I like the format but these seem grammatically incorrect written down in arabic, e.g. missing articles etc, I guess you're going for street Arabic but you should have it in fusha, it's easier to go other way around

I say this as a personal rust fan, but practically if a language like a combination of Kotlin+Go existed, that'd be like an awesome standard business language. Kotlin is good but just very tied to the JVM, Go has a hostile syntax/developer experience. Another way to frame it is like Rust with a garbage collector. Most biz APIs don't really need zero cost abstractions of Rust.

you know there's this great abstraction over files we came up with in the data world called 'tables'..

Apache Iceberg is kind of this, but more oriented around large data lake datasets.

Perhaps this is true for business data (though I'm skeptical of the claims), but, for example, for security data, this isn't true at all. Collecting cloud, identity, SaaS, and network logs/data can easily exceed hundreds of terabytes. A big reason why we're building Matano as a data lake for security.

It seems an odd pitch in general to say, hey my product specifically performs poorly on large datasets.

I wonder, why doesnt Nike just add ID verification, is the friction too much?

I mean these people queue in lines so I would think not, and the new ID verification apps are pretty seamless (upload a pic of self and ID).
