There's an excellent Radiolab podcast episode about how often cosmic rays cause computer errors in practice. It's engaging and educational: https://radiolab.org/podcast/bit-flip

I always knew about the theoretical cosmic ray bit flips. Before listening to this episode, I did not stop to think how often they actually cause problems.
