HN: Why does it show that I'm logged in as someone else?
My username is ozres1 yet every now and then it says I'm logged in as someone else

I'm not having this problem. Are you on a public computer or maybe pg was doing some updates?
i'm on a computer at work. it's been happening quite consistently for several weeks now. i'm the only one that uses this computer.
This happens to me at work too. Your company is using a caching proxy of some sort. If you hit the browers refresh it should show your data... Sorry I can't give a better tech explanation, not my area of expertise
This isn't my area of expertise either, but if you add a fake argument to your URL string like "&foo=bar" that should probably force a non-cached version. I'd check to see if there are any extensions available for your browser that do something like that.
we can only use internet explorer and i don't have admin access
So now you know that others in your company (or at least behind the same caching firewall as you) are HN users! :)
i see. i suppose that's why when i hit different links (e.g. ask, submit) i see different karma numbers unless i hit refresh
