Downloading the PDFs [1] and comparing their sizes takes less than a minute. They're the exact same size. Yet here we have Linus making one bet after another that size has to be different for this attack.
Now to be fair, he also keeps repeating that he hasn't seen the attack yet. Which leads me to question why is this post interesting to HN? Is it to show how Linus aimlessly speculates and gets his guesses wrong?
