Damn, thank you for this response, I really appreciate it. This does make sense, and I do not understand a lot of the technical details, or how this problem would be solved. I just wish it was haha
The circles project, at least claims, to be built on top of Matrix, where everyone who you accept to follow you essentially joins a seperate matrix room with your content in it, and the "timeline" compilation is done via UI.
Can't say I understand what happens technically when someone is kicked from a matrix room, so what what happen with the encryption keys I dunno.
Appreciate you taking the time to reply, but this isn't what I'm looking for
At least I couldn't find any mention of end-to-end encryption outside messaging.
And it doesn't appear to be timeline (i.e. you post and anyone who you've connected with can see it), it's fully public blogs, private (but no mention of e2ee) chatrooms, and videoconferencing.
My problem with decentralised social Media currently is that it's entirely unencrypted and publically viewable.
I don't mind so much on services like Lemmy where it's a bit of fun to make comments and post random things without it being directly linked to your identity (though I am aware the content is still likely being scraped by someone somewhere).
I'd really love a Facebook/Instagram replacement, but end-to-end encrypted where only the people you've given permission to can view your content.
No idea how this would be achieved, but PixelFed is pretty useless unless you're posting publically.
This song is near and dear to my heart after having only heard it a handful of times before
Though, the problems described are not from the project managers, it's the higher ups and owners squeezing every last cent, with disregard for the people who will be killed.
So, so many unnecessary deaths because someone wanted to save money and cut corners in my industry.
This is why people who advocate for small government and lax regulations, are idiots
I don't work in software, I'm a chemical (aka process) engineer.
Some project managers are superfluous if they don't have a background being an engineer of some discipline themselves, but the vast majority I've worked with are excellent because they have a working knowledge of everything required to progress each stage of the project, and deal with most of the client interactions.
Being able to say: "we've done x, but we still need y, z and aa to progress" and then the project manager organising this getting done together with the other discipline leads is a godsend, letting you focus on doing the actual calculations/design/nitty-gritty details. And the fact they manage the annoying role of dealing with clients and the disagreements around that is also great.
This is working as a consultant, but I imagine if you replace clients with higher ups, I'd imagine the same still applies.
Perhaps things are very different in software, but I do think there is some use for them.
But I've never had one check up every 15 mins, more like once a day, and only if something is very time sensitive. Otherwise it's once a week, or by email as required.
How is this a good argument? The law from the post being stupid notwithstanding, by this logic, why bother making any regulations or laws at all if someone, somewhere is gonna break it.
Are you aware of how much of society is held together with the duct tape of social obligation and the honestly system? Yes we have audits, and enforcement, but honestly in a health society, the vast majority is self-imposed.
This is a really poor argument against government regulation, is all I'm saying.
It boggles the mind how many times a higher up comes up with some idea (in any context, not just politicians), and never stops to answer the question: "how is this going to work?".
A way to share things online, end-to-end encrypted to a wide-audience that knows you but doesn't necessarily know each other.
This is why messaging apps don't fulfil this requirement, and chat rooms (like Matrix) also don't fit.
