The European Union is pressing ahead with legislation to heavily regulate companies like Apple, setting plans to force "gatekeepers" to open up access to hardware and software, and even set up an internal department to meet new rules, according to an endorsed agreement from the European Parliament's Internal Market Committee. Apple will be forced to give me access to all their hardware? Sign me up!

Matt Hobbs v2.0 💉💉💉💉 on Twitter: "🧵As I mentioned last week https://t.co/CcU3PLPTpj removed jQuery as a dependency for all frontend apps, meaning 32 KB of minified & compressed JS was removed. So let's see what difference this has made for users[^]
The discussion at Slashdot:
Why Gov.UK Stopped Using jQuery - Slashdot[^]
Is this reasonable when you're using 3rd party libraries, or at all? Folks on slashdot make the argument that jQuery isn't needed because modern browsers behave better, and that standard javascript does all the same stuff nowadays. (I don't know enough about the nuances to have an opinion either way.)
The twitter poster shows some graphs that highlight the benefits of getting rid of jquery, but never once mentions other frameworks, like Angular, NodeJS, or TypeScript (none of which I know anything about).

From my point of view, the main point is, that meanwhile it is really easy to replace the functionality of jQuery by vanilla js. And from that standpoint it is pretty ok not to use jq anymore.

Well, I'm using telerik ui and can't get rid of jquery, as it appears to be a dependency.

The DoJ needs to push Congress to make this decision into Law. Otherwise the next President could reverse it.

It'll be a bit harder than that. The juicy quotes in the article are not something written by the current administration's justice department; they're from last year's 6-3 Supreme Court decision in Van Buren v. United States.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

This paragraph from the article makes my point very, very clear:
Quote: The new DOJ policy attempts to allay fears about the CFAA’s broad and ambiguous scope following a 2021 Supreme Court ruling that encouraged reading the law more narrowly. The ruling warned that government prosecutors’ earlier interpretation risked criminalizing a “breathtaking amount of commonplace computer activity,” laying out several hypothetical examples that the DOJ now promises it won’t prosecute. That change is paired with a safe harbor for researchers carrying out “good-faith testing, investigation, and/or correction of a security flaw or vulnerability.” The new rules take effect immediately, replacing old guidelines issued in 2014.
First, SCOTUS blew it by not simply ruling the entire Law unconstitutional as being so vague on what a cybercrime is so it violates the 4th Amendment's "no unreasonable" modifier for searches and seizures. Second, the fact that the DOJ has changed the interpretation twice on how this Law is to be enforced points to the fact that the next administration could change it again, making it impossible for anyone to actually comply with this Law.
