I hate the "fun" of debugging jQuery. I'd rather have a plain boring easy api.

Does Cross Platform here mean only Windows, Web and Mobile or Mac and Linux as well?

I guess it would be possible to run my own local DNS server that connects to these DoH servers. Does any DNS server support DoH? This could also allow the user to override domains using their /etc/hosts file in case DoH on Firefox doesn't support it.

Why is this supported at the application level instead of the OS? So other tools like ping or nslookup can use it too.

According to https://github.com/brave/adblock-rust they use a similar algorithm as uBlock Origin. So not really "new", just reimplemented in rust.

Is this v.c file not versioned in the GitHub repository?

Not for free. It's a service the owners of the website give to Google in exchange for letting you post. You are the product here.

Once I was working with a database with large integer ids loading them through json and showing them in the browser. There was a bug where ids didn't match when updating a record. The issue was that the json decoder for Javascript didn't handle large numbers, so an id like 12345678901234567 would show up as 12345678901234568. That was fun to debug.

I wonder if the interpreters will convert between BigInts and small ints automatically now? The backend side was PHP and it did so we never noticed the problem there.

Nice, but I'd really like it if the links were actual links so I can middle click to open in another tab.
