I had exactly the same thought (Hi Tomas and Janos) :D
The game is really cool, well done! It feels like a modern twist on pacman, but with space alien snakes and upgradable super powers. Should make for a good lunch break game.
They do indeed feel like 2 completely different companies. Different hiring processes, different employment contracts, different cultures, different offices, different tools, different management structures, different benefits. The biggest change I've seen is that they now trade under the same ticker symbol.
> BTRFS has proven remarkably stable for a while now. A decade ago that wasn't quite as absolutely bulletproof, but today the situation is much different.
When I did a fresh install of Fedora 33 on my primary workstation 3 months ago, I had exactly the same rationale for sticking with the default BTRFS selection. "I'm sure it has come quite a long way since I last tried it, I would like to have some of those features, I know there are some large production installations now, and the fact that it's the default in Fedora is a sign of confidence from the community."
After 2 months of use, I ended up with a corrupt filesystem in the middle of my work day and could not find any way to recover from it other than to do a full reinstall and restore my files from a backup. This was on a single NVMe drive in a system running a few small VM's, a browser, a chat client, and a few terminals. Thankfully I only lost a day's worth of work, but that's the last time I install BTRFS on any of my personal systems.
> [...] it feels a bit odd that BTRFS is such a persistent target of slander & assault.
My experience is obviously anecdotal (as are all individual experiences), so I won't be surprised if you dismiss my comment like you did nullwarp's comment. But "slander & assault" just seems like a weird way to dismiss all critics of BTRFS at once, as if everyone is out to get BTRFS. Filesystems have a thankless job. Do it right, and most users will never even think about it. But lose a user's data once, and you've likely lost that user forever.
> A number of big names use BTRFS, including Facebook. I have yet to see any hyperscalers interested in ZFS.
ZFS is excellent for large arrays of spinning disks, but if you're using a bunch of fast SSD's, performance really sucks. There is a lot of lock contention contributing to that which isn't noticeable on slower devices. I can't speak to FB's environment, but if they're managing a large number of SSD's like most hyperscalers, then ZFS would probably get ruled out based on performance comparisons.
