On the contrary, MV2 used onBeforeRequest which let extensions see what requests you were making. They could then take that data and use it for malicious purposes. MV3 doesn’t allow extensions to know what requests are being made, so extens

It looks like it’s a shared quota now with a minimum per extension [1]. Still sucks that the rules are static though. AdGuard devised a method to diff ruleset changes with the built in rules to generate dynamic rules between extension updat

It’s similar, but not the same. Safari lets you dynamically generate rules that are then compiled for privacy and efficiency. The limits were increased to 150000 rules per content blocker due to user demands [1]. And each extension can have

I’ve been using AdGuard. There are some limitations with MV3, but it’s not noticeable [1]. AdGuard uses dynamic rules for updating rules between extension updates and for custom user rules. There’s the option using their system level AdBloc

I'm not saying that the newer APIs are backwards compatible with the older ones. I'm saying that they're not which is why they are different APIs. WinRT is a bit different since you target a Windows SDK. But, likewise newer S

That's memory mapping. This is memory paging [1]. I.e. Windows pagefile.sys, Linux swap, macOS swap files. iOS does not have swap files, only memory compression. If you're on a Mac, open up Activity Monitor, go to Memory, and at t

I edited my original comment. The "It's a bit jank" part is still true though. When you enable running your app on macOS without compiling specifically for macOS with Mac Catalyst, it still uses Mac Catalyst, but transparentl

As much as I would like macOS on iPads, running macOS applications on an iPad without the Magic Keyboard would suck. Windows can do it though, so it's not really an excuse. But, in Microsoft's case, it's sort of different. Th

What would happen to the macOS applications when switching to iOS? iOS applications would be fine in macOS-mode (Mac Catalyst already exists). But, there isn't a good way to make macOS applications usable in iOS-mode.

The hardware was drastically different between Macs and iPhones when iOS was released. That was in 2007. Apple only unified the hardware in 2020. Over the *13* years, the operating systems have diverged so much that unifying them is a massi

They aren’t actually too similar. They both use XNU, but the memory model is completely different. On macOS memory can be paged to/from disk. On iOS it isn’t and applications must free memory when asked or be terminated [0]. iOS applic

Very PR. They link the USDA findings, but didn’t state that they were forced to stop operations. Instead, they make it sound like it was their choice for concerns towards customers. https://apnews.com/article/boars-head

The signature would use asymmetric encryption, so unless the attacker had access to the signing key, it would be impossible for the attacker to sign a modified version of the payload. EDIT: I see what you mean. radicaldreamer stated that a

One major usage of services meshes that I’ve come across is for the transparent L7 ALB. gRPC, which is now very common, uses long-running connections to multiplex messages. This breaks load-balancing because new gRPC calls, within a single
