 raitobezarius | It has been like this for years | 14:05:39 |
| raitobezarius | When Theo goes on holidays | 14:05:47 |
| raitobezarius | His family and friends have the keys to swap the disk in town | 14:05:56 |
| raitobezarius | If any such need occur | 14:06:02 |
| raitobezarius | I can imagine many failure scenarios | 14:06:10 |
 Domen Kožar | raitobezarius: the foundation can't afford to say when 1000 of businesses rely on cache, that Theo went on vacation can family had an emergency | 14:06:23 |
| Domen Kožar | not when there were other options | 14:06:29 |
| raitobezarius | I don't see thousands of businesses giving money for the cache | 14:06:50 |
| raitobezarius | So I am not even sure this is a problem at this point | 14:06:59 |
| Domen Kožar | wait, we're mixing things up now | 14:07:13 |
| Domen Kožar | if they use it, it doesn't mean they donate | 14:07:24 |
| raitobezarius | I think you have an implicit assumption that the community must ensure professionalism to companies | 14:07:39 |
| raitobezarius | Or am I reading this wrong? | 14:07:44 |
| Domen Kožar | companies rely on this infrastructure | 14:08:00 |
| Domen Kožar | if we can't guarantee that, everyone will move to what someone will build and provide business guarantees | 14:08:28 |
 adamcstephens 🐝 | do these companies contribute financially to ensure the infra is maintained? | 14:08:30 |
| Domen Kožar | they will and that's what I'm trying to say! | 14:08:38 |
| raitobezarius | That makes sense to me, Domen | 14:08:42 |
| Domen Kožar | ok, but if we can get those 10k/mo from companies, why wouldn't we continue to ensure it's professional? | 14:09:13 |
| Domen Kožar | that's what I'm saying, there are so many pet projects to pick on, why do this with the cache I don't get it | 14:09:32 |
| raitobezarius | What I see though is that no company except Mercury and few one off contributed to the cache working group on dedupe | 14:09:33 |
| Domen Kožar | because you need to talk to those companies | 14:09:51 |
| Domen Kožar | I'm willing to do that | 14:09:55 |
| raitobezarius | So I am cautious and I don't know if those 10k/mo will materialize or not | 14:10:00 |
| raitobezarius | In reply to @domenkozar:matrix.org
I'm willing to do that OK but that means you still don't know right? | 14:10:18 |
| Domen Kožar | I'm absolutely sure it can be done | 14:10:29 |
| raitobezarius | But assume you get 10k/mo from those companies | 14:10:35 |
| raitobezarius | Why not let the infra team cook? | 14:10:45 |
| raitobezarius | They know the best, no? | 14:10:52 |
| raitobezarius | Of course, this does not preclude a form of long term check up on the health of the things :) | 14:11:24 |
