Nasa are currently working to fix a computer error aboard Voyager 1. The probe's computer system runs at around 8000 instructions per second and has about 68kB of memory. Due to the interplanetary distances involved, even at light speed it takes 45 hours to send a signal and get a response. When asked about the unique challenges this poses, an engineer said "that's actually about average for a modern CI system".

@nilaypatel -- editor-in-chief of @theverge -- thinks there aren't girls on the fediverse 😂

boost this if you're a girl on the fediverse to scare him lmao

I think at a baseline, we shouldn't be building critical official packages for distribution from release tarballs. A huge part of this was the tarball didn't match the repo and since we're talking a compression library, compressed archives shipped for "testing" concealed the payload.

Official builds should pull source and build/test scripts generate testing data in an auditable way rather than just trusting a tarball containing blobs.
