I cheated with the design of the jsphp.co web-site and used a layout from this article CSS layouts. I use a slightly customised version of the one column fixed width layout and the two column fixed width layout.

jsphp.co developments
I’m working on my jsphp.co web-site. I haven’t deployed my latest changes yet, so there’s nothing there on the main web-site just now, except if you head over to checkout the development area which has all my latest changes. Basically over the last couple of days I’ve added support for:
- Home page
- Category listing
- Function listing
- View function, tests and benchmark with linkable line numbers
- Edit function, tests and benchmark with summary
- Test the code using QUnit
- Benchmark code and compare versions
- List revisions and view, edit or change the release status
- List developers including local and upstream contributors
- Comments on functions or tests (incomplete)
- Link to features, such as code downloads or the phpjs.org implementation
- Administer the function
- Contributor listing
- Lists local contributors
- Lists upstream contributors
- Licensing info
- Downloads
- Links to other web-sites
- Contact information
- System administration
- Manage categories
- Manage functions
- Manage users
- Manage upstream developers
- View errors
There’s still a little bit to do. Basically I need to review the entire code base for HTML injection and XSS vulnerabilities, I need to fix up the commenting subsystem to allow for editing and creation of comments, I need to protect from some changes (e.g. only administrators can release a function version), many of the forms need better/reviewed workflow for errors and omissions, there needs to be a facility for adding and removing upstream developers, and that’s about it. Once I’ve got those planned changes done I’ll release the latest version of the site and begin the process of importing the phpjs.org code base.
Words on Noam Chomsky’s computer
Today I watched reddit.com Interviews Noam Chomsky and in the video you can see a laptop in the background that pops up various words. I’m not sure why these words are there, it looks like some sort of screensaver. Anyway, I wrote down all the words that I could see properly and then wrote a program to put them in the following table:
Intelligence
The more I learn about Artificial Intelligence the more I worry about actual human intelligence.
It seems like objective reality is constrained in significant ways, and I’m not sure we’ll ever be able to know or speak the whole truth.
ML class
I’ve started the ML class.
My notes are on my sixsigma wiki.
Bash aliases
I was reading my default .bashrc file, and found the following:
# Alias definitions.
# You may want to put all your additions into a separate file like
# ~/.bash_aliases, instead of adding them here directly.
# See /usr/share/doc/bash-doc/examples in the bash-doc package.
if [ -f ~/.bash_aliases ]; then
. ~/.bash_aliases
fi
This suggested that I wanted a .bash_aliases file for my aliases, so I set one up:
jj5@sixsigma:~$ cat .bash_aliases alias home='cd ~' alias jj5='cd /var/www/www.jj5.net/' alias profile='cd /var/www/www.jj5.net/profile/' alias chomsky='vim /var/www/www.jj5.net/profile/chomsky/index.html' alias henney='vim /var/www/www.jj5.net/profile/henney/index.html' alias lakoff='vim /var/www/www.jj5.net/profile/lakoff/index.html' alias norvig='vim /var/www/www.jj5.net/profile/norvig/index.html'
This is my basic “CMS” system for http://www.jj5.net/profile/.
Integrating Doctrine 2 with CodeIgniter 2
I was having trouble integrating the latest version of Doctrine and CodeIgniter, but luckily I found an article replete with implementation package for that: Integrating Doctrine 2 with CodeIgniter 2.
Important: JavaScript does not have block scope.
I’m a little embarrassed to say that I only looked this up for the first time today. Although, I’ve been programming in JavaScript for so long that I must have known this years ago, but “forgotten” as I haven’t done much JavaScript programming in the last few years. Hey, at least I retained that niggling feeling like I had to look that up!
Important: JavaScript does not have block scope.
Basically:
var x = 1;
{ var x = 2; }
print( x ); // outputs 2
Getting started with Code Igniter
I’ve been working my way through the Code Igniter documentation and have the basic framework properly configured in Pcphpjs now.
Getting started with Doctrine
I worked through the Getting Started with Doctrine guide this evening, putting my content in the Pcphpjs project. There were a few hurdles to jump over, but in the end I got the sample application working in PHP with SQLite.
