Native EventSource doesn’t let you set headers ([issue](https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/2177)), so it’s harder to handle authentication.

Remember in that time, less web content meant major media outlets dominated news and entertainment on TV and newspapers.

Ideally, integration tests should not touch a real database. That would be more of an end-to-end test, that could be actually monitoring.
But mocking things are hard on Rust because of its strong type system, so this project can be useful.

Since iOS 11, turning Bluetooth off from the control center only puts Bluetooth on a timeout until the next morning instead of disabling it permanently, as one would expect. Even when it’s off, the antenna stays on, looking for new devices. You can turn it all the way off by digging into the settings menu, but as soon as you turn it on for any reason, the cycle starts again.

JQuery would make sense when we didn’t have querySelector and fetch API. I can’t think of any reason to use it today on a new project, there are not advantages over vanilla.

To me it seems that parent comment is intentionally agreeing with the author, and just adding his own perception (which corroborates to the point).

> what do we know for sure Google know and track about us?
For start, your entire search history. After you search, Google tracks how much time you spend on those sites with AdSense. Google reads our emails to scan for flights and to add appointments to calendar. It knows the places we go because Google Maps and the videos we watch online.
Google has plenty data to make an accurate profile of you, and you can see it’s inferences on your relationship status, income, employer and so on in your Google account[1]. (IIRC it was more complete some years ago, now it’s showing less categories or there’s another link I can’t find.)

How does this language implementations in the language itself works? Isn’t it trivial to implement any feature, given it’s already implemented? They use lower level features to implement higher level ones?

It doesn’t need to be switched, you can submit the project page anytime.

Bulma is smaller. But I feel CSS frameworks are not much flexible, which may explain their decay. Also, frontend modern tooling helps you build your own components with minimal CSS helpers, like Tailwind.

Zero control is a bigger problem. How would you stop people profiting from CSAM?

Not only he didn’t imagine candidates would Google interview questions, but he also didn’t sit and watch they write code. It’s not an interview, it's a take home assignment, but in-person.
You get very few signals just looking at the finished result. You should let the candidate ask you questions and progressively improve the solution. And you should progressively make the task more complex, because it’s not a binary evaluation. A good code interview must rank candidates.

As far as I know, there’s no specific button or action to trigger iCloud sync. I haven't notice issues, but I use the mobile Obsidian app much less frequently. It always seems updated to me.
This [source](https://help.noteplan.co/article/86-how-to-force-sync) says that opening the iCloud Drive on Finder will trigger sync. On the mobile Obsidian app, you can flicker the page down to download updated data, obviously it will only work if the more recent data was uploaded.

I love the simplicity and power of Obsidian. It also lets me sync desktop and iPhone for free via iCloud.
