Many, many years ago, I started my depressing voyage through the world of work at an Overwaitea food store in my home town. As a teenager, I expected to work so weird hours, and accept some level of abuse from the “adults” I worked with.
However, it seems that the organization now expects all their employees [...]

In: GSM
14 Oct 2007Got my T-Mobile Rizr Z3 unlocked yesterday and it is now running the stock Z3 Software…looks like for Malaysia!
I hated all the extras that came with the T-Mobile Software. Now, I am happy.

GrabPERF: Substantial Navigation Changes
4 Aug 2007If you use GrabPERF on a regular basis, the somewhat flaky navigation method has become second nature to you. In fact, to circumvent some of the idiosyncrasies, you have probably bookmarked your favourite pages.
Yesterday, I broke your links.
When I redesigned GrabPERF in February 2006, I had just discover the require function in PHP, and decided [...]

GREEN CARD: Run in circles, scream and shout
In: Canada| Immigration| Life
18 Jul 2007Well, now that I’m certified, the slope gets slippery very quickly.
We have until early August to get all of our docs to the lawyers before the August 17 deadline.
Many calls, pictures, doctors appointments, and huge expense.
Going to be a fun month.

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 [...]
Dog Friendly Hotel: Comfort Inn — Syracuse Airport
In: Life
18 Jun 2007Ok, we are back from Wasaga Beach. We crossed the border in a ridiculously easy manner — when you have a work visa, you always expect the body-cavity search treatment — and made a run for Syracuse. We picked a hotel out of the air and lucked out with the Comfort Inn near the Syracuse [...]
New Measurement Location: Gothenburg Sweden
In: GrabPERF
18 Apr 2007Thanks to the generosity of Henrik Sjostrand of Netvouz, there is now a measurement location up and running in Gothenburg Sweden.
You will find it listed in the data as Gothenburg Sweden #1.
I have had a few other parties expressing an interest in hosting a measurement agent, but there is always room for more measurement locations! [...]
