Broadway.
Father Joe's Villages partnered with Chelsea Investment Corporation to construct studio and 1-2 bedroom apartment homes especially for those who have experienced homelessness. Father Joe's will coordinate onsite supportive services, such as medical care, vocational training, and counseling.
On the ground floor, the fourteen-story mixed-use building will house a Head Start center for children up to five years old.
Plans for the new building include underground parking, outdoor barbeque and picnic areas and a rooftop deck with greenery. Architect Joseph Wong Design Associates, the firm that designed Atmosphere on Fourth, worked on the project.
Adjacent to the site of a new fire station for the neighborhood, the City had already set aside the property for affordable housing. Father Joe's Villages plans to break ground on another affordable housing project at 14th and Commercial the same year.

This is all news to the neighbors , for years now the CCDC website has told us a 6 story market rate rental building was slated for this spot. In addition to being frightening news for owners of adjacent units, it is ill advised to build a high rise public housing project at this site for everybody involved. First of all, there are the tens of thousands of needy families. Since this building only provides a few hundred units, virtually all of them will be shut out of the tiny number units available. High rise buildings are the most expensive to construct (check price of steel lately)? and you could build far more two story townhouses in a lower density area for the cost of this eyesore. In addition, land is less expensive just a few miles to the east, so selling this parcel to builders ready , willing and able to construct market rate luxury units on it would be much wiser. The proceeds could be used to build many times the number of units this will house. It would negatively impact far fewer people in a low density neighborhood for obvious reasons. High rises are also the most expensive to maintain. This is why are scores of these types of buildings only a few decades old are being torn down back east as I write, Once the police and elevator repairmen refuse to enter because it is too dangerous, they have to be torn down. Chicago and St. Louis learned this years ago (google Cabrini Green) and we should learn by their mistakes.
This unsightly view obstructing project will not only destroy views of adjacent units, it will be real estate poison for countless condo owners nearby, many of whom are on fixed incomes themselves. They have frequently put the lions share of their lifesavings into their home, and to see the value plummet can be heartbreaking. Many will be fearful of living near or even visiting a walkable area with this in it, as anyone who has lived near "the projects " can attest. In Chicago we used to pay higher cab fees to "go the long way" and avoid the projects, even fearful of driving by them. This area is one of our cities most expensive and high density neighborhoods, and has the most potential. We should not blow it by concentrating public housing where it will turn off homebuyers and developers alike. After world war two Germany decreased regulations on builders to speed up construction and lower their costs. They succeed spectacularly and now have the best housing stock in Europe. The UK built public towers like the one described above, and today they are imploding them to build decent housing for the countries burgeoning and frustrated home buyers. They now have one of the worst housing shortages in Europe, and we should learn from their mistakes.

Affordable housing is not housing for the poor. "Affordable" is defined as housing that is 85% of the market rate. With the average rent around $1,800 a month the "affordable" rate would be around $1,500. There is no affordable rental units for the poor. Housing for the poor are Section 8 housing funded by the taxpayers. Many San Diego employers pay $12 an hour which, if you read their job descriptions, they think is a great wage. $12 an hour is $2,000 gross which leaves very little to live on after you deduct the "affordable" rent. The problem is not the affordability of rent/housing but the lack of adequate pay and benefits for the hourly worker.
Dec. 8, 2018 @ 11:06 a.m.
CORRECTION : The proposed high rise project in the able article is actually east of 13th street not west, so the CCDC website actually did not depict a market rate building on this site.
However, high rise housing for the poor is ill advised for multiple reasons including: 1. It is the most expensive to build and maintain, and therefore you could provide far more units if you built one or two story. Two story townhouses are also more practical for needy families. 2. Scattered , lower density projects impact less people than in a concentrated area, mitigating the NIMBY factor. 3. We have builders ready, willing and able to construct luxury units on this site. These would add to the tax base and facilitate development of the area as they would not turn off buyers and developers alike. We should not spoil the areas potential. 4. There is already an unsightly high rise project a few blocks west of this one, concentrating the poor in what could be a great area is foolish. 5. Proceeds from this valuable land could be high, that money should be used to build far more units a few miles to the east 6. They are tearing down projects just like these worldwide as I write : Cabrini Green in Chicago, multiple in the UK, including the one that just caught fire and killed people. They are learning that high rise, concentrated public housing is too expensive to maintain and is doomed to failure. Note the HOA fees are usually double in a high rise comp to two level for this reason. In NYC, they are converting thousands of units of public high rise to private market rate, after expensive, massive renovation, that should tell you something.
The list could go on and on but, a quick google search of the topic would be advised for our leaders, I am not sure they know the history of projects like this over the past half century, we should learn by others mistakes.
Dec. 9, 2018 @ 6:27 a.m.
Not to worry our "leaders" have no sense of history as they think their ideas are new.

While I don't know the specifics of this project, I strongly support adding affordable housing developments to all areas of the city, which definitely includes Downtown and Uptown neighborhoods. Diversity of all kinds is the strength of our city. Also, income level doesn't determine ones preference for neighborhood types, we should be building center city apartment towers and town homes in less dense neighborhoods. Also, high rises in downtown make lots of sense as the future residents for the most part won't have cars, so the proximity to public transportation matters.
I live in Bankers Hill and would welcome a project like this in my neighborhood. I feel adding the this type of housing to the luxury buildings being built will help keep the economically diverse neighborhood I love from continuing to evolve into an affluent ghetto.

"They are tearing down projects just like these worldwide as I write : Cabrini Green in Chicago … "
Did you write this well into the last century? That was many decades ago. I don't know how you compare these projects, designed for a different purpose by different people for different people long ago. Cabrini Green in Chicago was vastly larger than this project in San Diego.
I visited Cabrini Green on business. Let me tell you what it was like. First, you park your car. Try to find a place that looks safe (not gonna happen). Then walk a half mile or so to the building you want (if you can identify it, they all look the same). Then wait for an elevator (hope it is working). Get in the elevator with the other 'interesting' people who have been waiting. When the door closes, notice that there are no lights inside. There also is no indication of what floor you are coming to. When the door opens, run outside for an indication of what floor you are on, and run back in before the elevator leaves. When it is your floor, pause for a moment to look down on the area from the balcony. Note the burned out hulks of cars, debris, people 'hanging out' and looking dangerous. If you are white, notice how unusual that is in this place. Now look for the apartment you want. You can guess the missing numbers by counting from those that still have numbers. Notice the barred windows and steel plated doors. Knock on the door you want and note how it hurts your knuckles. Wait for a frightened voice inside to reply.
I don't expect this new building to be like that. I do expect that you have a hidden agenda that makes you personally not like this project. Honesty is the best policy.

The other afternoon, Eugene came home from work to find me measuring things into a bowl. "Oh good," he said as he stopped to give me a kiss. "I'm just so hungry." Then, upon taking a closer look at the contents of my bowl, he stopped.
"Chocolate?! This isn't dinner food!"
"No," I admitted. "This is dessert, but there's a meatloaf in the oven."
There were no complaints later when, after the meatloaf, Eugene helped himself to several spoonfuls of the truffle ganache as I molded the rest into little treats. I tucked the results into an air-tight container and popped them in the fridge for future snacking.
If you're looking for an interesting hostess or Christmas gift, consider pairing these with my espresso cocoa truffles and presenting in a pretty gift box or cellophane bag tied with ribbon.
Combine chocolate chips, peanut butter, and coconut oil in a large bowl and mix well. (It will be lumpy.) Set aside.
In a small saucepan, combine heavy cream and salt. Set over low heat and bring just to a boil. Immediately remove from heat, stir in vanilla, and pour over the chocolate and peanut butter mixture.
Once it's firm to the touch, use a cookie scoop or tablespoon to scoop out balls of the ganache. Roll in your hand then drop into the shredded coconut and roll to coat. Place on a parchment lined tray or plate and repeat with rest. Chill one hour before serving. Store in the refrigerator or an air-tight container for up to 2 weeks. Can also be frozen.

Take a photo of an interesting shadow, in this case it's my lantern!
The photo safari I embarked on was throughout my house (Considering the amount of useless items I own). Within the fifteen-minute time span, I was able to snap eleven photos, excluding those that capture the time when I started and ended the safari. This was a lot of fun…but I sure have a mess to clean up around my house.
You have some epic photos. My favorite is the photo dominated by one color, all the blue items fit together so well. It's really nice!
*Also need to comment on the date photo between your rilakkuma and jiji (I think?) plushies. It's just so cute! Totally jealous you have them!
Awh why thank you! Also, yes that is jiji ^_^! Thank you once again, your comment is much appreciated!

MEEP Project: A Flexible System Supporting Next Generation European Open Source Software and Hardware
Flexible System Supporting Next Generation European Open Source Software and Hardware
Image: The MEEP team during the first meeting of the project in Barcelona, Spain
11 March 2020, Barcelona – Launched on 1 January and coordinated by the Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC), the European project "MareNostrum Experimental Exascale Platform" (MEEP) supports the goal of the European Union program EuroHPC to create competitive European technology integrated into future exascale supercomputers.
Specifically, it aims to develop an exploratory supercomputing infrastructure for the development, integration, testing and co-design of a wide range of European technologies which could form part of future European exascale systems, based on European-developed intellectual property (IP). The ultimate goal is to create an open full-stack (software and hardware) ecosystem that could form the foundation for many other European systems, both in high-performance computing (HPC) and embedded computing, with benefits for numerous stakeholders within academia and industry.
"The MareNostrum Experimental Exascale Platform (MEEP), as a performance evaluation and software development vehicle for future chip designs, will provide European technology that will set a foundation for many systems, both in HPC and beyond," says John Davis, MEEP coordinator at BSC. "By championing the open-source RISC-V instruction set architecture, MEEP will help ensure European technological sovereignty by avoiding the export restrictions associated with proprietary models, while building the software ecosystem necessary to make RISC-V viable for a wider range of applications."
Using an innovative emulation platform based on field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), MEEP will provide a testbed for RISC-V-based infrastructure, as well as building the initial software ecosystem to support this. MEEP's software development will translate into a proof-of-concept for industrial usage, enabling next-generation exploration of computer architecture as well as software development of existing and future HPC applications, including emerging artificial intelligence workloads, across sectors from pharmaceutical to automotive.
"By experimenting with RISC-V-based hardware designs through FPGA emulation, we can fine-tune the right architectures before committing to silicon," adds Peter Hsu, MEEP director at BSC. "The emulation platform will also allow us to test the full stack, from applications to hardware."
The European funded project MEEP will run for three years with a budget of €10.3 million, of which €5.15 million is directly funded by the European Union. In order to reach its goals, MEEP brings together three European Union (EU) partners: as coordinator, BSC (Spain) will provide software and hardware as well as expertise to create infrastructure for European chip developing targeting exascale machines, UNIZG-FER (Croatia) will contribute with its significant expertise in architecture and building and deploying FPGA-based systems and TÜBİTAK BILGEM (Turkey) will contribute offering deep expertise in verification, architecture and advanced logic design.
Barcelona Supercomputing Center-Centro Nacional de Supercomputación (BSC-CNS) is the national supercomputing centre in Spain. The center is specialised in high performance computing (HPC) and manage MareNostrum, one of the most powerful supercomputers in Europe, located in the Torre Girona chapel. BSC is involved in a number of projects to design and develop energy-efficient and high performance chips, based on open architectures like RISC-V, for use within future exascale supercomputers and other high performance domains. The centre leads the pillar of the European Processor Project (EPI), creating a high performance accelerator based on RISC-V. More information: www.bsc.es

Nothing spectacular or anything, but the concept amused me so I thought I'd go ahead and try it out. I'm aware of the similarity with SCP-1974, but I tried my darnedest to make it unique. Of course, I have no idea if I marvelously succeeded or miserably failed, but that's why this thread exists. I do have a couple concerns going in: the containment procedures probably aren't that great and the second addendum probably doesn't need to be there.
It's on the second tab titled "A philosopher, an author, and a scientist walk into a bar" (a completely amazing title in every regard). If you feel like looking at everything else, which isn't much, no one is stopping you.
Thoughts? Suggestions? Should I be ashamed of what I've written? So on and so forth.
My thoughts on the skip itself; I like it. The containment procedures are perfectly adequate for what the anomaly is. It's safe, and it doesn't require complex containment procedures. The second addendum is also fine. The one thing i'd say that needs development is the actual interactions between the heads. Right now the similarities to 1974 are most obvious in the debate structure. The skip already has a built in solution which is that it comes complete with it's own moderator. Currently the moderating head doesn't get as much of a say as it should. There's too much emphasis on the endless debate.
I'd suggest reworking the argument structure to make it spiral out of control less. Have the second head keep the peace as much as possible. You can still have the conversation descend into rambling argument, but the mediator is what sets this apart from 1974. Also, I'd put in maybe one or two more interviews, or maybe a log which gives small summaries of debates. You've got topics already and it'd be interesting to see that fleshed out more.
Coolio. Thanks for the feedback. You know, I hadn't really thought of having the second head really being this moderating force between the other two, but now that you've brought it up, I should probably invest into that aspect a lot more. Also, it's cool that those concerns of mine shouldn't necessarily be concerns. Still, thanks again for the feedback.
Alrighty, revisions have been made and it's time for another round of heart-shattering feedback.
I tried incorporating the moderator head thing more into the article while still allowing the arguments to go a bit out of control. Making this head be more like a guy trying to get control over the situation but hardly having any success. However, I didn't go and add another interview or anything. Personally, I feel like the whole thing works better with just one interview, keeping the article minimally complex, but I could be entirely wrong. If someone else suggests I should do it, then I'll probably do it.
Still under the same "philosopher author scientist" tab.
They are also more verbally aggressive and intrusive than their real-life counterparts, constantly interrupting each other as well as personnel attempting to speak with them.
I'm not a fan of the comparison to the real people. Aggressiveness seems like something that isn't easily quantified in a single person, and the whole part feels a bit off. I personally would just say that they are verbally aggressive and leave it at that. Additionally, I would replace 'personnel' with 'those'.
Moving swiftly on, the discovery feels very weird. "He shot himself to get away from those two." What? If you're that bothered by them, just throw them out the window, its not like they can do anything about it. You could just say that they were abandoned at a dump or something, that would make more sense.
But there are several flaws with that theory, love. Terracotta isn't…"
I might just start with "But Terracotta isn't"
I might get rid of the "How dare you"
I think you might of put a -1 instead of a -2 there.
Other than that, the dialogue seems alright.
As for the article as a whole… I don't know. I feel like its not quite up to scratch but I don't really know how to fix it, other than what I already proposed. If I think of something, I'll edit my post. In the mean time, you should definitely see if you can get it reviewed in chat - I think fast paced real time crit would be best for fleshing out the dialogue.
Anyway, thanks again for the critique.
