Jeff H Silverman
Jeff got his first personal computer in December 1969 [sic], and has been talking about computers non-stop ever since. His long-suffering wife hoped he would sit down and shut up when he retired, but while he did retire, he did not shut up. He still writes software, tutors, mentors, and attends computer conferences, but he doesn't make any money anymore.
Session
When you surf the web, there is a lot of stuff that goes on. When it works, which is most of the time, surfing the web is a joyous activity, unless you go to news sites. But when things go wrong, most browsers are not very helpful at diagnosing the problem.
In this presentation, I am going to describe browser failures in terms of what goes wrong at your end, what goes wrong at the server end, and what goes wrong in the middle. I will have some bash scripts to simulate problems on the client, on the server, and in the network.
