More as a way to have historical record of what I've been upto - it also makes a Year in Review easier, as I can look back and pick up on themes - but also as a way to remind myself what good/bad stuff happens, and process the week before a new one starts. It's kinda therapeutic, but also does make it quite visible when I've had a bad week / it's not been noteworthy. I unfortunately don't write as much about how I feel as it's public but I'm going to support writing privately before long which will allow me to augment the posts with more intimate info

My personal blog has a mix of all things - it's largely tech related but I have personal things like my Week Notes, and even social media responses like this one ☺ I really enjoy having it as a single view of me

Have you looked into #IndieAuth (https://indieauth.net/) it's an open standard from the #IndieWeb community and allows folks to log in via their personal website - it's built on top of OAuth2 so is fairly straightforward to add support for!

Thanks for covering this, there was some really good discussion - I do hope that more folks share their salaries to help more junior / underrepresented groups get what they're worth!

Listened to Ep 5 - Talking Openly About Pay! by Tech Team Weekly
Post details
This week, our main story is the debate over whether companies (and employees) should be happy to disclose salaries, in an attempt to drive pay equality, a chat made somewhat harder by Neil's repeated inability to pronounce the word "equality". We get deep into discussion about our experiences with knowing (or not knowing) how our colleagues are paid, companies and countries who we've seen get the balance right, and the challenges of introducing salary negotiations in the job-hunting process. But there's more! We'll also be talking about a secret new privacy-shattering setting in Chrome which is enabled by default, and bemoaning the lack of accessibility options in some modern games (and championing others which lead the way). You'll also hear what we've all been up to this week, including a top quality J-Lo story from Sanj, unexpectedly relevant election news from Neil, and Gwen basically doing everything under the sun. Plus there's an awful lot of Diablo II discussion for a podcast which isn't from the year 2000.
