You need to implement the synergistic cloud blockchain.

Ah, so we can leverage acceleration towards actionable efficiency.

My boss holds Meeings all the time. Almost every meeting is about her and how great she is. I will now call these meeting “meeings”.
All those Meeings could have been an emai as well
Memail?
I’ve been to some of those. They really suck. Worse than meetings.
I was in a meeting with an external company once that sells NFTs. Yes, it was fun. Yes, the only reason I was there is 'cause I thought I’d be hilarious. Yes, I wrote money laundering into their interactive word cloud, and others wrote similar thoughts. Plz buy this jewelry for $500 so that you can use that virtually in Zoom. Some are convinced that Blockchain is the future. Others not so much.
Oh look ! A programmers meme thread has descended into a technical argument.
What does the title have to do with the post…?
Well, customers will sometimes ask for certain solutions to be used. Solutions for problems they don’t have…
Solutions that make no sense to the problem they think they have.
Customers fall for every hype and want dumb things that don’t make sense to be implemented.
suit customer may be worst customer
Real talk, if this is happening to you often you’ve gotta decline more meetings.
What even is this job? 😂
Agenda?
honestly a distributed ledger makes alot of sense for backups, having a swarm of backup nodes which replicate your backup data… good resiliency and geographic distribution.
What you want in that situation is called a “replicated database”, not a “distributed ledger” and certainly not a “blockchain”.
99.999% of the time what people imagine when they say blockchain is good is effectively just the matrix protocol, which can be summarized as federated eventually consistent databases (and that’s pretty dang neato).
If a single organization owns all the servers, there’s not even in theory a reason to prefer blockchain over a plain replicated database. And in practice anyone who’s pushing blockchain is either an ideologue or a scammer; either way they don’t have the user’s best interests at heart.
that’s my point, most of the time people don’t even know what a blockchain actually is, and the reason they think it’s good is because in their head they imagine something less shit
Could not have said it better myself
It makes no sense at all to distribute the backup generation step, and what do you do with your ledger once the retention period ends?
There may be something you can do with a ledger in the “full - incremental - incremental - incremental …” cycle, but I can’t think of anything that’s actually useful.
Since we are designing the consensus algorithm we could remove data that is expired with some quorum vote, or indication from a key holder.
or you could just not do that, and keep control of your own data. Why the hell would I want you to have a vote on whether I can delete my private data, which for some unfathomable reason, someone decided everyone should have a copy of?
That’s just ceph with extra steps.
