No. The API is correctly named, but I can see how it could be misleading (and concerning!)
That API allows websites to programmatically go somewhere in your history. It can go forward, back, or to a specific point in your history, but it can’t see what that history is, it can only go back 3 pages back or forward 2 pages for example. It doesn’t actually know the history, it just navigates to those points in history. So Google isn’t going to know that you were on Pornhub 3 pages ago, for example.
Haha also yearly for me. I have actually written a small utility in rust that interacts with mysql, but it was basically just transposing python to rust, plus it’s hacky as hell and I didn’t really learn anything.
I’ve stuck that rust book in the “one day” silo, along with the guitar, learning French, eating healthy, and getting enough sleep. One day.
Nice! Just in time for my yearly “I should finally learn rust” and then forget about it a week later habit.
This is from Insurrection, right?
That’s actually pretty neat!
I said a few, friend 😛 I agree it’s not a big deal, but for developers that are totally entrenched in that ecosystem it might be alarming. Hence OP’s post.
That is disturbing. From my perspective, anyway. There are already so many great (and more appropriate) stacks for web backends, why Frankenstein a Frankenstein into it?
Actually, if you really care about quality and types on the front end rust+wasm is not a bad idea 🤔
Now that I’ve typed that and read it back, were people using TypeScript for anything other than front-end web dev?
Expect to see more posts like this. With a few projects announcing they’re dropping support for TypeScript we’re going to have developers worrying that this tech that they’ve sunk so much time into is suddenly becoming obsolete, so they’re going to evangelise hard in favour of it as a defence strategy. Same thing happened when Perl went out of flavour.
Yeah, that lack of startup capital is why I’m not doing it already. A bunch of us are saving to pool money together to self-finance. You can also just start with a couple of nice trailers (which you wouldn’t be able to charge as much for, of course) and gradually work towards full cottages. Some cottages in areas I frequent around here are just trailers and are still going for like $300 CAD a night in the middle of September.
At least insurance should protect you against total loss?
Exactly, cottage rentals for income. To supplement farming and other ventures, anyway.
I’m lucky that my work is 99.9% remote, so as long as I can acquire a stable internet connect I can continue to work out there if needed. Existing entirely in the woods is incredibly appealing.
Already planning on it here in Canada once my friends and I have the money for what we want to do.
Farming (+greenhousing) and some cottage rentals on the side.
Peace out, modern society!
Weird. I run the same setup as you (Firefox on Android with Bitwarden and SwiftKey) and I don’t think I’ve ever experienced that. How much RAM does your device have? Do you have a lot of other apps running? It sounds like it is purging the page from memory when you’re switching away.
Wait, how’d you get that with Bell? I’m pretty sure my plan is the same speeds for like… double that amount
I don’t believe that’s possible. I think at one point there was a way to disable all access to the history API, but I don’t believe that option exists anymore. Additionally, it would break a lot of websites.
Unfortunately I think this is probably a result of the way YouTube implements their “auto play next video” feature, and they are unlikely to change that.
An option might be using an alternative YouTube front-end, rather than using the YouTube site, but I don’t have a lot of experience with those. (other people on here do though)
