Happy as he is, Hogarth is suspicious. He knows there are a lot of variables that affect the perception of performance on the Web: on average, web sites are heavier today than they were half a decade ago, the blog author has probably been through a machine (and system) upgrade or two in that time, and her browsing patterns and content interests have probably changed as well. In the interests of intellectual honesty, Hogarth would like to do some uniform experiments with real-world data to figure out if her given reasoning is well-founded or not.		* Hogarth is a developer whose contributions include work on a web browser.

	Hogarth is a developer whose contributions include work on a web browser. He's recently read a blog post from someone explaining that, after she switched several years ago away from the browser Hogarth works on, she's now switching back. She says that she originally switched away because the other browser was faster than Hogarth's, but now it's Hogarth's browser that's the fast one. Happy as he is, Hogarth is suspicious. He knows there are a lot of variables that affect the perception of performance on the Web: on average, web sites are heavier today than they were half a decade ago, the blog author has probably been through a machine (and system) upgrade or two in that time, and her browsing patterns and content interests have probably changed as well. In the interests of intellectual honesty, Hogarth would like to do some experiments to figure out if her given reasoning is well-founded or not.		* Hogarth is a developer whose contributions include work on a web browser.

	As part of a trip Susanna is taking, she's currently en route to her next destination via public transportation. Her connection is variably spotty, weak, or non-existent, and she knows things will be no different in the first hours after her immediate arrival. Rather than lose it to idleness, she'd like to spend her time working on a project. She doesn't know ~~the details of~~ the APIs ~~she's using~~ by heart, though, and she normally uses a popular, developer-oriented web site ~~for documentation~~.

	Aki sees the makings of an excited discussion are about to unfold online, but he has to step out soon. He decides to let it brew so that he can read a fuller discussion later, rather than just the few comments that he can right now. When he returns, large parts of the discussion have been deleted. He sees that one of Thomas's comments is still alive, though, and he knows that Susanna had managed to read much of the discussion before it was removed, because she had just been talking to him about it on his way up.
