Why do some developers randomize assets names in web pages

When I'm surfing on Internet I do like to have a quick look at the code of at least one page before leaving websites I visit. But there's something I see often and ( that may be for security purpose but I want to be sure) is that the name of assets (js, css, and so on) can contain a randomized part.

This is an example in the source code of a page from GitHub:

<link rel="stylesheet" media="all" href="http://ift.tt/2bg7J7b" crossorigin="anonymous">

Can anyone explain the reason of that practice, please?
