This seems like a good assessment. Personally I don't plan on avoiding COVID for the next 10 years nor do I even live in a rural area. Hypothetical.
I don't fully agree with the last paragraph. I mean I think if you're charitable you can alter the analogy a little bit to make it fit. I agree that there is no "vaccine" sub-unit, but let's say the equivalent is temporarily changing a data structure that is read by service A, not thinking about service B. Or not fully examining the flow on effects from service A etc.
- icegreentea2 5y agoI don't think we really need to think about "reaching in and changing internals". Vaccines are very literally specific inputs into a reactive distributed system with distributed memory/persistance. We are crafting inputs based on our understanding of system internals and prior system behaviour to similar inputs, but they are very much inputs.
