For those of you who are not Americans and fed up with the pervasiveness of stupid US politics (and propaganda) on Reddit, here are the custom filters I use on uBlock Origin to block most of it: - h…

It wasn't an answer - it was a comment adding to his question expressing my surprise that developers still are making this kind of mistake.

any sanitization can thus be bypassed. - Then you are obviously not doing it properly. It should also be obvious nobody is talking about frontend validation when talking about syncing a database.…

I'd have thought that in this day and age every developer would know by now the importance of sanitizing user input before a web application accepts it? Your doubt has given me some pause ...…

Islam is a very practical religion. And that applies to how it treats wealth and socialism. Like many religion it emphasises the importance of being good, and doing good, to enjoy the rewards of that …

I would say there is a high socialist elements - a parent doesn't have to sacrifice their economic comfort or even time just to give their kids a better education or better lifestyle. But many do…

"Market-friendly political environment" did not bring the higher HDI that Kerala has now (and still prioritises), even before its economic development started. That was because of its left- …

But is uBlock Origin 100% supported on it, is the big question? What with Chrome fighting ad blockers, Chromium clone browsers, like Vivaldi, don't seem to be doing much on that aspect to reassur…

Like I said, black-and-white thinking - some company CEO supporting some particular public policy of an administration doesn't make them a part of "their" camp and hence your "enem…
