in case it doesn't show: there was a sarcastic tone in that toot
"Suspected binaries found in the repository" ... then lists like a thousand text files. 😂

@bagder I was about to mention that

@bagder THANKS are 100% a binary file as well as FAQ!
@bagder well I mean, they do consist of binary they do, but then my question is what is not binary then.
@bagder Seems like it's just checking the extension :/
@bagder the times have changed. You are a fan of AI now.

@bagder

You probably used some heathen foreign character set instead of the ASCII :-)

@bsdphk @bagder They must be checking the extension or lack of thereof. Clearly, no extension must mean binary, sigh.
@bagder I would wager that these were "identified" as binaries because they don't have an extension. Which… ​​
@bagder And then they don't even work! I just tried to run FAQ.exe and it didn't answer a single of my questions!!one!eleven! 🤡
@dec_hl
Of course the FAQ doesn't answer questions, logically its only duty is to list them. You seek FQA (Frequently Questioned Answers), as per 9front.
@bagder
@bagder For ICU4X it claims a binary called headerFile and fails to complain about a checked-in wasm library.
@bagder To the best of my knowledge they are using https://github.com/ossf/pvtr-github-repo-scanner to check these controls.
