Breakfast at home: oatmeal with fresh, diced granny smith apple; cinnamon; unsweetened soy milk. Linkchecking for home websites. Rode Muni to UCSF Parnassus. UCSF shuttle from Parnassus to Laurel Heights. Linkchecking, kiosk work. WebEx with Rodney and Eric about the SPS installation in IIS7. Eric joined from home. Successfully re-enrolled in pwmanage and successfully changed my Active Directory password. Scanning and Photoshop help for Susan H. Resolved a problem in which after upgrading to OS 10.9 Mavericks I received the following CodeKit error while saving a .scss file: "Compass was unable to compile one or more files in the project: Encoding::CompatibilityError on line ["28"] of /Applications /CodeKit.app /Contents /Resources /engines /scss /lib /sass /tree /visitors /to_css.rb: incompatible character encodings: UTF-8 and ASCII-8BIT—Run with --trace to see the full backtrace—(This action was triggered by a change to _styles.scss)." OS X was version 10.9.3. CodeKit was version 1.9.3 (8403). ruby --version == ruby 2.0.0p451 (2014-02-24 revision 45167) [universal.x86_64-darwin13]. I resolved this by finding the config.rb that was at the root of my project folder, editing it to include 'encoding = "utf-8"' (without the single quotation marks) on the first line, then quitting and restarting CodeKit. The page at http://stackoverflow.com /questions /13987010 had the answer that worked for me from rauberdaniel. Before getting this solution to work I had read http://github.com /bdkjones /codekit2 /issues /11 and http://stackoverflow.com /questions /19572817 and http://www.amyhaywood.com /problems-codekit-upgrading-mavericks and tried 'sudo gem update --system' followed by 'sudo gem install compass' followed by 'xcode-select --install' and none of that had worked for me. It took me several hours to figure this out. (I had found rauberdaniel's answer last week and tried it but it did not work for me then, so maybe the solution required one or more of the commands I tried today.) Late lunch at the JCC: veggie burrito with cheese, water. Filed pcard paperwork. Styling work in Drupal: small fixes. UCSF shuttle from Laurel Heights to Parnassus. Rode Muni home. Dinner at home with Patrick. Patrick purchased groceries from Good Eggs for the first time, and he found it a really nice experience with reasonable prices. Dinner was turkey meatloaf, mashed potatoes, steamed broccoli. Today I helped a friend set up web space for a new startup.
