I wrote this some years back and used it to help me find a job. It is dead-simple and definitely not as fancy as some of the other browsers. But it is purely local and your data doesn't leave your machine.

I’m a little sheepish that this is the highest post on the page. I thought the podcast was interesting and the transcript was pretty readable.

I'm reading the transcript and it's interesting. There must be a transcription process done by someone who is not one of the participants of the conversation. Perhaps automated but (roughly) vetted by a human afterwards.

> When the iPod shipped originally, it only worked on _max_ and it used the HFS plus file system, which was Apple’s file system. And then at some point they said most of the world uses Windows. And so we want to be able to sell a Windows version too. And so we added support for _Phat 32_ so that you could hook the iPod up to a Windows.

max = Macs I'd imagine, and Phat 32 is FAT32 :D

I understand what you are saying about copying someone to learn. I'm just not sure I agree it applies to digital media or bits especially in the exact same context (in response to the same article).

Interesting how the test score is 80% in the twitter thread and 95% in the article.

Love this. That PHP one is a little unnecessarily harsh though.

It's funny you read it that way, you may understand it correctly but I came away with a different interpretation, that they allow-listed the developer's IP and returned good non-phishing-warning responses to the monitoring check, but not to end-users.

I read about half of this post and I've paused there. It screams to me "Let's have a Universal Basic Income" already.

> And one day your wife calls you and tells you the water is off, and there’s nothing you can do; maybe some family member can help you out, or maybe you live without utilities for a week or so until you get paid and start the next pay cycle that much more behind.

These are people with children we are talking about. Why can't there be simple equity for these beings who are facing their demise through no fault of their own? Like seriously, WTF?

I want to support:

- sustainable electronics

- living wages

- right to repair

- removal of slave labor from any supply chain I am involved in

What do I have to do to make this happen?

> When I’m trying to explain to my sons how a company decides what to pay someone, it usually goes something like this: A company is looking to pay a person as little as they can and keep them, so a person’s pay is determined by how rare their skills are and how much demand there is for those skills.

> This isn’t evil on anyone’s part, and you shouldn’t feel bad about it - I’ve made a lot of choices in my life that led to this point and I have a lot of responsibility in terms of where I find myself.

_Yes it is evil._ I'm sure we cannot exist as a fundamentally secure, sane, healthy, fair, equitable, respectful, productive, diverse, healthy, robust society until this rot is done away with once and for all.
