I try to contribute to things getting better, with sourced information, OC and polite rational skepticism.
Disagreeing with a point ≠ supporting the opposite side, I support rationality.
Let’s discuss to make things better sustainably.
Always happy to question our beliefs.

  • For reference, Palantir are not the only ones to provide supposedly fancy UIs on top of data messes, there are many others like Talend, Datahaiku, Alteryx etc. Those platforms are not magic, they will still need a lot of little hands to wrangle the data mess to get it in a useful state, if there’s ever an actual motivation to do that, and it’s not all pretending to be “data driven”. Usually, the data engineering community hates those graphical tools that are designed to convince executives rather than help engineers because no UI can be as powerful as a code base in this field. Palantir is special in how they managed to convince the executives of the police and administrations.

    This kind of indirect bullying is kind of unavoidable online, because of the lack of direct contact, you don’t empathize much with the other sensitive being. Until we get that perfect education to civility that may happen in 2000 years if we still exist. Maybe one solution is to have strong rules and moderation about personal attacks. But then it’s the moderators that will get bullied for censorship and end up crucified on the power tripping bastard community.
