Podcasts about Firefox

First up in the news: Mint Monthly News, March 2026; Major Redesign for Firefox: Chrome getting an upgrade; Debian 13.4; SUSE for sale - again; ASUS says MacBook Neo is “shock”; HBO, Paramount Merge; Xfwl4 coming to XFCE, and more. In security and privacy: Age Verification coming to your Linux PC?; Anthropic turns Claud loose on Firefox code.

The Paralympic flame has been extinguished, and sadly, the Games of Milano Cortina 2026 are over. However, there was still plenty of action on the final day of competition! Thanks to your support of our Grande Finale 150 campaign, we went to Milano to watch the para ice hockey medal games, both of which were the icing on the cake (especially in terms of record attendance) of a great Paralympics. Sports on today's program: Para Alpine skiing Para cross-country Para ice hockey Finally, the Closing Ceremony in Cortina at the curling stadium may have been in a small venue, but it included beautiful and poignant performances around the theme of memories. The cauldron may be out, but we're still keeping the flame alive! We have multitudes of memories from Milano Cortina 2026, and we hope you do too! Share them with us this week as we have two call-in shows. Alison will record on Tuesday, March 17 from 8-9pm ET. Jill will record at the same time on Wednesday, March 18. Here's the link to our studio. It works best with Chrome or Edge. It doesn't like Firefox. Thanks so much for listening, and until next time, keep the flame alive!

When it comes to podcast strategies to grow your podcast, one strategy that often gets overlooked (because it takes time) is Search Engine Optimization (SEO). Now people are starting to market a "New" thing known as PSO (Podcast Search Optimization).Podcast Search Optimization VS Search Engine OptimizationSo what is the difference? In reality not much. Tools like Podseo and PSO and Ausha show you information on how often keywords are being search in Apple and Spotify (and others). SEO tools show what people are searching for in Google and other places (YouTube, TikTok, and more).So THE question is, do people search differently in a Podcast App vs how they search Google? For me, I don't think so. I might just type a keyword "Podcasting Best Practices" where in Google I would type "Podcasting Best Practices Podcast."Keyword Research Boils Dow To ThisFind a keyword that has a fair number of people searching for (somewhere between 20-100 searches), and see how much competition it has. Instead of trying to score for a really popular keyword, score multiple times with less popular (but still be sought after) key words with less competition. Mom said "Don't go play in traffic," but that's what you need to do - but no on the free way.What is Your Domain Authority?SEMRush (a great suite of tools) has a domain authority checker.Tools To Boost Your Podcast SEO on the WebFree Keyword Tool (That Sucks IMHO)https://www.wordstream.com/keywordsGoogle Keyword Tool (Inside of Adsense Account)https://ads.google.comGo to Tools > Planning > Keyword Planner (Free and unlimited use)Keywords Everywhere Extension for Chrome and Firefox $7/month.

If you give me seven days to test the tool, give me access to ALL OF IT. I mean every marketer knows that you give it to the customer and let them "get hooked" so when their trial is over they will purchase.I couldn't do that as much of the tools spotlighted required me to upgrade. Boo.That being said it does show how much a keyword is searched for (not as specific as some tools for web seo). It also shows you how hard to competition is.Keep in mind that you need to give your dashboard 24 hours to show some statistics in your dashboard.Ausha PSO (affiliate)PodSEOThis is from Andrea De Marsi (Co-founder of Spreaker) and Francesco Baschieri (Co-founder of Spreaker) and it has a similar feature set to the ausha tool.You can save 10% using the coupon schoolofpodcasting. (affiliate)I thought it was very cool that Podseo alerted me to the mistake that I had accidentally listed my show twice in Spotify (I moved from Libsyn to Captivate - nuff said).It has some cool episode planners, and is cheaper than Ausha PSO. Their AI tools looks at your episodes and recommend future ideas and then helps you plan them, and has a calendar showing when the episodes were released.They also can send you daily updates on your rankings or your competition.Check it out at podseo.com and use the coupon schoolofpodcasting to save 10%Because of My Podcast: Paul ColliganPaul is a huge theater nerd, and loves the musical Chess.

From the National Horseplayers Championship in Las Vegas, past winners discuss present issues for the sport on the first live-ish episode since January of the Ron Flatter Racing Pod. David Harrison, Mike Gillum and defending victor Dan Piazza, three of the last four NHC winners, gather in a roundtable to talk about the secrets to their successes. They also weigh tournaments against everyday play in racing and the impact of computer-assisted wagering on their handicapping. Back at the track, trainer Will Walden discusses maiden winner High Camp, who tries to extend his one-turn acumen Saturday in the Virginia Derby, a virtual win-and-you're-in qualifying prep for Kentucky Derby 2026. Walden also discusses his conquering of substance abuse and how his stable has reached out to others who have had similar challenges. Super Screener creator Mike Shutty has tips for Saturday races, including the Virginia Derby, the Grade 3 Whitmore Stakes at Oaklawn and the Captiva Island at Gulfstream Park. John Cherwa of the Los Angeles Times and Keith Nelson from Fairmount Park are along with their weekly host chat, including the latest developments in the bankruptcy story at Hawthorne, the rejection of north-state racing in California and the latest defeat of the decoupling of Thoroughbreds and slot machines in Florida. There also is listener and reader feedback to the evergreen episodes of the podcast that ran in the last six weeks. The Ron Flatter Racing Pod via Horse Racing Nation is available via free subscription from Apple, Firefox, iHeart and Spotify as well as HorseRacingNation.com.

This week's deep dive explores a powerful theme shaping the modern threat landscape: invisible signals. From the devices we wear and drive to the AI systems we increasingly rely on, our technology is constantly emitting data — sometimes to protect us, sometimes to expose us.We begin with a new Android app called Nearby Glasses, designed to alert users when smart glasses like Meta's Ray-Bans are detected nearby via Bluetooth manufacturer identifiers. It's a citizen-built countermeasure to always-on wearable cameras, highlighting rising tensions between convenience and consent in public spaces.Next, we examine research showing that tire pressure monitoring systems (TPMS), mandatory in U.S. vehicles since 2007, broadcast unencrypted, persistent identifiers. Researchers captured millions of signals and demonstrated how vehicles can be passively tracked using inexpensive radio equipment. No hacking required — just poorly designed IoT architecture turning cars into rolling beacons.From physical signals to digital footprints, a new study reveals that AI can deanonymize social media users by correlating small details across platforms. What once required nation-state resources can now be done with commodity large language models, fundamentally challenging the concept of online anonymity.We then dive into the “Truman Show” investment scam — a sophisticated fraud operation that uses AI-generated personas, fake group chats, fabricated media coverage, and sham trading apps to create a fully immersive illusion of legitimacy. Rather than stealing trust directly, scammers now manufacture entire digital realities where trust feels inevitable.AI agents themselves are also reshaping security assumptions. Modern assistants can access files, write code, and interact with online services using a user's privileges. Researchers warn that prompt injection attacks — hidden malicious instructions embedded in content — can manipulate these agents into leaking data or performing harmful actions. When AI combines sensitive access, untrusted input, and outbound communication, it becomes a new form of insider risk.That risk was underscored by the OpenClaw vulnerability, which allowed malicious web pages to brute-force a local AI agent gateway and potentially hijack it. The lesson: “local” no longer means secure. Any system with elevated privileges must be treated as a governed identity.On the defensive side, AI is accelerating security improvements. Anthropic used a large language model to analyze Firefox's codebase, identifying over 100 flaws in two weeks, including 22 confirmed security bugs. AI is compressing months of review into days — but the same acceleration applies to attackers.Finally, Operation Candy in Sweden demonstrates how digital evidence can unravel vast criminal networks. Two seized phones exposed an international drug and money laundering operation spanning multiple continents, proving that even small data points can collapse large hidden systems.Zooming out, the pattern is clear: wearables broadcast presence, cars broadcast identity, AI strips away anonymity, scams construct synthetic realities, assistants act autonomously, and devices quietly record history. Signals are everywhere — visible and invisible — and AI is amplifying their impact.The question is no longer whether your technology emits signals. It's who is listening — and whether they're protecting you or profiling you.

Think your online alias keeps you safe? This episode reveals how advanced language models are making it trivial to de-anonymize users at scale, challenging everything we thought we knew about internet privacy. Anthropic & Mozilla improve Firefox's security. Apple & Google begin testing cross-platform RCS encryption. Ubuntu's SUDO starts echoing asterisks. Inviting a web proxy into your home. Apple devices cleared by Germany for NATO's use. A serious remote takeover of OpenClaw. TokTok won't encrypt messaging for visibility. Microsoft bans the term "Microslop" on Discord. Lot's of great listener feedback. LLMs could make Orwell's 1984 seem optimistic.

Two media professionals who have chronicled their love of the Thoroughbred game are featured this week on the Ron Flatter Racing Pod. Tommy Smyth with a Y, who has been a longtime sports personality in New York, discusses his ongoing trips to tracks both in the U.S. and his native Ireland. Smyth voices his concerns about computer bettors and how they have impacted his playing. He also advocates for fixed-odds wagering to be lined up alongside pari-mutuels. Alex Evers, one of racing's top photographers, talks about his frequent trips overseas to shoot races, especially in Hong Kong. He shares memories of stars like Romantic Warrior and Golden Sixty and how his close access to top horses might help him bet. John Cherwa of the Los Angeles Times and Keith Nelson from Fairmount Park are along with their weekly host chat. The Ron Flatter Racing Pod via Horse Racing Nation is available via free subscription from Apple, Firefox, iHeart and Spotify as well as HorseRacingNation.com.

video: https://youtu.be/9P4ki0yBVb0 This week in Linux, we've got a solid mix of kernel news, desktop progress, application releases, and even a little bit drama thrown in for good measure. Several Linux LTS kernels are getting extended support, COSMIC Desktop 1.0.8 has landed with more polish, Firefox 148 is out with some notable changes, and the Ladybird browser project is making a big move by adding Rust to its development strategy. On top of that, Discord has officially delayed its global age verification rollout after significant backlash, so we'll break down what happened there and what it means going forward. All of this and more on This Week in Linux, the weekly news show that keeps you up to date with what's going on in the Linux and Open Source world.

In this company update, I am joined by Patrick Highsmith, Chairman and Co-Founder of FireFox Gold (TSXV: FFOX | OTCQB: FFOXF | FWB: FIY1). Patrick joins the show to discuss the company's latest high-grade drill results from the Mustajärvi Gold Project in Finland's Central Lapland Greenstone Belt. Discussion Highlights: The Second Best Intercept Ever: Patrick breaks down the massive result from hole 25MJ012, which returned 7.6 metres at 32.25 g/t gold, including a ultra-high-grade sub-interval of 188.5 g/t gold. Narrowing the Gap: We explore the strategic importance of the "Gap Zone" between the East and Northeast Zones, where recent drilling has successfully connected mineralized structures over a strike length exceeding 1.1 kilometres. Geological Consistency: A look into why Mustajärvi continues to deliver high-grade gold with significant visible gold (VG) and how the project's stacked lode system remains open for expansion. 2026 Drill Program Outlook: An update on the 10,000-metre program, with 15 holes currently pending assays and plans to test the intriguing Triangle Target as spring exploration continues.   Any further questions for Patrick?

Andrew Beyer is the most important pioneer of analytics in horse racing. The legendary turf writer and the creator of Beyer Speed Figures is the featured guest this week on the Ron Flatter Racing Pod. Beyer talks about why he made the decision to take his closely guarded formulas and figures that gave him a player's advantage and sell them for public use. He also discusses how his speed figures are best used and perhaps misapplied in modern-day racing. The conversation also turns to how his figures have changed over the years, how they have inspired more analytics and the impact of computer-assisted wager on the game today. John Cherwa from the Los Angeles Times and Keith Nelson of Fairmount Park join in with their weekly host chat.

They are as much a part of racing as the horses and the bettors. Buglers have been a track tradition for more than 140 years. Four of the best-known convene for an episode full of stories and laughs on the Ron Flatter Racing Pod. Retired New York Racing Association bugler Sam Grossman, Santa Anita's Jay Cohen, Kentucky's Steve Buttleman and former Arlington Park fixture Monica Benson compare notes about their craft, their other gigs and even some stories of betting on horses. Their challenges of playing in bad weather and trying conditions are combined in this episode with the celebrities they have met and the odd interactions they have had with racegoers and connections behind the scenes. Co-hosts John Cherwa of the Los Angeles Times and Keith Nelson of Fairmount Park also offer their anecdotes. The Ron Flatter Racing Pod via Horse Racing Nation is available via free subscription from Apple, Firefox, iHeart and Spotify as well as HorseRacingNation.com.

Alan Byrne, Product Leader for Mozilla's Firefox extensions ecosystem, argues that the best product work is less doctrine and more judgement. In conversation with LRandy Silver, he breaks down why prioritisation frameworks like RICE and MoSCoW often masquerade as science while quietly embedding subjectivity—and why he prefers writing clear “what and why” statements over chasing false precision.From his experience at QuickBooks and Twitter, Alan explores when PRDs are genuinely valuable (complex systems, high risk, trust and safety concerns) and how to keep them lean enough to stay useful. The discussion also digs into the tension between moving a metric and doing right by users, the dangers of gamifying growth, and how product managers can translate customer problems into narratives that align engineers, executives, and sales.Chapters03:30 Product as philosophy04:41 Studying product vs learning in the field07:25 The real job: understand users and their “why”08:21 Why prioritisation frameworks often fail in practice10:58 Decision-making without false precision13:14 Goal-led roadmaps and narrative alignment14:22 Metrics, ethics, and avoiding gamification traps18:35 When PRDs help, and how to keep them lean22:37 Prototyping, vibe coding, and where it falls apart25:14 Communication, compromise, and working documents27:36 Preventing overbuild and defining “good enough”30:39 Handling “can't you just…” from sales and marketing33:28 What Alan wishes he knew five years ago34:49 Explaining product management to non-product peopleOur HostsLily Smith enjoys working as a consultant product manager with early-stage and growing startups and as a mentor to other product managers.
