But why would the same people that poorly designed the monolith be able to design the intrinsically more complex microservice architecture better?

Yes absolutely. If things have to move fast, people/institutions have to refer to heuristics. But in my understanding this also is pretty much what the article described.

I know two presidents off the top of my head who were touting hydroxychloroquine as a vaccine substitute, without any evidence.

Yes absolutely, and you have the same in the US (e.g. libertarianism vs. evangelicalism). But those can mostly be explained within each moral framework (e.g. social conservatism is keeping the us vs. them mentality: "no social benefits

Indeed (and quite similar in Germany). They are the moral basis from which this very fact gets criticized, though.

Are you aware that vaccines came out way over 200 years ago in Europe? And the technique was known for quite a bit longer in Asia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inoculation#Origins

To add to that, what Tesla apparently calls structural battery means integrating the battery enclosure into the chassis, whereas this research means integrating the battery chemistry itself .

This is a qualitative, not quantitative study. The goal of qualitative research (in cases like this) is, essentially, finding categories, not the relative distribution of the population in those categories. I've seen well-executed qu

ABIs are only needed because some manufacturers insist on closed source blobs. Why should Linux, a project whose entire raison d'etre is to provide an open source kernel, make life easier for companies unwilling to accept that?

I find that hard to believe - the opposite, resistance against the employee surveillance Office 365 enables, is a hot topic in most German unions right now.

The electrive article even cites a very optimistic study that assumes a high share of renewables to fill the Tesla. Other studies see quite more modest gains of EVs, e.g. https://www.iea.org/data-and-statistics/charts&#

That only makes other consumers consume the fossil-based energy instead, overall CO2 production would remain constant. This is zero sum unless renewable plants were explicitly installed for mining bitcoin.

The ML field alone is full of unreproducable papers. Example: "“Probably 50%-75% of all papers are unreproducible. It’s sad, but it’s true,” another user wrote. “Think about it, most papers are ‘optimized’ to get into a conference. M

CO2 wise the shift to EVs alone will change almost nothing, you just centralize emissions at power plants. It does enable a potential shift to renewable energy sources, though. Source: https://www.iea.org/data-and-statisti

Indeed. The switch to reusable options comes with its own challenges, though (says my social circle, I don't menstruate). So if the goal is to change things in one's own life for the sake of sustainability, there are lower hanging
