Holy shit, they fixed it.

Voyager 1 had a failed chip, and the engineering team patched around it.

Put THAT on your resumé. FUCKING BADASS.

I see you have a lot of embedded systems experience but it doesn’t look like any recent experience with React or LLMs, is that right?

@wenge I’ve never heard of this “Voyager 1” product. Is it some kind of CRM?

I can't even imagine how hard it was doing that on a 50-year-old system. Go, little Vogayer!

@drahardja What was that now-no-longer-unused-memory doing there? Redundancy just in case they had to do something like this? Or did they just kill some functionality no longer needed? (Like it probably won’t be firing whatever thrusters again.)

@integerpoet I’m sure there is a combination of reserved, unused space, and old stuff that they no longer need.

@drahardja Sure. What I mean is: I want the details. Also I want the simulator they use. And I want it to run on iPhone. And I want a pony.
