I normally avoid that too, I find it hurts readability more than helps, plus a proper IDE will separate it with color anyway.

But yeah, the newline comment doesn't apply to this.

Not like that, lol

Just saying, instead of this monstrosity

CreateOrderRequest(user,
                   productDetails,
                   pricingCalculator,
                   order => order.internalNumber)

Just use

CreateOrderRequest(
    user,
    ...

Putting the first argument on a separate line.

Same if you have an if using a bunch of and (one condition per line, first one on a new line instead of same line as the if) and similar situations.

Anything for indent (barely matters, as long as the editor forces it to stay consistent), and fuck alignment, just put things on a new line.

Can you post any source at all that would back your claims? Or any technical details at all?

Neither the actual proposal https://github.com/RupertBenWiser/Web-Environment-Integrity/blob/main/explainer.md#what-information-is-in-the-signed-attestation, nor the article itself seem to show that there would be a difference when it comes to privacy.

The entire problem with this proposal is that it limits client choice, similar to how Google Play integrity API on Android restricts some apps from running on rooted/unlocked phones.

That same problem obviously also exists in Apple's implementation.

This may not be a popular opinion, but if the app is large enough, just use Electron.

Yes, people using it as the main messaging app is still preferable to the situation in the US where people on different mobile platforms can't message each other without bullshit compatibility issues and bubble colors.

At least here it doesn't matter what platform you're on - including desktops and the web - and as a result nobody cares.

Of course, the same is true for almost every other messaging service too, and there are better ones out there.

So you're more inclined to believe any online misinformation that happens to agree with your priors?

I.e. the exact same problem you're indirectly complaining about?

So you have zero evidence that this is actually happening?

If it gives you video from the same channel instantly after blocking, that means nothing, these changes take a while to propagate, YouTube is a distributed system. Give it a few minutes to rebuild the feed and then try.

How are people upvoting this crap?

Ironically, the larger market share of macOS (compared to back then), mobile platforms, and the fact that Chrome is now the #1 browser means there's a much weaker case for there being a monopoly now.

That ship has sailed a long time ago. Tons of cars on the roads now have built-in cameras. Cameras that are ultimately under centralized control of the car manufacturer.

Seatbelts I don't really care about, because with that people mostly just affect themselves (or others in the same car), but for other infractions it makes sense.

The real issue is whether you can trust that the data will only be used for its intended purpose, as right now there are basically no good mechanisms to prevent misuse.

If we had cameras where you could somehow guarantee that - no access for reason other than stated, only when flagged or otherwise by court order, all access to footage logged with the audit log being publicly available, independent system flagging suspicious accesses to any footage, etc. - it wouldn't be too bad.

Compared to all the private cameras that exist in cars these days...

Lead was "fixable" for then-future generations, not for those already affected.
