OpenAI just confirmed the Mixpanel data breach. 🚩
Basically: OpenAI used Mixpanel for frontend analytics, and Mixpanel got hacked.
Luckily, no chat history or API keys were stolen (phew).
But your Email, Name, IP, and Browser info might be leaked.

Can’t believe I’m waking up to the Aussie’s needing 205 to win and I have hope that England can bowl them out. #Ashes2025 #cricket

Dearly lacking discourse in local-first... the prerequisites for "data ownership" is it must be freely addressable (e.g. via the file system) and one must be able to adversarially do things with it (e.g. open/ubiquitous formats).
Having data in indexeddb is no more "owned" than having it in an http cache. Both are on your hard drive. Both are obscure formats you can't and won't do anything with. Data ownership requires using open formats. Almost no one doing local-first is even trying to do that.

Again for those at the back.
There are lots of people (including me) that are finding it very hard to get work. This is in part to the places that used to pay artists now wanking off to AI.
It aint cool or funny.
It's damaging to the planet & to the welfare of real people.

Alright, we're actually doing this open working thing.
We're going to work on projects, for real clients who are set up to make people's lives tangibly better.
We can only do that if it works financially though because we've got mortgages etc.
Your support will make this happen.

We’re trying a rather radical new approach at Piccalilli by doing real world projects — for real clients — in the open. This gives us a context to provide genuine high quality, real world education for free at the point of entry.
We need your support to do free projects for good causes and publish free high quality education
