Oh that makes sense. I didn’t consider it might be treated as a char

"1" + 2 === "12"
is not unique to JS (sans the requirement for the third equals sign), it’s a common feature of multiple strongly typed languages. imho it’s fine.
EDIT: I did some testing:
What it works in:
What produces a number, instead of a string:
What it doesn’t work in:
And MATLAB appears to produce 51, wtf idk
I was under the impression it wasn’t even truly private, nevermind encrypted. Not actually sure how it works though
On Lemmy you can’t exchange email addresses though… else you’d be exposing the addresses publicly and that’s also rife for spam
This is why I rarely get on board with new Google products nowadays. I know they’ll get half assed support and then be killed off really quickly.
Usually they’re building the website with browserlist and polyfills, and they specify how old a browser they wish to support, usually by analysing percentages of public usage, or they allow types only supported in newer browsers. Meaning if they use a feature only available in newer browsers, then it won’t be automatically backported to support older browsers.
But that’s only if they actually use those features, they’re just available to them. And it’ll only break in those places they do use them, which could be quite little of the site.
So often it’s just “we can’t guarantee it’ll work in your old browser and enough of our users use newer browsers that we’ll block you and not care”.
I have ad blockers everywhere, except native mobile apps. I’ve clicked on an Instagram ad for shirts. I bought the shirts. People keep complimenting me on the shirts. No regrets there
That’s a bit misleading to say like that. Go to the website, scroll to the footer and click on “Legal”. Your instance, feddit.de, has a legal notice, with a privacy contact person, mentioning you can request data erasure, and detailing where your data goes. Mine, lemmy.world, has a number of in depth legal documents attached there.
However, yes, other instances they are federated with might not take it as seriously though, and if all your data is going there too, then that’s a hole in your data privacy.
People equate maths to programming, but I think if it more as a creative, problem solving field. Most real world coding problems don’t have a precise single correct way to solve them; it’s more like architecting a building: you have multiple goals and a lot of freedom in how you achieve them and to what degree
Like my oven clock. Six buttons with cryptic symbols on them. You can press them, push them and hold multiple buttons together and it does different things with different equally cryptic symbols appearing on the LCD. Sometimes somebody accidently pushes a button and it gets stuck in a weird state where it refuses to cook. At least I’ve worked out the correct key combo to set the current time
But they don’t plan to drop MV2 though
YouTube Music still has this at least
