2つの家庭が結果を比較できるように、家庭での種子発芽比較はどう設計すべきか
未解決の問い: 検査機関はISTAのInternational Rules for Seed Testingに基づいて種子を検査するが、2つの種子ロットや2つの窓辺を比較する家庭には共通のプロトコルがない。どのようなサンプルサイズ、カウントルール、期間、条件の記録があれば、こうした家庭での比較は有益になり、家庭間でも比較可能になるのか。

低トラフィックのサービスで、まれな失敗を見えるままにしておけるトレースサンプリング戦略はどれか
未解決の問い: サンプリングに関する指針は、1秒間に数千件のトレースがあり1%でも代表的なサンプルになるようなサービスを前提に書かれている。1秒間に数件のリクエストしかないサービスでは、ヘッドサンプリング、テイルサンプリング、ルートごとのレート、保持期間のどの組み合わせが、週に1件だけ発生する失敗トレースをチームの受け入れられるコストで確保し続けてきたのか。

デプロイ済みのイメージを削除することなくコンテナレジストリを小さく保つには、どのイメージ保持ルールがよいか
未解決の問い: レジストリは、どのマニフェストからも参照されなくなったblobだけをガベージコレクションし、ライフサイクルポリシーは経過時間・件数・タグパターンによってイメージを期限切れにする。無制限な増大も、イメージが消えていたことによるロールバックの失敗も起こさずに、チームが何年も運用してきたルールの組み合わせはどのようなものか。

Which code-review metrics predict escaped defects without being gamed?
Open question: review turnaround, comment density and change size are easy to measure, but which of them actually predict defects found after merge, and which stop working once teams optimise for them?
-
Welche Rollout-Strategie funktioniert auf einem einzelnen Host mit Docker Compose und Reverse Proxy?
Offene Frage: Rollierend, Blue-Green und Canary sind für Orchestratoren beschrieben; viele kleine Dienste laufen aber auf einem Host mit Docker Compose hinter Traefik, nginx oder Caddy. Welche Nachbildung – zweiter Container mit umgeschalteter Proxy-Regel, gewichtete Verteilung, start-first – haben Teams über Monate betrieben, was hat sie gebrochen, und ab welcher Grösse lohnt sich der Orchestrator?
-
Which household records fix the start and end of a power outage after the fact, and how far have they disagreed?
Open question: after a power cut a household has several clocks of the event, such as the utility's notice, a UPS log, a router's uptime, a home server's reboot records (the last(1) manual page states that last reboot produces a record of reboot times, and journalctl can list boots with the timestamps of each boot's first and last message), a battery clock that kept time and a mains clock that flashes; which of these have households actually used, how far did they disagree, and which gave the earliest and latest bounds?
-
How much of an agent's context is tool output in real runs, and does trimming it change task success?
Open question: the MCP specification says clients should validate tool results before passing them to the model but leaves the amount to the client; in recorded agent runs, what share of tokens is tool output rather than instructions or reasoning, and does truncating, summarising or filtering tool output change task success, cost and latency?
-
Which observability signals should a JVM or .NET service emit by default, and at what overhead?
Open question: both runtimes ship built-in telemetry (Flight Recorder and GC logging on the JVM; EventPipe counters and dotnet-trace on .NET) and both have OpenTelemetry auto-instrumentation, but there is little shared evidence on which of these should be always-on in production, what they cost, and which ones actually shortened incidents.
-
How can a household water-use observation be reproduced?
Open request for a bounded observation protocol, without claims about water savings.
-
After how many soft bounces, over what period, should a sender stop mailing an address?
Open question: enhanced status codes separate permanent failures (5.X.X) from persistent transient ones (4.X.X), but the standard leaves the transient case to sender policy; which thresholds have senders used, and what happened to recovery rates and reputation?
-
Which evidence hierarchy fits claims about software-engineering practices?
Open question: medicine grades evidence with explicit hierarchies and downgrade factors; claims about engineering practices rest mostly on case studies, surveys and vendor reports. Has a grading scheme for such claims been proposed and actually applied, and how does it handle context-dependent effects?
-
When does client-side routing still pay off now that browsers offer bfcache, prerendering and cross-document view transitions?
Open question: in-page routers were adopted to avoid full page loads, at the cost of shell serving, 404 handling, scroll and focus restoration and a bundle that must arrive first; the back/forward cache, the Speculation Rules API and cross-document view transitions now address the original motivations in multi-page sites. For which sites and interaction patterns does an in-page router still measurably win?
-
At what repository size do teams need monorepo build tooling beyond plain Git?
Open question: sparse checkout, partial clone and per-directory CI filters cover the first stage of a growing single repository; at which size, team count or build time have teams found that a build graph tool with remote caching became necessary, and what did the transition cost?
-
How much test coverage is enough for a small service?
Open question: for a service of a few thousand lines with a database and an HTTP API, what coverage level and test mix has been observed to keep defect rates acceptable without slowing change?
-
Which User-Agent conventions do site operators use to classify AI agents, and how often are honestly identified agents blocked anyway?
RFC 9309 tells crawlers to carry a product token and a description URL in their User-Agent, and operators increasingly sort traffic into browsers, crawlers and agents by such strings; this question asks which conventions operators actually key on, whether honest identification raises or lowers the chance of being blocked or rate-limited, and what the measured share of misclassified traffic is.
-
How far back should a scheduled pipeline reprocess for late-arriving events, and how have teams chosen the window?
Open question: stream engines admit that some events can be arbitrarily delayed, and batch schedulers run each interval once after it closes; a common compromise re-runs the last N intervals on every run, but N is usually a guess. What evidence has been used to size N, and what happened to the events that arrived later still?
-
When should a service with users in every time zone schedule its maintenance window?
Open question: a maintenance window at 3 a.m. locally is midday for someone; how have small teams serving global users chosen their windows, and did traffic-minimum, staff-availability or rotating-region windows lead to fewer complaints and safer changes?
-
How do teams run several coding agents in parallel git worktrees without their caches, hooks and ports colliding?
Open question: worktrees give each agent its own branch and files, and the git-worktree documentation says a linked worktree shares everything except per-worktree files such as HEAD and the index, so hooks and configuration are shared while build caches, dependency directories and local ports are often hard-coded; which conventions have kept parallel agent runs isolated, and what broke first?
-
Do FAQ pages earn their place, and what keeps them from rotting?
Open question: GOV.UK's style guide forbids FAQs on GOV.UK on the grounds that content written from user needs does not need them, while Nielsen Norman Group argues FAQs deliver value and that search alone is rarely enough; which measurable outcomes, ownership rules and staleness checks have teams recorded for FAQ pages in technical documentation?
-
How should the reliability of an acting agent be measured when a run can succeed at its task and still cause an unwanted side effect?
Open question: benchmarks score whether the goal state was reached, and pass^k adds consistency over trials, but neither counts a run that reached the goal and also deleted a file, sent a message or spent a budget it should not have; which measures teams use for that, how they collect them, and whether they move with prompt and model changes is undocumented.
