Mm-hmm. All right, let's do some follow-up, and we have to start with a genuine and heartfelt thank you to our ATP listeners. It is no longer September, so it is no longer Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. However, during the month of Septemberβ€” Relay and ATP, but mostly Relay, raised over $1 million. As I sit here tonight, $1,061,652.04. And that is truly incredible.

Look at what we have accomplished together. Truly, we have accomplished this together. And that's something to be extremely, extremely proud of. And I hope that anyone who donated feels some amount of ownership over this because you do have some amount of ownership over this. I will, as a final note for this year, I will remind you that corporate matching is a thing.

And if you go to stju.org slash Relay, there's a little bit of information about employer matching and how you can get credit or how Relay can get credit for an employer match, perhaps based on your own donation. So please check it out. But don't feel like you can't donate for the rest of the year or the beginning of next year. You certainly can. That's fine. Nobody's going to complain.

When the first built-in camera was designed for the first Intel iMac, user notification was designed into the hardware. The camera board was separate, not integrated into the computing board. At the specific direction of a key individual, the light was hardwired directly into the board's power circuit. If the board was receiving power, the light was turned on.

If the board was not receiving power, the light was off. No software was involved. This design was passed on to the laptop team. And yeah, this is just anti-laptop propaganda. I don't want to read the rest of this. The design was passed on to the laptop. Don't extrapolate that laptops are bad, just from this one example.

This design was passed on to the laptop team. Much later, news of the camera light hack mentioned on the previous episode of ATP went around Apple. Alarms went off, circuit designs were laid out on tables, and a lot of shouting happened. Turns out, the laptop team had later quote-unquote improved the design, accidentally making this hack possible.
