Shout out to all the people with Leap-day birthdays
so... what happens to people who are born on leap-day?
Calculate ages: the 29 february issue, the leap year date
Today, I had come across with an error on one of our applications and it was a funny one.
If you have code that return the age based on a date field, give it a look and test for date 29-02-1996, it should return 18 years for today and you should also test it to for corner cases: a day before and after this day, to ensure that is properly implemented.
Why? Because it's a leap day!

Here some ruby code and specs for proper age calculation.
alexa liking pix of jack makes me happy
Just my luck..
.. of course!?!!
So, I would be completely thrilled for this lovely 'leap-day' snow-fall; if I didn't have to walk to my mental health intake appointment in a little bit!?!? It's just, I was feeling so positive about it.. thinking how it'd be nice to go for a walk anyway, get some exercise on my way to the first step in my healing-process. But from the looks of it, now I'll just be cold & drenched within minutes of stepping foot out the door!? I'm not letting that stop me though!! As much as there is a part of me saying "just reschedule, it's gross out there" -but I know I can't predict the weather & I'd only be denying myself something I truly need.
I just can't help but think right now: "isn't it ironic?!" haha
Happy, "Work for Free Day."
Also known as Leap Day. Still don't get it? Here you go!
How often have you wished for an extra hour or extra day to get everything you need done? At ASF, we want to make the most of this special leap day by using it to help autism science leap forward. Thanks to your support, for the last two years we have provided funding for autism stakeholders (parents, individuals with autism, teachers, students, etc) to attend the International Meeting for Autism Research (IMFAR). All donations made today, February 29, 2012, will go directly to our IMFAR Travel Grants program, helping us provide more scholarships to IMFAR 2012 in Toronto where they will share their real world autism experience with scientists. These stakeholders will then bring the latest autism science back into our communities helping the science take a giant leap forward. After attending IMFAR, past grant recipients have: - Organized a five day autism science seminar at Barnard College - Presented critical autism research information to nurses in Philadelphia - Produced multiple blog posts that reached thousands of readers around the world - Organized an autism awareness club and speaker series at Yale College And thanks to a generous donor, all donations made today (February 29, 2012) will be matched dollar for dollar for an extra big leap. Do something special with this extra day of 2012 and help leap science forward. Please make a donation today!
