Another article by someone that tried to be a programmer, couldn't hack it, and now feels qualified to comment on the industry.
Nothing to see here...

var returnNull = ReturnNull();
_ = returnNull.Value;

private static NullObj ReturnNull()

return null;
}
internal class NullObj
{
internal string Value { get; set; }
}" I would send the programmer who wrote this for drug testing.

Dubbed Oblivious DNS-over-HTTPS, or ODoH for short, the new protocol makes it far more difficult for internet providers to know which websites you visit. The protocol will require a different dongle with each new version, and cables are available separately.
Being highly oblivious myself, I approve of this new protocol.

Extremely offensive - it should be "'cause there's bugger all", not "it's".
