A few years ago I designed a way to detect bit-flips in Firefox crash reports and last year we deployed an actual memory tester that runs on user machines after the browser crashes. Today I was looking at the data that comes out of these tests and now I'm 100% positive that the heuristic is sound and a lot of the crashes we see are from users with bad memory or similarly flaky hardware. Here's a few numbers to give you an idea of how large the problem is. 🧵 1/5

그리고 웃픈점은 이메일 찾아보니까 한국도 연관이 있는것 같은데 조사 하나도 안함 ㅋ 공개된 문서에는 신세계쪽 사람들과 뭔가 해보려고 했던것 같은데 그뒤로는 글이 없더군요 ㅎㅎ... 즉 여기 나온 사람들 대다수는 아직도 조사나 처벌이 전혀 안되고 있는데 이런거보면 대다수 사회 윗선들이 다들 많이 썩긴했구나 싶더라고요 현실이 이렇심다...
