   Interesting github broke all the checksums of their tags because they wanted to save 2% CPU time while making git archive creation 17% slower for everyone else instead of just caching the release archive a bit longer... https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34587884

   oh and they managed to bring down so much infra that relied on stable checksums at the same time because they never guaranteed "the stability of checksums for automatically generated archives." https://github.blog/changelog/2023-01-30-git-archive-checksums-may-change/ 🤡

     Anyone paranoid would think that Musk or MS bought github and that it was no longer community owned.

     They seem to have reverted that change though

     Adrian Cochrane repeated this.
