  HN is hostile to long videos that reiterate common knowledge in our field ;-) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiation_hardening https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiation_hardening

    It is pretty well known among anyone with an interest in computers. I first heard about cosmic radiation flipping bits in memory from high school.

    20 upvotes isn't hostile, but your gray comment history indicates that HN is hostile to you. You might want to stop and think about what about your personality might cause that.

      Hm, that's strange, your comment is the s/gray/grey one ;-)

        Very strange. One person down-voted it. Who could have done that?
        • goldenkey 5y ago
          So strange. No idea ;-)
