   Until now I believed him when he told me he was a strong engineer working at Google, and eats at the Google cafeteria ... He's just too proud. I will make sure to leave some milk out every night from now on.

   Just getting around to looking at this. There is a certificate in sigstore for the 8.3.41 that claims the package is a build of cb260c243ffa3e0cc84820095cd88be2f5db86ca -- https://search.sigstore.dev/?logIndex=153415340 . Bu

    So true. In addition, if every kid suddenly became a vampire, we would not just expect, but demand the government step in.

    I'm way more worried about how a compromised xz-utils made it past the package maintainer and into the Debian repos. Mitigating supply chain attack vectors like this seem like the bigger priority by far and low hanging fruit. I don&#x2

    2 nose dives in 6 months apart within 2 years of first operational flights. This is not safe. This was anything but a testament to the aviation regulatory regime at the time. There was glaringly obvious engineering and procedural issues the

    x2 737 Max nose dive crashes killing all onboard within 6 months of each other is not "surprisingly safe". It's surprisingly unsafe!

    Does "distributed" mean sharded or just replicated? In either case it's a bit quirky but easy enough. > Scylla, Yuga, Cockroach, TiDB etc. You have experience "distributing" all these DBs? That's impressive.
