While the effort is laudable, the fact that these are built from source is not enabling me to verify them. Rust, LLVM, gcc, tinycc, all the way back to that 186 seed are prohibitively large to verify.
I'm not even in a position to verify the delta to these projects over a single day. I'm having to trust _someone_, many someones.
