A standalone library would have to work with all the existing system facilities (e.g. NSS on Linux systems) to be not restricted to just resolv.conf entries, but to allow for all the various other methods of resolving names.
They were mandated by the EU. You don't get to pass crap laws of the form "show a banner or do {vague/impossible/unacceptable thing}" and then complain when 100% of people show a banner. That kind of inane immaturity is why the EU is so far behind and falling further.
Please don't fulminate on HN. You may not owe cookie banners better, but we're trying for a better style of conversation here. Please make an effort to observe the guidelines, which seek to make HN a place for curious conversation, not rage.
The Germany municipality of Tübingen implemented a "Verpackungssteuer" (tax on single-use packaging, utensils). It was fought by the local McDonald's franchisee up to the highest relevant court (Bundesverwaltungsgericht) and finally approved.
Dozens of other German municipalities were just waiting for the final decision to implement their own local tax.
At some point, if you have to write articles about the proper spelling of the name, maybe you should just accept the alternative names as well. Also looking at you Datadog and Cloudflare. (The employees of the second one are especially allergic to CloudFlare for some reason)
We tried very hard to convert FastMail to Fastmail and... it's been about 90% successful but there's definitely a bunch of things out there spelled the old way. We just joke about BIG M occasionally.
The very fundamental problem is just, that the fact that the process/application/service has a PID/displays a window does not equal to the fact, that the service/application is ready to serve requests/the user.
This is why there are protocols like sd_notify [1] or readinessProbe [2] to determine the actual state of the launched service/process/application.
The packing density seems quite inefficient to me, since the whole volume of the rotating cylinder is basically wasted space and only used for the lighting.
Wouldn't it be far more space-efficient to use a paternoster conveyor like arrangement?
On Android, notifications can use different channels/categories.
What is immediately worth a one-star review of an App for me (including the corresponding comment with the reasons), when it uses it "Important" channel to send me some ad or other stupid notification like "Please rate me".
One thing I've noticed on iOS is that often app updates seem to reset my preferences. Not every update, of course, but I notice notifications months/years after I am 100% positive I disabled that category previously.
iOS has different channels in Live Activities and "Time Sensitive" notifications. Live Activities are hard to miss because have very different style of UI (meant for active ongoing things like "current sporting event" and "pizza delivery tracker"), but most users don't notice "Time Sensitive" to take advantage of them until they turn on Notification Summaries. (Notification Summaries collect most notifications into a once-every-so-often, as you choose to schedule it, "newspaper", but Live Activities and "Time Sensitive" still show up immediately.)
Abusing "Time Sensitive" is also a "time to give a bad review" case for me, too.
