Debian manages to do this, and I'm guessing they get paid nothing (although, yeah, Amazon and The Goog really ought to chip in a few bucks, considering their respective empires). Unfortunately, it means you can't just YOLO your code into other people's programs anymore. | | |

| ▲ | venturecruelty 25 minutes ago | parent [-] | | Oh, agreed 100%. I find it endlessly frustrating that these same conversations happen every single time there's a supply chain attack like this, because nobody wants an _actual_ solution, they want an _easy_ solution that doesn't involve changing anything about how they work. So we just get 500 comments asking if we can solve the Halting Problem, and then everyone forgets until the next breach. It was ever thus. |
