3/19    Why do you guys insist on putting stuff in /csua/pub/jobs/* ?
        You're posting on motd, so obviously you want many people to look
        at the job and to apply. Why not put it in places like
        http://csua.berkeley.edu/pub/jobs/* where your listing will
        get even more exposure?
        \_ Because that's where they've always been put.  Because these are
           job postings to fellow members.  Because the CSUA is a social
           (read networking) organization.
        \_ Because 1) we didn't know it was there and 2) don't know how to
           put files there.  What's the file system path?
        \_ 1) that gives me a 404, how about you? 2) motd isn't global -- so
           these postings are for the benefit of members
                \_ DEAR POLITBURO, as a recruiter I'd like to put stuff
                   on <DEAD>csua/pub/job/*<DEAD> so that more ppl can access
                   it. How do I do that? Thanks.
                   \_ boy man mail

9/26    I remember there was web version of the motd with search function
        (originally due to kchang ?).  The last time I used it it was hosted
        on the csua website but I can't remember its url (onset of dementia?)
        now. Can somebody plz post it, tnx.

9/4     It looks like there are some issues with wallall at the moment. Any
        plans for it getting fixed? I can run wall, but wallall just gives an
        error.
        \_ Asking questions on the motd will not get any attention from
           any undergrad. You should email politburo or perhaps csua. -ausman

4/19    Motd updater thingy seems to be broken, does anyone know why?
        If not, I will take a look later in the day. -ausman
        \_ /etc/motd.public is not getting copied into /etc/motd for a while.
           \_ Now it works and no one knows why. Strange. -ausman

2/6     Um, what happened to http://www.csua.berkeley.edu/~myname ?
        "The requested URL /~myname/ was not found on this server."
        \_ Try emailing root or politburo. I don't think that the
           undergrads use this machine anymore. -ausman
        \_ Ausman is mostly right. LDAP went down due to an expired cert and
           took down most of the rest of our stuff. It's probably a thing with

2/24    What newsreader should I use on soda?
        \_ USENIX? You serious? Everyone switched to RSS.
           \_ I think you mean usenet not usenix.  usenet was generally much
              better than blogs / rss (cf. comp.lang.c, comp.lang.perl,
              the usenet oracle, alt.* with digg, slashdot, etc.)
           link:reader.google.com is the best
