 emily | can you give a rough estimate of how many countries' national security depend on the integrity of your laptop? or maybe planes' ability to remain aloft or medical devices' proper functioning? :D | 15:55:06 |
| emily | but yeah, big builds on GHA is a pain | 15:55:14 |
| emily | and I assume your company isn't up for paying for the beefier or third-party runners | 15:55:32 |
 @rosssmyth:matrix.org | I know we interact with the US military but I'm unsure what we do with them.
We have major contracts with the single company that does almost all testing of silicon wafers for all foundries
We have many contracts with various medical device manufactuers
No aerospace contracts (yet!)
And yeah, we just have the cheapest github plan at like $50/year | 15:56:53 |
| @rosssmyth:matrix.org | Also if you drive a Tesla Model X, we have hardware in the rear power seats | 15:57:09 |
| @rosssmyth:matrix.org | Though starting next year we will not as they are moving that stuff in-house iirc | 15:57:34 |
| @rosssmyth:matrix.org | We also supply motors for the McDonald's Ice Cream machine. | 15:57:51 |

| emily | thankfully there are other components of the Tesla supply chain I am more concerned about, such as Tesla | 15:58:29 |
| @rosssmyth:matrix.org | true... | 15:58:36 |
| @rosssmyth:matrix.org | They suck to work with! | 15:58:44 |
| emily | haha, don't get fired for complaining about your clients on NixOS Matrix :) | 15:59:12 |
| emily | (aren't those the ones famous for always being broken, though?) | 15:59:28 |
| @rosssmyth:matrix.org | they are not our client anymore, the contract expired anyways | 15:59:35 |
