software engineers will notice half a second of latency in something that should be ~instant and will move heaven and earth to fix it, or at least to understand why; and this seems to have blown an operation that had started to install a backdoor on every Debian/Ubuntu SSH server

I feel like this is unprecedented: I've never seen an aircraft likely involved carry out a sortie. Publicly.
i didnt know there was a nuclear weapons fandom who are trying their damndest to reverse-engineer modern nuclear weapon designs based off unclassified / public-domain info
