We have a problem with testing.

“Management” identifies problem “testing” adds word “lead”.

Issues job advert, recruits, problem solved?

. . . third “testing lead” in 2 years . . . “it’s so hard to recruit”

Those 2 Israelis were probably supporting hamas and spreading hamas propaganda and eating jewish babies. why else would they be in gaza? Real journalists can get all the evidence they need sitting in Tel Aviv to do honest unbiased journalism. They shoudl be working on articles about all the nice upcoming new beachfront luxury properly development opportunity in south-west israel.
It’s anti-semetic to fall for these journalist costumes being worn by all these hamas agents - the world should be grateful it is now safe from their lies and suicide bombs.

It’s a donation so you’re never going to have perfect pricing everything down to the nearest penny or remunerating each person-hour worked. I think It’s about something rough and ready that is better than nothing. And it’s all goverened by morality anyway . . .
so doomed to failure on that side.

Buy hypothetically a simple principle with reasonable administration cost, like each 3 months, each node shoud add up all donations, slice off 25-50% , split it equally among their top 5 or 10 most important dependencies - just guess, and maybe swap from quarter to quarter if if there’s doubt. There’s some wiggle room there for small projects to do less and large over funded projects to do more.

Each node in the network could follow a simple rule like that, making a limited number of transactions each time period ,and you’d probably end up with quite a complex outcome after a few iterations (years).

The real trick would be having enough nodes in the network that actually enact such a simple rule. (Apart from having enough donations flow in to the consumer level projects of course).
But enough nodes and enough inflow and the fractal would work for you - roughly.

THe speed is an issue, the more often you settle up then quicker people see money, but the more the admin cost.
But even doing it quaterly is not slower than doing nothing.

Such a model is not something anyone will be securing bank loans off though, so if that’s the point then you probably need a paid licensing / service model of some sourt maybe Canonical and redhat.

Someone tried “April & Bob” once, but MS excel converted it to date.

When I buy a turnip from the grocery store I don’t have to pay the farmer directly.

If I donate to debian, that I depend on , then debian (morally) should disburse some of that donation to the linux kernel that debian depends on.

stackoverflow vs posting a meme.

Which one gets the best help?

I can see the appeal of the meme option.

i’d do some intellectual property reform.
some banking reform - more local / peer group/long term lending requirements, less fickle international finance. (and less fucking mortgage bubbles!)
some small business support / starter initiatives - link that in with how banks work.

i’d consider lobbying for some government sposored work to generate open source plans and enable production processes for useful tools - Okay that isn’t going to happen , , ,

but it’s not all or nothing, but you can do things to help some more workers control and access more of their tooling even if its not outright ownership of the end to end production process.

(By the way i’m basically arguing for a more “free” market in the ecnomic sense (easy access for a large number of small scale producers). . . which is exactly not what large-scale capitalists want.
They want a market “free” from any thing that might regulate their attempts to secure economic power and their abiity to use it to generate supernormal prices/profits.)

Progress doesnt happen in 4-5 year political cycles thats a hard one to improve without an electorate capable (any maybe secure enough) to thing about the longer term. Odd that it was extreme econmic and political uncertainty that brought out the likes of FDR and other post-war that people were most willing to think long term when it came to their governemnts - I guess it brought out all sorts of “crazies”.

The big one in terms of bloodshed is land reform - and it has been done in a few places - sort of post-colonial type situations - but granted it does ususally have blooodshed. It’s a personal judgment what degree is “excessive bloodshed”.

This dude must be trolling.

or maybe doesn’t have a very broad experience of assets, ownership or work.

I’d guess they’d need to figure out whatever apple did with it’s arm chips.
efficient use of many-cores and probably some fancy caching arrangement.

It’ll may also be a matter of financing to be able to afford (compete with intel, apple, amd, nvidia) to book the most advanced manufacturing for decent sized batches of more complex chips.

Once they have proven reliable core/chip designs , supporting more products and a growing market share, I imagine more financing doors will open.

I’d guess risc-v is mostly financed by industry consortia maybe involving some governments so it might not be about investor finance, but these funders will want to see progress towards their goals. If most of them want replacements for embedded low power arm chips, that’s what they’re going to prioritise over consumer / powerful standalone workstations.

I think that’s the whole point of all risc - it saves power over cisc but may take longer to compute some tasks.

That’d be why things like phones with limited batteries often prefer risc.

all it needs is a mystery turd in the bed , and a radiator to finish off a grilled charlie.

i remember making a deal to sell vine-street to complete someone else’s orange set, but only if they paid me 10% on income from the street - i think i thought i was being funny.

anyway, after a few turns i fucked off to the pub for three or four hours . . .
came back later . . . Oligopoly had become entrenched.

it’s like monopoly but worse, it never ends.

only h lawyers and accountants figuring out who owed what to whom each turn had any idea what was going on and if anyone was winning.

That’s not right.

there’s a frood so hoopy he would be able to avoid giving treefiddy to the ravenous bugblatter beat of traal

I think they’re meming that 4 that was their total yield from all the plants they were able over the 2 months.

if you were to grow your own you’d probably be limited by something - space , light, and soil quality, and weather (maybe)

that’s probably why you say “if”

I keep all my friends named alphabetically:
Alan, Brian, Catherine, Dinesh . . .
It just makes it so much neater when i need to use simultaneous equations to figure out one of their unknown attributes.
