Bionic Reader Bookmarklet

This bookmarklet is inspired by Bionic Reader API that is truly incredible. However I have issues with service APIs that are not clear on how they handle the privacy and security of my data. So I made a quick and dirty bookmarklet to do the job locally.

• Create a new bookmark in your browser
• Use this script as the address:

javascript:(function(){!function(){window.hasOwnProperty("bionicWordWrapApplied")||(!function(e){var n,t=document.createTreeWalker(e,NodeFilter.SHOW_TEXT,null,null);for(;n=t.nextNode();){for(var o,r=n.parentNode,d=n.nodeValue;o=d.match(/^(\s*)(\S+)/);){d=d.slice(o[0].length),r.insertBefore(document.createTextNode(o[1]),n);var a=Math.ceil(o[2].length/2),c=r.insertBefore(document.createElement("b"),n);c.appendChild(document.createTextNode(o[2].slice(0,a)));var i=r.insertBefore(document.createElement("span"),n);i.appendChild(document.createTextNode(o[2].slice(a)))}n.nodeValue=d}}(document.body),window.bionicWordWrapApplied=!0

I couldn't find a good explanation of each step of signTypedData EIP with examples of inputs and outputs at each step. I wanted this so I could keep track.

Say this is our private key

const privKey = new Buffer(
  "c87509a1c067bbde78beb793e6fa76530b6382a4c0241e5e4a9ec0a0f44dc0d3",
  "hex"
);

SF Earthquake Danger

How dangerous are earthquakes to SF residents? My best guess is that we get an extra 15 micromorts per year. That’s a 3% increase over the non-natural causes mortality base rate in the US.

Math

Each year has about a 1/500 chance of a massive 7.9 magnitude earthquake that kills ~6000 people. SF has 800k people. (1/500) * (6000/800000) * 1000000 = 15 micromorts/year

Yearly all non-natural causes mortality in the US is 580 micromorts / year

15 / 580 = 2.6% increase in mortality rate

A country that's polarized is paralyzed. If we want any change in the coming years, we need to find a way to work together. However, you can't just unify people by holding hands and singing Kumbaya. No – rather than ignore or "put aside" our differences, let's use our different perspectives & interests & skills to tackle problems from all possible angles! For us to find common ground, we first need to find common goals.

This is the Common Project project.

Below, you'll find a list of projects, people, organizations, books, talks, movies, articles, and ideas that cross partisan lines to solve The Big Problems we face today. There's many such problems. And we'll need help from all sides.
