@prologic@twtxt.net Wikipedia claims sha1 is vulnerable to a “chosen-prefix attack”, which I gather means I can write any two twts I like, and then cause them to have the exact same sha1 hash by appending something. I guess a twt ending in random junk might look suspcious, but perhaps the junk could be worked into an image URL like
. If that’s not possible now maybe it will be later.git only uses sha1 because they’re stuck with it: migrating is very hard. There was an effort to move git to sha256 but I don’t know its status. I think there is progress being made with Game Of Trees, a git clone that uses the same on-disk format.
I can’t imagine any benefit to using sha1, except that maybe some very old software might support sha1 but not sha256.

Interesting.. QUIC isn’t very quick over fast internet.
QUIC is expected to be a game-changer in improving web application performance. In this paper, we conduct a systematic examination of QUIC’s performance over high-speed networks. We find that over fast Internet, the UDP+QUIC+HTTP/3 stack suffers a data rate reduction of up to 45.2% compared to the TCP+TLS+HTTP/2 counterpart. Moreover, the performance gap between QUIC and HTTP/2 grows as the underlying bandwidth increases. We observe this issue on lightweight data transfer clients and major web browsers (Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Opera), on different hosts (desktop, mobile), and over diverse networks (wired broadband, cellular). It affects not only file transfers, but also various applications such as video streaming (up to 9.8% video bitrate reduction) and web browsing. Through rigorous packet trace analysis and kernel- and user-space profiling, we identify the root cause to be high receiver-side processing overhead, in particular, excessive data packets and QUIC’s user-space ACKs. We make concrete recommendations for mitigating the observed performance issues.

游戏《上古卷轴5》称得上为「神作」吗？
在2011年11月11日这个整整齐齐的日子里，旗下单人RPG《上古卷轴III：晨风》、《上古卷轴IV：湮灭》和《辐射3》连续三作蝉联年度游戏桂冠的Bethesda Game Studios推出了一款至今仍在各个“史上最伟大电子游戏”列表中不断抛头露面的《上古卷轴V：天际》。
《天际》发售11年后，Bethesda Game Studios的单人RPG已经连续五作都获得年度游戏称号，但《天际》在无数玩家心中却是连BGS自己都未能超越的那个典范之作。《天际》并非开放世界RPG鼻祖，也并非类型缔造者或各方面的登峰造极者，但BGS却给这款游戏的各个方面赋予了绝妙的平衡，正是这样的恰到好处让《天际》如同iPhone定义智能手机一般，定义了我们目前所见的开放世界类别。《天际》立于开放世界品类之标杆，[《塞尔达传说：旷野之息》总监藤林秀麿认为](//link.zhihu.com/?target=https%3A//www.gcores.com/link%3Fta … ⌘ Read more
