Safari's date-picker is the cause of 1/3 of our customer support issues

...and obviously we're building a workaround. But I'm absolutely flabbergasted that a standard <input type="date"> HTML field, in a standard browser, from a company that bases its reputation good design, could be so dreadful.

The context

I'm the developer for a startup that sells a genetic test to recommend medications for high blood pressure. For medical reasons we need to know our customers' birth date. Most of our customers are in their 60s or older. We've found that many of them use iPads or iPhones. And they're the ones who complain to our customer support that our site is unusable.

FWIW: I (@rondy) am not the creator of the content shared here, which is an excerpt from Edmond Lau's book. I simply copied and pasted it from another location and saved it as a personal note, before it gained popularity on news.ycombinator.com. Unfortunately, I cannot recall the exact origin of the original source, nor was I able to find the author's name, so I am can't provide the appropriate credits.

Install dnsmasq

Via brew or other method

Set up DNS resolver order

In order to work on every connection and on any TLD, dnsmasq needs to be the first DNS resolver receving the query.

And since dnsmasq is a local process, all DNS queries need to go to 127.0.0.1

On macOS, /etc/resolv.conf is automaticaly created, depending on a variety of things (network settings, etc), so it cannot be edited.
