Great idea! Let’s huddle with the Coach at the retrospective.

Well, you’re supposed to refer to them as “rituals”. “Meetings” are so waterfall. No wonder it isn’t working.

Agile is LinkedIn religious bollocks. Might as well just pray. Bunch of corporate nonsense.

Should be reciting the creed in Latin, presumably.

I think the ‘1973’ is supposed to be ‘1937’, even though that is the title at this web page: https://www.max-ernst.com/the-triumph-of-surrealism.jsp - the text describes it as 1937 - and this style was a response to rising fascism, which presumably seemed disorienting and surreal - just as it does today.

Hardly ever use Windows myself, but I’m pretty sure you can just download it from Microsoft and refuse all the nags to register it when you are installing it.

Linux, dovecot, postfix and a large quantity of pain medication.

wasn’t it originally idiotically named “SQL/Server”?

The valuable commodity is data. Think of it like eggs. The users are the chickens. Google runs the poultry farm.

thanks for posting the supplement, which goes into considerable detail. There is also this diagram which shows how it works:

Neither would I - you can browse Lemmy (and mastodon I think) pretty extensively without logging in. I also think we are at the start of a long term transition towards decentralization of media generally.

In terms of content I like Lemmy. I do see how concentrated the user base is - but I don’t see it getting smaller - if anything I see it growing slowly but surely. In addition to organic growth, there will probably be events that drive massive migration to the fediverse - like reddit’s nonsense but from different or more diverse sources - some media attention or a major celebrity plug and things could get crazy pretty fast. The platform will probably need a lot of extra TLC to scale rapidly if that happens.

When you see the major media companies start to stand up Mastodon instances - which I also think is going to happen eventually - expansion of the fediverse seems all but inevitable. I would be interested to see what that chart looks like in 5, 10 years. There are plenty of ways for the fediverse to grow apart from more lemmy users signing up.
