Aren't all browsers on iOS required to use webkit?

I thought all browsers published on iOS were Safari wrappers, or did that change?

Is this a new rule? I had my own browser published on the App Store about a year ago (as a solo dev).

This is why it’s better to use AdGuard only for its DNS blocking capability and not for DNS resolving - use a real resolver like unbound https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unbound_(DNS_server)

Not the GP, but I got a Rocketbook from my most recent workplace when I joined. Not quite a smart pen, more like smart paper - each page is grid paper with a QR code at the bottom that you scan with their app to digitise.

There are a lot more JS and Native developers compared to Flutter/Dart developers in the West. Plus fear-mongering around Google dropping development of Flutter.

Riverpod does a lot more than just state management - it also handles dependency injection and reactive caching. Here’s a great guide on using Riverpod: https://codewithandrea.com/articles/flutter-state-management...

This is exactly what the AGPL was made to combat against. But open source devs still choose more permissive licenses first - presumably to attract corporate clients to use their product (and because devs are suckers to large corporate inter

Off-topic, but what SAS controllers are you having trouble with? Was going to get some for my NAS, would be good to get some insight on what to get and expect!

What is the expected skill level of an “experienced hire” if not mid-senior? Especially from a consulting/contracting company.

I work with Accenture devs too. I can’t say i’ve heard of that policy or experienced behaviour like that, however it wouldn’t surprise me - Accenture definitely oversell the skill level of their devs, I can totally seem them pulling that so

OP point is that the second dev isn’t being billed as junior though and is in fact being billed as a senior, despite obviously not being one. It’s Accenture that’s making the profit here, by billing for 2 seniors but only supplying 1 (actua

Yeah we all thought machines would automate menial labour allowing us to focus on creativity and passion. Looks like it’s the exact opposite.

Because it’s written in C# and relatively new. Unbound is written in C so should consume less resources, has been around longer and has been vetted – FreeBSD and OpenBSD replaced BIND with Unbound. The one downside to Unbound is that there’

Ditto, just recently set mine up this way. Will never go back to ISP or proprietary routers.

The real eye-opener is when you start redirecting DNS 53 requests to your own DNS server and block DoT/DoQ/DoH – so many devices/apps just trying to reach out to their hardcoded DNS servers for tracking/ad targeting.

9.9.9.9 from Quad9 is another great, free, pro-privacy alternative.

I do the same thing and am on 500mbps - don’t experience any issues

by vin047 3y ago
This is the way. Added Unbound as my upstream DNS server in recursive mode for extra privacy!

Hagezi blocklists are the current standard now: https://github.com/hagezi/dns-blocklists You could go for one of the Lite blocklists for the network wide, family friendly (non-breaking) list.

Doesn’t work for YouTube ads – they no longer load ads via DNS and instead embed them directly into the video feed. Ublock origin via the browser is the best way to block them. If you wish to use a client app, best bet is to sideload a 3rd

You can block HTTPS to known DoH providers. You can set up an alias in a firewall to load the list from https://public-dns.info/nameservers-all.txt . Its a bit of a cat-and-mouse game as it relies on that list being updated

Tried raycast but realised you can’t customise the GUI the way you can with Alfred – I have Alfred set up so it only takes up a minimal amount of space in the top corner of the screen (ala Spotlight pre-Yosemite). Submitted feedback to the
