I (partly) answered my own question Using Aes for file encryption[^].
When I added the answer, and then modified it, the answer was marked as accepted for some reason. So I thought that I have accidentally pushed the Accept and I rejected the answer. So far so good, but when I had a look at rep, I noticed that I had:
-25 Authority Answer Accepted (undo)
but no corresponding +25 
Not a big deal, but I didn't want to mark the answer as solved since I hope that someone still comments either the question or the answer.

The Insider News email I got had that subject line. Sounds like a really interesting article. Only, I couldn't find it anywhere in the body of the email. Has somebody deleted the jQuery plugins repository again?

It was in the body of my email. Here is the link http://iwantaneff.in/repo[^].
BTW, that page does not work in my IE8, but seems to work just fine in Chrome.

Strange, I just double checked and still didn't see it in the email. Did it have a different title than what was in the subject line? Was it under Industry News, Developer News, or Code Project Discussions?

I just realized I looked in the mail titled
"CodeProject | Web Developer Newsletter - The Handpicked jQuery Plugins Repository"
not in
"CodeProject | Daily News - The Handpicked jQuery Plugins Repository".
In the Web Developer mail, the section looks like this:
Quote: The Handpicked jQuery Plugins Repository
jQuery has become a must-use tool for many web developers, not only because it's useful on its own, but also because of the incredible variety of clever plug-ins you can employ to simplify just about any task. But that incredible variety of plug-ins makes it difficult to find the right one other than by trial and error. David Higgins to the rescue: he's put together a repository of the best plug-ins. One stop shopping. (more: The Handpicked jQuery Plugins Repository[^])

Ah, makes sense. So it probably is missing from the latter.

Yeah, I don't see it in the Daily News mail either. Bad hamsters

Noticed after checking this users rep.

Being able to see this negative trend is useful to know if there is a sporadic or regular negativity towards the user, and how much he/she as been nailed at a given time.
i.e. always being an @rse or just a recent singular event.
Can we have negative trends back (sure we had them previously) please.

This is mostly subjective, IMHO.

Now, that is a wonderful example of self-referential ambiguity ! Reminds me of the great Guru Yogi Berra's comment: "ninety percent of this game is fifty percent mental."
Gotta +5 this curve-ball !

The graph is showing a nice, deep plunge down to -200 from where I sit.

Same as Chris, I can see it. 0 is not at the bottom!
I think computer viruses should count as life. I think it says something about human nature that the only form of life we have created so far is purely destructive. We've created life in our own image.

It must have been a caching then, I see that as well now.

If it makes you any happier, I saw it too...

Could you please add to article viewing page the ratio between downloads and viewing. I think it is a good measure of interest
|
|

Have you forgotten how to divide? Do you want to borrow a calculator?

I still remember how to divide and I do have a calculator.
|
|
|
|
|
It's such an arbitrary number though: what about articles with no downloads? Or those with lots and lots of downloadable files? I'm loathe to formalise a number that may provide the temptation for comparison.

No loads is no problem there is no ratio. I can see your points about multiple loads. How about downloads divided by views and dividen by number of downloads.
|
|
|
|
|
How about a cheap calculator from the stationary cupboard?

Sorry to disappoint you. Your are the second person to make this thoughtful suggestion.

Hi Uzi,
My two cents worth:
I think we have enough information already to make our own informed judgments. imho "page views" is not in the "same league" of significance as number of votes, number of bookmarks, number of downloads, average vote rank, and the number of comments.
Since the home page on CP often features as "Feature Article" an article going back many years (and certainly articles that deserve to be mentioned again), many views may be generated from that alone that may not generate votes, downloads, comments, bookmarks, etc. I usually click on that Feature Article link just to see what's in it, even if it is far outside my own range of interests within .NET, which have a relatively "narrow" scope, I would guess, compared to many other CP users.
best, Bill

Looks like recent update has removed the line separating the signature from message content. (for tech forums only, I see working here!)
Just replied a question in ASP.NET forum and found my signature just below my answer content.

You mean for this[^] message? It's because you had a hanging A tag. Fixed.

Yep, that one only.
Thanks for fixing. But, I did not made it happen - just wanted to share. Or did I?
