The "values" section of Jake's hire me page is the best thing I've read in years. Clear, honest, principled, and ethical. Tech would be a much better place with more of this and more people like Jake.

Happy Earth, Wind, and Fire Day, to those who celebrate!
Do YOU remember “the 21st night of September?”
Earth Wind & Fire’s co-writer Allee Willis said she told the band: “We can’t leave ‘baa-dee-ya’ in the chorus. That has to mean something.’”
Maurice White replied: “No, that feels great. That’s what people are going to remember. We’re leaving it.”

Is there a list of alternative bsky pds implementations? I'm working on Oauth for my 3P app and it'd be nice to have "sign in with x" buttons where x isn't just bsky.
