In the great lakes you have low-head dams keeping lampreys at bay:

But oxygenation not really an advantage of low-head dams, when the dam is often contributing to the oxygen depletion in the first place. Free-flowing streams are typically adequately oxygenated.

Small dams raise the temp of the water and decrease the dissolved oxygen, so removing the dams can improve ecological resilience in a warming climate.

I like this analogy. Another one I have used is double-entry bookkeeping.

When learning kayaking you have to practice a water escape, I wish there was something similar for driver's ed in the Netherlands. Thinking about it is terrifying.

Most likely the latter. Thousands of bikes, a hundred people, and more than thirty cars fall in to Amsterdam canals each year. "What to do if your car falls in the water" is part of driver's ed.

(I opened this discussion 2.5 years ago and get an email from github every once in a while ever since. I had given up hope TBH)

I hate to admit it, but flaky tests almost always highlight weaknesses in my software architecture.

And fixing a flaky test usually involves making the actual code more robust.

> Who tests the tests?

To me it's a bit like double entry bookkeeping. Two layers is valuable, but there's rapidly diminishing returns beyond two.
