I have to say, though, that regardless of whether or not it's quantum it's still damn fast. But the question was, is it quantum? I don't exactly know how you prove that. I assume you can, I just don't know how.

Unfortunately, it doesn't describe "how" the exploit was done, even generally. Anyone know?

I'm not worried about managing my music (I know there are alternatives); I'm more frustrated by the ridiculous process of managing the phone.

I think the overarching aspect of agile has failed, in part because it requires more implementation than most companies are willing to put up with.

I see, in general (and I am a certified scrummaster, FWIW), that companies tend to embrace sprints - usually going for two weeks - and daily standups (which they might do poorly, but at least they try). Everything else - estimation sessions, lessons learned, burndown charts - are up for grabs. Maybe that's a failure of the company. Maybe that's a failure or Agile, for failing to take into account the normal inertia of companies - I don't konw. It is better than waterfall, but it's not fully embraced.

I disabled everything but Ghostery, since in reality I don't use Firebug much. We'll see what happens with that as the only add-on. Otherwise, I'm jumping ship. I don't mind some inconveniences, but when I can't get anything done...

I have an 8-gig mem 64-bit Windows 7. I run almost no extensions (usually just firebug and ghostery and web developer).

It's not any one thing; it just seems to bog down, and I can't noodle out why, except Firefox seems to be the common denomator ATM.
