gollark: Oh, I sort of did that. My resume uses a port of the weird NSO Group vulnerability to run a simulated CPU within the PDF with access to arbitrary memory, so it reads the contents of the computer it's on and uses machine learning™ to optimize its contents for whoever is looking at it.
gollark: Oh, `window[id]`, not *exactly*.
gollark: As in, exactly that.
gollark: Wait, isn't that actually a feature?
