Hello World!

Ok web geeks, how is it possible that Safari renders pages differently based on the network connection?

Safariscrollbars2

The two screenshots displayed here are taken on the same machine (13" MacBook Air on OS X 10.7.3) and same browser (Safari 5.1.3). The ONLY difference is, the one above was taken while logged on to my home network, and the one below was taken while logged on to the network at the office.

Safariscrollbars

As you can see, the one below is displaying scrollbars. Changing the window sizes makes absolutely no difference. The CSS is specifying a max-height and overflow:scroll for each of the DIVs. On the home network it behaves as expected, only briefly showing the scroll bars when you, ahem, scroll, then they disappear. On an iOS device, regardless of what type of network connection it works beautifully, never showing scrollbars at all.

I get that the scrollbars will appear on other browsers like Chrome, Firefox and the dreaded IE at this time, but this behavior in Safari is puzzling. Why does the same browser display 2 different results? The network factor is the only difference I can think of. I've tested this a couple times in the past few days, and the results are the same.

New Installation at 1 Icon.

(download)

More than 1000 sales reps from around the world are gathering this week for our Global Sales Meeting. What better time to put up a new installation that showcases some of our core values as well as some iconic products throughout our history. This is an interactive display. No, not digital, but employees will get the chance to write and comment on the walls regarding that Oakley “is” and “is not.”

Day one is at headquarters, so as usual, it’s a festive atmosphere. I love walking up to the building in the morning and being able to hear the DJ pumping music all the way from the lower lot. There's only room for 30 flags on the building, but over 100 countries are represented here today.

Pics of the new Man Cave.

It was an early Christmas for me when I got my speakers installed yesterday, but there’s something terribly wrong. No, it’s not the fact that the subwoofer didn’t come in with the rest of the speakers, but clearly the TV is way too small! Looks like I need to start planning my first upgrade, hehe.

I was amused by how nicely my Tokyoplastic Koguma vinyls matched the Monitor Audio Silver RX Rosenut Wood Veneer color. I just had to put them on display nearby.

Below are a couple views from the Entertainment and Office Sides of the setup. The last pic is pretty crappy but I just wanted to quickly show the speakers in the ceiling. The futon will eventually be replaced with a couple of bean bags since it kind of chops the room in half. The office portion of the space isn’t as tight as the picture makes it out to be. Should have picked a better shooting angle. The front of the futon is about the halfway mark in the room.

The other big problem with this new setup is, I’m having a hard time getting myself out of this room. Even without the sub, the sound is pretty awesome. Even working on my computer is more pleasureable since the music is no longer coming out of the DX4 studio monitors (by M-Audio) on my desk. They’ve done a decent job these past 6 years, but nowhere near the quality of these Monitor Audio RX8’s.

Big thanks to Ben and Ryan for helping me decide on this setup! The music quality is much better than my previous home theater setup which was optimized for movies. This setup is far more versatile, and playing Gran Turismo 5 is fantastic with the sounds wizzing by on the proper sides. I was going to wait for the subwoofer before I watch an action movie, but I’m not sure I’ll be able to hold out.
