Well that’s not my goal, my goal was to show that the community is a front set up by reddit, which I think it is. The stated purpose of the community is “Presenting information about organized stalking and targeted individuals, to organize, spread awareness, and educate.” so if that’s off topic I’m not sure what on topic means.

Anyway fair enough I will leave them alone.

Yeah. Just to show that they won’t accept proof of the thing they are supposedly there to complain about. I’m quite aware that it’s a shit show, it’s more a protest post

EDIT: Important to note that my vagueness in the post text and lack of link was due to the reddit filters auto-deleting the posts.

Cheers! Thanks for the idea. It’s over there with a few upvotes, and they both have all day to cook

Lol. Literally drop proof in their laps and the mods delete it. That’s what reddit is now. Astronaut meme.

EDIT: The marked it “Off topic” hahahahhaha

Hmmm fair enough I just posted it there. I leave it up to the mods here. I think it deserves some visibility, and the other community is rather small by comparison

Yeah I wouldn’t mind an experienced dev taking over the architecture, but I will proceed myself if that person doesn’t come along. If you were worried about it not being applicable outside the US, stuff like the eligible_1099 field could be converted into a “country_config” object or something like that. I’m already planning on supporting all currencies so it would make sense.

In terms of modularity, I’ll have to think about it some more. I’ll spend some time looking into those projects and consulting about it with the LLM today.

Now about that spreadsheet and reddit post. That’s not just something to consider, that’s a person to contact. I would love to see how their ideas have developed in the past 4 years. I’ll have to grab a burner today. Thank you!

To the office, to fight the corpos!

Why not use existing projects? A combination of my specific design requirements not existing anywhere else and my lack of software architecture experience. My background is in systems and organizational theory, and while I have experience in mathematics related programming, this is my first server architecture. So that being said, I’m certainly open to ideas as long as that doesn’t stop it from working right. I am planning on integrating different tools like messaging, and I’ll certainly use something like Continuwuity for that. It’s just that for the core database design it really needs to have a specific integrated schema, at least that’s my opinion. Like I said I’m open to ideas, my goal is to get the project done.

I’m not familiar with ERPNext but it looks interesting. As you pointed out this is US based, so it looks like I would have to take that into account as well.

In terms of sensitive information, the US does have laws about Personal Identifying Information, so the “Party” table has a corresponding “PartyPii” table with information that isn’t subject to audit and can be deleted. Home address, email, phone, etc. It is also stored encrypted, so while I’m sure I don’t have it all figured out yet, these things are on my radar.

In terms of MVP, I will certainly be testing out front-end funtionality as I build it. Start with a login page that accepts a default user and brings you to a dashboard page. Get the accounting going so you can make Journal Entries, etc. Prettymuch going by the “Core Design” section at the start of the README and testing in chunks. But in terms of actually seeing if it meets it’s intended function, unfortunately that comes down to an actual beta version I think. I will need to host it and invite people to participate with “points” instead of money.

Someone over on beehaw suggested Svelte for front-end mock-up so I’ve been playing around with the tutorial. It’s certainly neat. I should be able to get demo pages going without too much trouble, they just won’t look too special.

And yes, I have begun thinking about the day to day. I think non-management members need to have a pretty significant capability with just a mobile version of the pages, since not everyone has an actual computer. But either way I want the information to flow smoothly through the organization.

Thanks for your input!

Looks extremely useful I’ll play around with it tonight. Thanks

Hmmm, doing some research on containers now, and it does seem like the right way to do this. I’m still learning about server architecture but I didn’t mean to imply it had to be a monolith, the key is it having the capabilities I need.

I’m going to look into Docker and see what I can deploy on it. Seems like a good first step.

Thanks
