I wrote and published this extension today. I hope people find it helpful in protecting their privacy.
rlaferla··on Dear GitHub
Github needs two major features: 1. discussion groups for users vs. devs as people use issues for it currently. and 2. A searchable "license" attribute for all projects with standard license templates for MIT/Apache/GPL/etc... When looking for a source code, you need to consider the platform, language and license.
rlaferla··on Income inequality is not the problem, it's a symptom
This is a great discussion on the single most important issue of our day. I like Paul Graham's perspective on this but I would like him to elaborate on how he would curb corruption. In the past, he said that "transparency" was key but they are doing this in the open and they direct the media to put a spin on it which the non-critical thinking masses can't detect. Politics/economics is an imperfect entity. I think the "pragmatic" solution may lie somewhere between Graham's Libertarian view and Sander's Democratic/Socialist view.
