”Simply been tasked with X”

We’re on a community that discusses, amongst other things, the running of firms and startups.

Just because someone is simply tasked with X, doesn’t mean we all agree to ignore the big picture. The big picture of

1) Complex projects

2) Security

3) High functioning teams

4) Ethics

This is fundamentally unethical, and irresponsible. I 100% think you agree with me on the irresponsible part.

You may sincerely stand on the reduction of waste, which frankly no one is going to argue. But a team this small, for a project this vital? This fast?

What was that saying? Good, Fast, Cheap? Pick 2? Why the flippty flip, is anyone here OK with fast and cheap?

Hell, What precisely are these people doing? What are the project milestones? Where can we see what’s going on?

And if the transparency of their actions is a cybersecurity risk - then which independent body is checking them?

Edit: Forget their elected, unelected status. Why should we turn around and trust them? What are they planning to do. I don’t want more outrage - you could find the whole thing was running on alien souls. What is the replacement method, and what is the gain we can expect from the changes?

If they’ve taken charge - then they should do the work, and do it well. And if it’s tech related or s/w related stuff, then talk about it, and explain.
