Same. My home Unifi network is all integrated with PiHole and does DNS over HTTPS to CF. Having the 1.1.1.1 on my phone is great except when I'm at home and want it disabled.

Why do you think HTTPS would fix this? For the TLS case, there are enough MITM proxies, both in the Enterprise and elsewhere, to make this a real concern. There are also API Aggrig…

The "?api-version" approach in the doc is there for exactly the reason you call out. Azure uses this approach. By omitting "/v1.0" from the path it makes the actual URL's far more …

I don't think I've ever seen delta's done at-scale with actual temporal tables, but rather with transaction Id's of some sort. For example (based on the doc) when you register a de…

There's nothing wrong with RPC APIs. Other than being "Not Cool" due to the legacy of SOAP, they can deliver some very nice value. Various RPC mechanisms like Bond and Protocol Buf…

There are a number of examples to cite showing what you say isn't true. Allowing totally arbitrary OData $filter expressions does lead to problems, but recent versions of OData hav…

That particular example was chosen not because of OData, but because it required someone to type in a horribly long set of alphanumeric codes. There's no way a human can effectivel…

Delta queries are pretty easy, assuming you have a rich data store behind your data. As others have said, your data store needs to be able to say, "Show me changes since XYZ". Most…

It turns out that uploading files is hard. Files come in a variety of sizes, networks sometimes don't work, browser processes come-and-go, some users expect restart semantics, some…

"Success With Info" is something that just causes problems. The number of examples we found of "Success with Info" going horribly wrong was abundant. Turns out checking return code…

The API version header has a few problems. 1. Older proxies used to remove/strip headers they don't understand. 2. Frameworks and libraries don't always give access to n non-standa…
