Does not seem like much point in going to 2019 from what is said in the link. Seems like this one should be free for what little it appears to offer.

They're going to rename the GitHub GVFS (Git Virtual File System), and they're looking for ideas.
Globally Accessible Feckless File System (GAFFS)

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

git (n.) a person who is deemed to be despicable or contemptible.
Among other synonyms to git, we have:
crumb stinker rat rotter puke bum skunk stinkpot lowlife
Personally, I prefer rat, which would make the new acronym RVFS.

Intel's 18-core i9 CPU is still impressive, but that's last year's news. Today at Computex, Intel SVP Gregory Bryant demoed a 28-core processor running at 5GHz. This is why I've been treating my organs so good. I don't need a heart, right?

Of course the problem always is figuring out what can be done in parallel. Since Moore's law is not defunct, only way to get significant performance increase is more processors. The days of waiting a year to get double the performance on a single core or dual core processor are long over.

Listed in the developer release notes for both iOS and macOS, Apple is deprecating support for what are now their legacy graphics and compute APIs: OpenGL, OpenGL ES, and OpenCL. Instead, Apple is strongly encouraging developers to use their proprietary Metal API, which has been available for a few years now. Hmmm. OK maybe don't vote for Apple.

Wonder if ANGLE could be modified to use Metal as the lowest layer.

Anyone remember the mantra "Embrace, Extend, Extinguish"?
What with the embracing then dumping of Open Standards, the attempts to lock-in customers and developers to their platforms, and similar strategies, it looks like Apple are working from Microsoft's old songbook.
