The problem is, MySQL hasn't had a stable, crash-free release in MANY years. The version you think is stable is only stable with your data set and queries.

Couldn't you extract just that library from an RPM and stick it in a path that Firefox would find it?
Firefox 3.1 is introducing some preferences where you can, IIRC, disable sources of information AwesomeBar queries. I think you could tune it to remove those results. There are addons as well that pre-prioritize the results to be more like Firefox 2.
Firefox 3 does not tell Google which sites you are visiting. It downloads a local version of the blacklist and queries it locally.
If you're talking about on Linux, 3.1 is fixing some of the fsync issues that made it slow on some boxes.
How much of the server growth is due to capacity, though? I'd like to see some numbers comparing how many users a Windows Server host for a web application can support versus, say, BSD, for the same application. I looked around a bit but couldn't find any.
That analogy is a bit off. Opening the hood of your car is a common operation. Easter eggs should be uncommon to the point that most users will never locate them.
And you know, some of us in management like when people stand up to us. I don't know everything, and never will, nor do I want to. That's why I hired you (I hope). If I have to dictate everything to you and you bow to my every whim, (a) you're more worthless than your interview hinted at, and (b) you're never going to get anywhere.
If you think those things are limited to inner city schools you are sadly mistaken.
Sometimes you have to ignore the bigger picture to make progress in the short term. Very few problems are solved trying to solve the macro picture without focus on the micro, IMO, and most macro problems are solved only after a shit-ton of micro problem solving. [Note: macro/micro doesn't refer to physical scale]
