Doesn't surprise me at all. Implementing right-to-left support in a product that's production-ready will require a lot of code rewrite.

In the server logs I see that RSS services tend to send the number of subscribers when they check for new content. It's kind of a useful data point, and I could imagine the controversy if RSS services made an attempt to share more.

Jekyll has most of what you're looking for as a plug in: jekyll-admin[0]. It doesn't handle authentication, so you'll need to put /admin under authentication on the web server level, but it allows you to edit and write p

You are absolutely correct. This law could have such effect. More realistically, this is a problem that has no easy technical solution that originates from a law that still isn't adopted. If I were an owner of such platform, I wouldn&#

That's a few seconds too much. If it were a free OS where you could upgrade to get rid of the ads, I wouldn't mind it. But it's not. It's an operating system whose basic price is over $100 and you cannot get rid of them

I've seen no comment here ever praising Google's actions in China here, and I'm very doubtful I will. That said, this particular product, which has nothing to do Google's business with China, is absolutely crucial for pe

Can we get a rename of this story? "Alphabet's Jigsaw" would be more appropriate. Jigsaw is, at best, a sibling of Google, not a part of Google. It is explained in the very first sentence, but comments so far don't seem
