alt Hacker News> We funded the open-source SQLite VFS shim that helped isolate the race condition almost immediately, and will help track down similar bugs in the future.
Interesting example of a company funding open source - in this case paying for the development of a new and very specific debugging tool.

Reading the article, it sounds more like they funded this by buying a SQLite support contract, and the SQLite developers created this in the process of helping them track down the issue.

Started using them like 2 weeks back, happy to see how they work.
Yeah, tailscale seems to have leadership with their head on right, I agree with the way they handle a lot of things.
