bwg2000··on Muse exposes users' personal and business secrets when they share conversations
I went to watch the Social Reckoning (new sequal to the social network), which was somewhat thought provoking. After it finished, I get up to leave and see a couple in front of me immediately start scrolling through facebook and not speaking to each other - made me chuckle!

Club penguin themed because why not

bwg2000··on Google denies 'misleading' reports of Gmail using your emails to train AI
Another vote for Fastmail. Cannot fault, and honestly a joy to use (if that’s possible checking your email).
bwg2000··on Startup Winter: Hacker News Lost Its Faith
It seems like there's an expectation of having to get investment as quickly as possible for your company in order for it be "worth doing", which feels counter-intuitive. It sucks that this is the first thought and must prevent a lot of good stuff ever getting started. At least in the UK, a 300k salary for a senior developer is not plausible for most people. But the idea of growing a something slowly, without investment and reaching that sort of income definitely seems more likely. I guess it's all different circumstances!

Very cool, will need to find a use for this. I briefly had a go at building similar trying to replicate the Club Penguin UI - need to get back to it!
