In cellular automata, simple rules create elaborate structures. Now researchers are working backward — starting with the result to learn the rules behind it. @georgemusser.com, SFI’s 2025 Journalism Fellow, explores how this could reshape computation and self-organization in Quanta:

From an engineering perspective, software wants to be decoupled. From a business value perspective, software wants to be deeply interconnected. That's the fundamental friction that software design, and Domain-Driven Design specifically, attempts to address.

The article has connected some dots in my notes. Therefore, a thread🧵: filling the gap between “gravity” and “feature lift,” and how to empower product teams to make better decisions. Where domain eng. brings advantages, and how platform eng. could fit in. A story thro a data-flow perspective.

Excellent article on positioning domain engineering between product engineering and infrastructure engineering. I fully agree with the financial model section. However, I prefer to call it ‘platform engineering: the hard parts,’ simply because in the middle, we face more volatile semantics.

8/9: Consideration of all three problem spaces gives us the ability to anticipate future states and evolve toward that target. It helps grasp boundaries and trace trajectories for better relevance. Design for Tension empowers product teams to make the best possible decisions in the midst of change.

9/9:Platform eng. can scaffold a reliability mindset for product engineers by providing a causal understanding of systems _below the line_ and by helping connect the dots with systems _above the line_. A balanced and coherent view of boundaries gives confidence to evolve them in the right direction.

6/9: Business or domain concern gives us a sense of data — causal relations and transactional boundaries. That knowledge can be used to relax our consistency model and enhance availability (through clear isolation), which is good for event-driven, cloud-native applications.

7/9: Domain modeling unfold data semantics and enables more reliable systems with greater affordances – more user actions in context. Product relevance guides us to explore and verify models against the evolving landscape, mostly found in the interconnections of data-flow.

4/9: Platform eng. could help product t. design and build for Tension: - observability 2.0 (wide: cloud, domain, product) - components (event-driven foundation, reliability) - causal understanding (atl toolchain for grasp semantics) Design for Tension is a team sport. Activates platform eng. invest.

2/9: Infrastructure Gravity leads us to pay attention to cloud concerns: how data is stored, processed, and transferred between components. Feature Lift is about product concerns — a field of relevance: how many opportunities for meaningful interaction the data allows us to realize.

3/9: Tension arises when we try to model volatile semantics into strict syntax. Tension here implies coherence: a proper domain data model reduces cloud concerns and amplifies product velocity. A sweet spot for DORA uplift.

I like these visuals. Linked lists and B-trees are exactly how I represent remodeling in my mind. When you’ve worked with a domain for a long time, you start remodelling it to better fit concurrent product streams and to ‘activate’ their velocity.

Organisations that take advantage of this fear to squeeze more out of their people might see short-term gains but will ultimately be left behind. Now is the time to double-down and invest in fostering trust, encouraging challenge, and creating a culture of safety.
