That's a bit surprising, given DDG uses Bing, Bing is Microsoft and Microsoft owns Github.

Did you try the same search with Bing, or have an example to share?

I non-ironically have a certain favorite brand of bacon mostly because it comes with 12 slices. .

I still prefer metric for other measurements.

Do you have standard Firefox with default options that does this? This has not been my experience.

You could try out with a new profile if it works out the same.

Perhaps many, but I have over 500 accounts in my password manager, yet none of have been leaked per the password exposure report (which I assume is based on the https://haveibeenpwned.com/ database).

So perhaps the problem is overblown in practice, assuming you don't use the same password in many sites.

Realistically, how often does this happen?

Maybe find a solution when it happens.

That's pretty low bar for calling something a "quirk". The whole ML family, so OCaml, SML, Haskell, F# and perhaps a the new distant relative Rust call it also it None.

And it's not even the same thing: null means pointer to nothing, while None means no value.

How is None a quirk?

Well, except perhaps for the fact that Discord has a Linux version, while the Facebook App doesn't.

And—clearly!—it seems rather popular as well.

Right on! People should only share news articles that pertain to my interests.

Where should they be "taking" funding instead?

In theory, yes. But if you follow the link and that leads to downloading the JS and running it, you're already too late inspecting it.

And even if you review it once (and it wasn't too large or obfuscated via minification), the next time you load a page, the JS can be different. I guess there could be a web browser extension for pinning the code?

The only practial alternative I know of is to have a local client you can review once (and after updates).
