On Firefox, I use a uBlock Origin script to block Twitch ads. (Normal filters don't work on Twitch.) Is it possible to block Twitch ads with uBO-Lite as well?

The problem isn't the IDE, but that we are still using a programming language 24 years old.

Some people in the comments claim CS was used for compliance reasons. Some others claim Windows & CS do not offer warranties. How can a product satisfy the compliance check-box, if it does not offer the warranty and not accept liability for the related features?

Kagi is pretty good, but as someone living in a 3rd world country, it is too expensive. They say 300 queries/month is enough for almost everyone, but I've almost reached that amount in just a few days. And few cents per query adds up when I do multiple searches per topic, times ten for currency weakness.
AI search engines like perplexity.ai are too slow, and I end up clicking the referenced links anyway.
Once my Kagi credits are used up, I'll go back to DDG, which has better results than google in my experience. Though reddit being gone makes it hard to tell rn.

There is the esoteric "Cosmological Natural Selection" theory that predicts the discrepancies. This guy at https://theeggandtherock.substack.com/archive explains his version of this theory (albeit in an emotional way) that I find a pleasant read.
