Yes. If you ship any eBPF programs that utilize kprobes and/or read kernel structures that change between kernel versions, you have portability problems. See https://facebookmicrosites.github.io/bpf/blog/2020/02/19/bpf... for a good overview of the problem that CO-RE intends to solve.

I haven't heard this before. I presumed the author simply stopped updating the app. Can you elaborate?
Re:New York Subway X-Ray Area Maps

I've been interested in generating reasonably accurate 3D models of NYC subway stations for awhile. It always bothered me that routing stops the second you descend into the station. If anything, that is where you need it most because some of the stations are confusing and the signage varies in helpfulness. Visitors often do not even know what side of the platform to stand on.
I went so far as to purchase a Project Tango[1] tablet several years back. I was trying to automate some of the mapping work using SLAM[2] but did not get very far before real life took over. I would be very interested in picking this project back up, especially with the recent developments in AR/VR. If you are interested in helping out, please reach out. Email is in my profile.

The Go http client definitely has a bug that doesn't maintain the User-Agent across redirected requests.

Volleyballs generally have 3 parallel panels, while the older style footballs have 2.
