> where we provide lockfiles that are individually valid

Providing lockfiles is a really interesting idea! That certainly solves the "we need your non-deterministic build tool to reproduce an exact build that we found" problem.

We haven't explored this route yet because a lot of our customers use tools that don't support lockfiles (e.g. Maven - Java in general has a lot of legacy stuff).

If you want to build off of our work, our dependency analysis bit is open source: https://github.com/fossas/fossa-cli

FOSSA | Software Engineers (Mid, Sr., Staff), PMs (Mid, Sr.) | USA, Canada, Remote (able to work ~US time zone hours)| Full-Time

FOSSA builds developer tools to help engineering teams manage their open source. We help enterprise customers discover legal (licensing and copyright) and security (vulnerabilities) risks in their dependencies, provide tooling for them to catch these issues in CI, and automate the tedium around policy enforcement and report generation. As companies adopt more open source, their engineering teams get bogged down by more distractions around compliance and security. We help automate away those distractions.

We build an open-source CLI tool (https://github.com/fossas/fossa-cli) that integrates with compilers and build systems to extract dependency and build information; a backend distributed system for analyzing dependency metadata; and a web application with a policy, reporting, and enforcement engine.

Tech we use includes:

The project I'm trying to build is open source (https://github.com/fossas/fossa-cli). When I got this new system set up, I ran the instructions on our HACKING.md page and immediately tried to build. This failed because I didn't have `llvm` installed, so I `brew install llvm`'d, symlinked into `$PATH`, and tried again. This failed due to: ``` install_name_tool: error: unsupported load command (cmd=0x80000034) `install_name_tool' failed in phase `Install Name Tool'. (Exit code: 1)

- Frontend Engineer (https://imgix.com/careers#frontend-engineer)

There are services like imgix out there which are pretty cost effective and take a lot of the effort out of images. Aside from requesting a specific size and applying transforms in the URL parameters you can also use format=auto which will check the browser's user agent and deliver a compatible, optimized format. Super easy to setup over the top of an existing site too since they have a web folder option which means you can leverage an existing image host. Alternatively you can link it to an S3 bucket.
