Magika: AI powered fast and efficient file type identification
If you're curious, here's how I solved it for ruby back in the day. Still used magic bytes, but added an overlay on top of the freedesktop.org DB: https://github.com/mimemagicrb/mimemagic/pull/20

Can You Not use Applications Built with Older Versions of Ruby?
I don't think mimemagic works on Windows after the drama. I opened a PR for that a month ago but no one seems to care: https://github.com/mimemagicrb/mimemagic/pull/141

Perfect Motherf****** Website
"License, motherfucker"
I know the vulgarity of the statements is tongue in cheek, but this one has been reinforced lately by the "MIME Magic" debacle[1], mama mia.

Ruby off the Rails: Code library yanked over license blunder, sparks chaos for half a million projects
https://github.com/mimemagicrb/mimemagic/commit/749a7e59de480b7c0373acc4f8ceb4444352ba46#diff-2ea7e2364883967953ab518a8316b639e612b8a6f20eadb7b97939d91c8e2612

Rails 5.2.5, 6.0.3.6 and 6.1.3.1 have been released [removed dependency on mimemagic]
On the other hand mimemagic provides by_magic https://github.com/mimemagicrb/mimemagic#usage which does detection by heuristic. It's a radically different method for a radically different use case.

All versions of mimemagic on Rubygems.org are now MIT-licensed
Anyway, I created a PR addressing new Mimemagic not working on Windows https://github.com/mimemagicrb/mimemagic/pull/141

Who invented file extensions in file names?
https://www.darwinsys.com/file/
This is the authors website. Apparently yeah its not part of GNU utils, I had no idea, I knew it came with most Linux systems so I looked for the Debian package and found the site linked above.

TIL: Github seems to recognize ebuilds as a format. Is this a new github feature? Or has this been here since forever?

ELI5: Why do .jpg and .jpeg both exist?
Look into libmagic.

How do I make a transparent background on .ps or .eps file imported to groff
in installations of Linux, file is a command to retrieve some basic information about a file type. Because contrasting to the organization of Windows, the file extension in Linux can be less important for the file's use (even irrelevant), than the actual content.

Why does Linux file command shows java file as C++ source?
In this case, it's hitting this set of rules. I would guess it hits both class and public.

How many “encodings” are there?
But I don't think this is what you meant. I think your question is something more like: how many file formats are there? The Unix file command recognizes several thousand, and Wikipedia has a list. Of course these are only the most common, and it's hard to delineate what counts as a unique file format. (Is YAML one file format or millions?)
-
Can I change the mime type of OGG Vorbis and Opus files without re-encoding them?
The magic number for all ogg files is the same (OggS) and files magic file looks like it decides the mime type based on the codecs used in the file. However, it looks like application/ogg is used only if the file contains Kate (Karaoke and Text) content.
