The project is using PurpleAir data.

Footer should say "Data from PurpleAir API" instead of "Data from SF Microclimates API"...

Meetings aren’t a scale problem, they’re a clarity problem dressed up as collaboration.

When execs dominate decisions, it’s usually because the org failed to make customer truth unavoidable.

Most process exists to protect careers, not outcomes.

Understanding why something exists doesn’t make it justified or effective.

I always had fail2ban but a while back I wanted to set up something juicier...

.htaccess diverts suspicious paths (e.g., /.git, /wp-login) to decoy.php and forces decoy.zip downloads (10GB), so scanners hitting common “secret” files never touch real content and get stuck downloading a huge dummy archive.

decoy.php mimics whatever sensitive file was requested by endless streaming of fake config/log/SQL data, keeping bots busy while revealing nothing.

I'm totally for net neutrality but I think the article focuses on the wrong "consequence". Do you really need superfast internet to scroll tiktok? if you think you do then you're probably willing to pay more vs a cheaper plan if you don't care.

It might even backfire and stifle the good parts of the proposal.

As mentioned by someone else, the title wording really appeals to conspiracy theorists.

It's odd... I feel like I shouldn't feel this way but I actually wish it wasn't happening. I appreciate Apple's gatekeeping, for the sake of privacy and security. As a developer, I also do not object to their cut of sales for providing a straightforward marketing and distribution channel.
