Re:Ask HN: Photos corrupted on Google Pixel phones over time?

The same thing has happened to me on a Pixel 7a (maybe also on a 4a). I did not look into it and thought it might be photos that I deleted but the metadata lived on. Very concerning to see it comes from actual data corruption.
My strategy is to backup often, now even more so, thanks!

- Which differences between the C abstract machine and actual modern CPUs/hardware have proven most difficult to deal with in the language?
- Are you planning any addition regarding modeling of how modern CPUs work (e.g. pipelines, branches, speculative execution, cache lines, etc)?
PS: Thank you for doing this!

I wonder how this would look like taking into account language-specific user forums. I do not know about other languages but the Rust users forum is very active. The popularity on StackOverflow is probably dragged down by this, although I do not know to which degree.
