Anyone know how to get back the old circle-ci UI?

The circle-ci web page had a "try our new UI beta" banner at the top. I made the mistake of clicking on it. Now the circle-ci builds are failing, and it is impossible to view the reasons why.  Anyone have a clue how to reset back to the old UI?

The new circle-ci is forcing me to set up a login with password and 2-factor authentication, and no matter what I do, I cannot set this up. I can't tell if its something about their website, or if its a browser issue -- clearing browser cookies made the problem worse, and ad-blocking definitely breaks the website. So I'm blind ... nothing works.  Can't even access their discussion board .. because I need to log-in to do that(!!!) Yikes!

I am not sure if this is a per-user breakage, or a system-wide opencog breakage -- if any of the regular developers here (and you know who you are @ambel and @ngeiswei) know how to view/change/reset, ***please*** reset to the old circle-ci UI ... and be careful not to wreck browser cookies as you do so....

Circle-ci doesn't have an option for registering with password afaik. You just login with github or bitbucket. 

There doesn't seem to be an opt-out option. I wasn't able to find a hit on the discussion board https://discuss.circleci.com/

Except that doesn't work :-(  I can't log in.

Actually, there is; I found a how-to for it, and mentioned the URL somewhere else, in some recent pull req.  It's not clear if the opt-out is per-user, or per-project.  At any rate, since I can't log in, I can't change that.

Until I'm able to log in, I'm flying blind, and cannot see the circleci test results.

Productivity tools are supposed to make one productive; currently, circleci has become anti-productive :-/   I hope they fix it soon.
