Looks cool! curious how you sourced and tagged the channels? We have a few popular anatomy channels in different languages[0], but I couldn’t find any of our videos when searching for “anatomy” and also results were quite mixed. Some videos

I’m no expert, but I think the main moat that Chrome has here is its web store where users find extensions and developers submit their extensions. There’s a review process which whilst far from perfect is labor intensive and still helps cat

IANAL and could be wrong here, but I don’t think it matters. Personal data is personal. Even if it’s posted publicly it’s still personal data. Email is personal data. Your name is personal data. Plus spam laws are a thing. In any case, at t

If you’re in Europe (or a citizen living outside) you can make a GDPR subject access request to get a copy of your data. Try to specifically ask for a record of how your data was obtained. And you can also ask to be deleted permanently. It

Data protection authorities don’t need to go through the courts. They have the authority to levy fines. They are by and large slow, understaffed, and in some cases allegedly criminally negligent or coerced into inaction. Try to file a GDPR

in theory, yes. In practice, good luck getting your complaint acted on. Enforcement of GDPR is a sad joke. To a point that there are law suits and criminal charges[0] against data protection authorities in some countries. [0] just one examp

is it still a problem?? recently bought a switch and only plugged to the official adapter that came with it, but my first thought was “too bulky” so was wondering if I can use my M1 air USB C charger on the go instead.

esbuild is great, but our only blocker for using it was that there was no way to control the number of chunks. On a moderately sized modular app, this can slow down things significantly[0] [0] https://github.com/evanw/e

I’m not sure this is the issue precisely. However there’s been rulings that ban using Google analytics simply because doing so means the user sends a request to Google, and the user IP address is considered personal data (look up Schrems II

I think that’s why the DRV might step in and force a freelancer to pay into the social security system if they have a single client. If I recall it also applies to foreign clients, but I’m not 100% sure how far it extends. It’s definitely e
