I believe their podcast “The Daily” also had an episode on it, even got the original lawyer that discovered the trick. It’s a pretty good podcast for those who may not know about it

Not pretending to be in the same league as The Daily, but we have a more tech-focused interview with Teel Lidow (the guy I think you're talking about - he's the lawyer who founded FairShake, the company in that NYT article) for the Anvil podcast, along with their tech lead.

Fun fact - the entire thing was prototyped by the lawyers using no-code systems, then only rewritten with an actual Web framework when they had proven out the idea:

It definitely predated Teel by nearly a decade.
Do you know which episode?
I wasn’t close.

Different podcast but that’s the episode. The Daily is still good.. the one linked above is good as well
