datetime - Format date-time as seasons in R? -


in r, it's possible format posixlt date-time objects month:

format(sys.time(), format='%y-%m')

is there way same thing seasons, or 3-month groups (djf, mam, jja, son)? these divisions common in climatological , ecological science, , great have neat way format them months. djf falls on 2 years, purposes or question, doesn't matter - consistently shove them either year, (or, ideally, able specify year go into).

i'm using output index by(), output format doesn't matter much, long each year/season unique.

edit: example data:

dates <- sys.date()+seq(1,380, by=35) dates <- structure(c(16277, 16312, 16347, 16382, 16417, 16452, 16487,                       16522, 16557, 16592, 16627), class = "date") dates #[1] "2014-07-26" "2014-08-30" "2014-10-04" "2014-11-08" "2014-12-13" # "2015-01-17" "2015-02-21" "2015-03-28" "2015-05-02" "2015-06-06" "2015-07-11"

should result in:

c("2014-jja", "2014-jja", "2014-son", "2014-son", "2015-djf", "2015-djf",    "2015-djf", "2015-mam", "2015-mam", "2015-jja", "2015-jja")

but "2015-djf"s "2014-djf". also, form of output doesn't matter - "2104q4 or 201404 fine.

as.posixlt returns named list (which makes unsuitable data.frame columns). list columns can individually accessed , include "year" (1900-based, unlike 1970 used default) , "mon" (0-based). best place see list in hte system ?datetimeclasses:

first seasons calculation, year-seasons calculation

 c('djf', 'mam', 'jja', 'son')[ # select character vector numeric vector           1+((as.posixlt(dates)$mon+1) %/% 3)%%4]   [1] "jja" "jja" "son" "son" "djf" "djf" "djf" "mam" "mam" "jja" [11] "jja"       paste( 1900 + # base year posixlt year numbering               as.posixlt( dates )$year +               1*(as.posixlt( dates )$year==12) ,   # offset needed december           c('djf', 'mam', 'jja', 'son')[          # indexing 0-based-mon                              1+((as.posixlt(dates)$mon+1) %/% 3)%%4]            , sep="-")  [1] "2014-jja" "2014-jja" "2014-son" "2014-son" "2014-djf"  [6] "2015-djf" "2015-djf" "2015-mam" "2015-mam" "2015-jja" [11] "2015-jja"

shouldn't difficult make function constructs formatting expect. modulo arithmetic on posixlt values month , year.

css - Make div keyboard-scrollable in jQuery Mobile? -

from can tell, although jquery-mobile-powered pages can contain divs overflow set scroll or auto, , these divs can scrolled one-screen bar or mouse wheel, cannot scrolled using arrow keys, page-up/page-down, or home/end. instead, official "page" div (with data-role="page") absorbs input. perhaps other divs can't acquire focus, i'm not sure. is there way around this? edit: jsfiddle of simple example: https://jsfiddle.net/qogz0shx/ <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.4/jquery.min.js"></script> <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquerymobile/1.4.5/jquery.mobile.min.js"> </script> <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.4.5/jquery.mobile-1.4.5.css"/> <style> #outer { overflow:scroll; height: 50vh; width: 50vw; } #inner { height: 500vh; width: 500vw; } ...

ruby on rails - Seeing duplicate requests handled with Unicorn -

recently upgraded our ec2 instances c3.large in order boost more unicorn workers handle increased traffic our site. (6xworkers per machine - 2 ec2 instances). when did this, started seeing duplicate records being created! looks somehow, maybe 2 unicorn workers attempting process same request? in nginx logs see 1 [post] request particular rails controller - yet 2 records being created in database. i'm hitting kind of race condition issue - have no idea how debug this. doesn't happen time, when it's frustrating well. noticed 2 database records within 5 seconds of each other. (and yes disable button when user clicks submit button). unicorn 4.8.2 ruby 1.9.3 rails 3.2.14 any great! thanks! although may not fix problem, upgrade ruby 2.0.0. there blog mentioning idea upgrade ruby 2.0.0 if using unicorn. for example: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/articles/how-to-optimize-unicorn-workers-in-a-ruby-on-rails-app specifically: if using ruby 1.9, ...
