        An unusual visualization of browser market share from 2002-now
        \_ 1. Is it coincidence that it looks so much like the Firefox logo?
           2. Is Chrome eating away Firefox's share?
           \_ Chrome's user base is pretty much the same user base
              as Firefox user base, and to some extent, Safari. The

        \_ There's a rule that says NEVER BE THE FIRST TO TRY IT.
           I'm going to let Firefox3 version 1 hammer out bugs first.

4/28    When I watch videos in Yahoo News, they are very sluggish.  Is
        there a way to configure Firefox or IE to buffer the whole video before
        it starts playing?  I tried pausing, waiting for a while, and then
        playing again, but it didn't help.  Thx.

3/13    Firefox 3 Beta 4:  Fast, cleans up memory good on minimize, stable,
        can install alongside FireFox 2.x
        Cons:  Extensions don't work and need to install beta versions, rich
        urlbar is nasty but as of today you can install oldbar extension
        Ah-nold would say:  Fuckin' fan-tah-stik!

12/21   I was laid off and started filing for EDD for my weekly pay.
        I just got a job. Is there a form I need to file, or do I just
        stop filing out EDD to get my weekly pay? As a side note, how
        do they actually know I am working or not?
        \_ You just stop filing and they stop paying; you don't need to do
           anything else.  I don't know the internals of how they do things,

12/28   Happy holidays everyone.
        For some reason my work's ip address gets logged in /etc/hosts.deny and\
I cannot ssh in anymore from work
        (except from home where I can ssh in fine): anyone knows if this file is\
 auto-generated due to some event? Thanks

3/24    How are people transferring large files to one other person these days?
        When I need to send some videos to my parents, I upload them to
        my SpiderOak account, but they don't have anything like that,
        so I'm not sure how to get videos from them.  Does DropBox do this
        for free?

4/04    Is there a good way to diff 2 files that consist of columns of
        floating point numbers, such that it only tells me if there's a
        difference if the numbers on a given line differ by at least a given
        ratio?  Say, 1%?

8/30    Is wall just dead? The wallall command dies for me, muttering
        something about /var/wall/ttys not existing.

7/2     When I do "ssh name@machine command", that does not show up
        on the last log. Where is that action logged?
        \_ Depends on accounting level. Might not be logged at all.
        \_ Enable logging on sshd itself in the system sshd_config file.
