今天

飲食的部份晚餐有點太晚了，21:00 才吃，不過是突發事件，所以也還好，不是常態。

金錢使用正常，晚上買了小瓶優酪乳。

沒有念英、日文。(已經連續幾天了，要注意)

有去健身房運動。

睡眠時間提早到 1:50 。(昨天其實還是 2:00 才去睡)

今天有看一下 paper，重新開始閱讀學術著作。

雜事

今天有把房子定下來，交通很方便，不過比現在住的小很多，空間結構比較特別，但是我想我可以靠自己的的空間配置來彌補這份缺憾。

晚上有去三家腳踏車店看看腳踏車的品牌樣式，不過還沒有看到合適的，要找機會再去別家調查。

對明天的期望

飲食、金錢使用、運動繼續維持。

找出時間念英、日文(已經槓龜好幾天了)

睡眠時間能繼續提早，今天提早的幅度不夠。

從目前的 paper 作延伸閱讀，慢慢深入。

要開始複習一些技術性的東西，像是 C++、Flash。

抽空看點想看的書，像是 Randy Pausch 的 "The Last Lecture"、許方宜的「不怕我和世界不一樣」。(這個槓龜第二天)

Setting MySQL to Use UTF-8 on MAMP (MySQL 5.5.9, or 5+)

I wanted to setup MySQL to use utf-8 on the MAMP installation on my Mac. I tried the instructions from this article: http://cameronyule.com/2008/07/configuring-mysql-to-use-utf-8/ However, I kept getting error messages that are similar to this one [ERROR] /Applications/MAMP/Library/bin/mysqld: unknown variable 'default-collation=utf8_general_ci' I did some search and realized that several variables are deprecated. Reference: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/server-options.html Therefore, I added the following lines into /Applications/MAMP/conf/my.cnf [mysql] character-set-server=utf8 [client] character-set-server=utf8 [mysqld] character-set-server=utf8 collation-server=utf8_general_ci init-connect='SET NAMES utf8' I restarted the server and mysql run successfully with relevant variables being set correctly. In the "Variables" tab under phpMyAdmin interface (ex. http://localhost:8888/MAMP/?language=English) character set c

Use NVM to handle Angular-Node.js incompatibility (e.g., Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token 'export')

Overview If you are a fullstack developer, the chances are that you will be creating multiple frontend or Node.js projects along the way. When you are creating new projects using the newest version of the cli (command-line interface) of a particular framework, you might be asked to install the most updated version of Node.js in order to utilize the newest feature. This might involve upgrading your Node.js version, which might not be compatible with other existing projects (e.g., using Angular) you have created before. A potential solution is to use nvm (Node Version Manager) to install multiple versions of Node.js and use a particular version of the Node.js to install the proper version of the cli (e.g., Angular-CLI) that can be used to manage a particular project. Here I will use a problem I run into to explain how to solve it. Problem There is a compatibility issue between Node.js and angular.js. For instance, I run into an error when I was using an incompatible version of Node.js
