This morning I launched Bipolar Lives, a blog that discusses the broad issues and personal challenges of living with Bipolar Syndrome.
Readers of this blog will know that I was diagnosed with Bipolar I in 2006. It’s a condition I am very open about and that is a challenge (and an opportunity) that I live with. [...]

USCIS, Green Cards, and Greed: Your (United States Federal) Government at Work
In: Canada| Immigration| Life| RANTING
14 Jul 2007It seems that more than the usual immigration backlog reduction process has been at work in the USCIS. There are two likely scenarios that appear to be running around immigration circles these days, regarding the Green Card slot tease that has turned into such a furore.
The first is that the Department of State, which issues [...]

GrabPERF: Yahoo issues today
In: GrabPERF| Web Performance
6 Jul 2007Netcraft noted that Yahoo encountered a bit of a headache today. So I fired up my handy-dandy little performance system and had a look.
Although for an organization and infrastructure the size of Yahoo’s this may have been a big event, in my experience, this was a "stuff happens on the Internet" sort of thing.
Move along [...]

Boston Verizon Measurement Agents Retired
In: GrabPERF| Web Performance
4 Apr 2007This morning, after months of increasing performance issues, and connectivity issues, I have retired the Boston Verizon measurement location. This location hosted 2 measurement agents.
The machines, hosted in my basement, are connected using Verizon FiOS, which has become increasingly flaky over the last couple of months. As well, the machines are 7 year old Pentium [...]

I am writing up a client presentation for next week, and I just realized just how flawed Internet Explorer is. Microsoft claims that the browser is standards compliant. Yet it still doesn’t support HTTP pipelining.
And the frustrating part? They won’t tell us why. I have my suspicions, which include TCP stack issues and a flawed [...]
Dwell: The long wait is over…
In: Architecture / Design| Life| Photos
31 Jan 2007I truly have become addicted to Dwell, reading issues over and over again, trying to extract something new from them.
Yesterday, after a seemingly endless wait, March 2007 arrived.
Ahhhhhhhhh….mmmmmm….
Call me in a month.

In: Bipolar
16 Nov 2006For a 38-year old man with no outward symptoms of a physical ailment, my daily drug/supplement regimen is one that would leave many of my peers stunned.
The problem is, that like most people who are bipolar, I take a cocktail to try and balance out the variety and multitude of symptoms and effects I undergo. [...]
Brad Feld: Used Mercedes Dealer
In: Uncategorized
8 Sep 2006So, with all the prognosticating about what Brad Feld is going to do next, I think I know what his next gig is.
Used Mercedes Dealer, specializing in cars with slight electrical issues.
Here’s one of the models he has in his Kevlar and Nomex lined showroom.
Ignore the flames.

GrabPERF: Text Matching Example
In: GrabPERF| Web Performance
9 Aug 2006I now have a true live example of how text matching can provide information on issues where a successful page is returned.
In this example, the TEST AGENT returned a Text Match Failed error, while 3 of the agents running the current production code said the page was a success.
How do I know that the TEST [...]
