Collation in a database determines case sensitivity in MSSQL. If the collation has "cs", it's case-sensitive. If it has "ci", it is case-insensitive. Collation is configurable at the server level, but usually one go

macOS hasn't used HFS+ as the default FS in what 10+ years? APFS is case-insensitive by default. It can be formatted to be case-sensitive. I don't think you can change sensitivity on the fly like Windows.

Windows can be configured to have whole-volume case-sensitivity with NTFS, or even directory-specific case-sensitivity. However, case-sensitivity is user-unfriendly. README.DOCX, Readme.docx, ReAdMe.DocX -- which document did they really wa

That's a very narrow view of what a WAF does. You may want to review the OWASP ruleset at https://coreruleset.org/ . However, this is just the ruleset. WAF vendors usually offer features above and beyond OWASP rule pars

Unknown or unforeseen attacks. The WAF ruleset can be updated much faster than code. WAFs also provide flexibility in how requests are responded to, or even disallow access from IP ranges, certain browsers, etc. WAFs do throw false positive

Locks are a speedbump for a lockpick. Doors are a speedbump for a car. Well yeah, sure, doesn't mean I'm going to have an open doorframe or a door without a lock.

Defense in-depth. I would hope few would want a vulnerable web app and simply protect it via a WAF. But just because your web app is 'invulnerable' doesn't mean you should forgo the WAF.

File system filters are pluggable kernel drivers. For example, ProcMon (Sysinternals tool) monitors file systems via a file system filter -- so fun fact, if you outright disable file system filters on a ReFS volume, you won't get any P

Proton relies on Linux sys APIs not available on macOS, but the Porting Toolkit is available. I've been able to "play" Noita on my M2 Air (granted the perf sucks, but that's what I get for owning an Air). This discussion

NTFS/ReFS are not slow. But there is an extensible file system filter layer above them that can slow things down.

APIs are the last reason there aren't 'major' games on macOS. You've got architecture changes; PPC to Intel was a big loss of game compatibility, and then again when x86-32 support was removed from OS X nuked most of a u
