Clearinet can now import Chromium NetLogs.

Clearinet can now parse pasted Data URIs for content and add it to the Web Exchanges list.

Clearinet can now open and save SAZ files, including password protected SAZ files. It writes using exclusively 256bit AES encryption, but will open SAZ files saved using 128bit AES and 56 bit (effective) PKWare algorithms.

This is kinda bonkers, y'all. Some folks need Clearinet to support the HAR file format. Okay, last time that only took me like maybe 12 hours or so to add. Let's get cracking.

I guess before I go write a bunch of code, maybe I should try this Copilot thing. Let's just tell it to do my job.

🤯 I spent more time saving a HAR file out of Firefox than it took for Copilot to implement an importer for Clearinet.

Me: "Okay, Copilot, make an exporter for HAR now." Copilot: "Here you go. Oh, I also fixed your code that loads importers because you wrote it wrong, meatbag."

Saved a HAR File from Firefox. Imported into Clearinet. Saved to SAZ file. Reloaded the SAZ file. Exported to a new HAR file. Loaded in Chrome and Firefox. It just works!

That was so fast, and I've got a few minutes before my next meeting. Maybe knock off one more todo? Me: "Activate the best inspector by calling the ScoreForSession method." Copilot: "Done. Also, you meant ScoreForExchange. Put me in the Credits file, won't you ;) ?"

One mildly fun thing about Clearinet is that the folks at Progress/Telerik have made Fiddler startup so slow that Clearinet startup is blindingly fast. (Actual runtime performance still lags. Fiddler had a lot of UI performance optimizations I need to rediscover).

"Hey, Gemini, some people won't have a Windows client handy. Make me a JavaScript page that converts SAZ files to HAR files." (5 seconds pass) Gemini: "Okay, here you go."...

(Three minutes pass while I try it out) Me: "Hey, you're corrupting the binary bodies. Here's a screenshot." (5 seconds pass) Gemini: Oops. Here you go.
