Without it, I can just as well ssh into another box.
> but the point is the SHA-1, as far as Git is concerned, isn't even a security feature. It's purely a consistency check. The security parts are elsewhere, so a lot of people assume that since Git uses SHA-1 and SHA-1 is used for cryptographically secure stuff, they think that, Okay, it's a huge security feature. It has nothing at all to do with security, it's just the best hash you can get. ... [1]

So Torvalds used SHA-1 purely because he needed a hash function with no other property than identifying content.
The post downplays the usefulness of versatility. I disagree. I'd prefer not to play the "which image format is best for this image and this use case" game and having to transcode between them. For instance, it would be great if I could have an HTML gallery showing pictures of my files as I store them on harddisk. Today these are JPEG, because it's the lowest common denominator. WEBP, AVIF are not supported photography tools (e.g. https://support.captureone.com/hc/en-us/articles/36000262921...) and I don't expect support to ever be added since it is not formats intended for photography.
> During discovery in the case, Will Moye, one of the plaintiffs’ attorneys, found a five-page document called “Citation Overlay,” which appeared to have been generated by AI. Moye recognized the Citation Overlay document as being from ChatGPT, and demanded all of the prompts Autenrieth used from 3M’s lawyers. The deposition was paused for three hours while they were gathered, and Moye was given 350 pages of ChatGPT conversations that Autenrieth had when creating the report.

Some games allow browsing files locally for savegames, music libray, ... . Imagine if you could do that on the cloud VM.
The reason that they want a reboot is that they do not want to support a system using two versions of the same library at the same time, let's say ntdll. So they would have to close any program using that library before programs that use the new version can be started. That is equivalent to a reboot.
And I completely understand the reason. For a long time when Firefox would update on Linux, the browser windows still open were broken; it opened resources meant for the updated Firefox with the processes runnung the non-updated Firefox. The Chrome developers mentioned [2] that the "proper" solution would be to open every file at start and pass that file descriptor to the subprocesses so all of them are using the same version of the file. Needless to say, resource usage would go up.

> This ticket is rather long and has a lot of irrelevant content regarding this new topic. If I need to bring in a colleague I do not want them to have to wade through all the irrelevant context. If you would like, please open a new issue with regards to how we support middlebox compatibility.
The author turns this into:
> The GitHub issue comment left at the end leads me to believe that they aren't really interested in RFC compliance. There isn't a middleground here or a "different way" of implementing middlebox compatibility. It's either RFC compliant or not. And they're not.
This is a bad-faith interpretation of the maintainer's response. They only asked to open a new, more specific issue report. The maintainer always answered within minutes, which I find quite impressive (even after the author ghosted for months). The author consumed the maintainer's time and shouldn't get the blame for the author's problems.

1. BusyBox is a single executable that executes different commands based on which symlink was used to call it
2. Bash puts itself into compatibility mode if invoked as "sh"
3. "ping" can be invoked as "ping4" or "ping6"
4. Some of git's subcommands are symlinks back to the main executable
5. Clang switches to C++ mode if invoked as "clang++"
6. AppArmor profiles activate on file paths
The tracking not malicious. YouTube has a legitimate interest to verify views, e.g. to recommend popular videos to others. If a view counter was increased by just invoking an API, view counts could be manipulated easily. Also see the video [1] from ... 13 years ago ... so it might be slighly outdated. Just slightly.
The legal situation with VPNs and traveling between regions is the same as with any internet service.

I don't think there is an official list. It is security-related and changes over time

Best example: flight seats. Economy class fills the plane, but business and first class are the money makers [1].
I was surprised that most of it is is just tone mapping. It looks too green-ish to me, needing some white balancing, but realistic.
I think Video games are intentionally over-saturated and contrasty to make them look better, just as paintings are[1]. I took many screenshots in Horizon Zero Dawn that would be look bland if it was realistic like the modfified GTA5 footage above[2]. You also don't want animation movies[3] with realistic tone mapping. But for a horror game you would do exactly that, it's about immersion (or you would never be frightened), not beauty.
