Eli Lilly stock isn't just tanking because of a satirical Tweet on Musk's hellscape, it's tanking because millions of people are asking why we have to pay for insulin, when it was made to be free.

My @igalia colleague Danylo has written a super-interesting blog post about debugging unrecoverable GPU hangs using breadcrumbs, with an example applied to Turnip, the @VulkanAPI #Mesa3D driver for Adreno GPUs. Check it out! blogs.igalia.com/dpiliaiev/d…
