Bitcoin Core: Bitcoin Core 0.21.1 Released with Taproot Activation Code
The CA improperly revoked the certificate in response to a renewal request and back dated the revocation and are refusing to issue a new certificate (my understanding and that the CA now believes open source collaborations aren't eligible for code signing certs...)
The releases are still PGP signed by an official project key which has been in use for many years and is cross signed by many parties, as well as by another 16 parties that independent reproduced the binaries through the deterministic build process: https://github.com/bitcoin-core/gitian.sigs/tree/master/0.21...
By comparison, the windows code signing provides relatively little security assurance. Not too dissimilar from the HTTPS used on the download site. It, like the https, does have the advantage that it is widely checked while many users don't bother checking the actual release signatures.

Nix is a better Docker image builder than Docker's image builder
Yes, fantastic work. Downside is that snapshot.debian.org is extremely slow, times out / errors out regularly - very annoying. See also e.g. https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/issues/8496 for complaints (but it's pretty apparent once you integrate this in your builds).

Are the following three assumptions correct about security?
Take electrum for example. We have 329 contributors. https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum Now, you can either trust that 329 people are not in on a ploy to steal your money together, or you can be the 330th contributor and verify the software yourself.

Does Trezor support psbt?
You are asking about whether Trezor Suite supports PSBT format, and the answer is no. There's however several options that do support PSBT and work with Trezor, such as HWI, Electrum, and presumably also Sparrow Wallet itself.
