Hot take on formulas
Engineering references that specify formulas with variables with specified units, instead of constants with defined units, are a travesty. I refer to Crane Technical Paper 410 in this instance. Why would I want ΔP = 32000 μ L v/d^2 (for laminar flow) You’d expect this to be a normal formula, which you do your own dimensional analysis, but no. Units are specified. But not even on the same page, no no, on a “nomenclature” page you have to know to look for. ΔP in Pa μ in cP L in m v in m/s d in mm When I could have ΔP=32 μ L v/D² and YOU use whatever units you want. Hell I could even put imperial units in here if I were a masochist. Very upsetting. Engineering textbooks/technical papers need to find Pure Math Jesus. Formulas with hidden units? Not even once. Crane TP 410. How could you?

No End-to-End Encrypted Social Media?
I really want a Facebook (the old Facebook timeline) replacement, but end-to-end encrypted, and decentralised so there’s longevity. I love Lemmy, I like the idea of Mastodon (twitter-like sites just aren’t my thing. ActivityPub rocks. However, none of them are encrypted. PixelFed is neato, but I don’t plan sharing my personal photos with the whole of the internet, which seems to be the only choice with ActivityPub. Signal and other encrypted messaging apps are great, but are for direct messaging. Where are the encrypted social media apps? Matrix is cool and all, but it’s aimed at groups. Like discord / MS teams replacement. Someone told me about Futo Circles, which seems to tick all the boxes and built on top of Matrix, but it’s currently abandoned. Are there any other alternatives? My wallet is open, I would very much like to use such an app. I am no programmer, so sadly cannot take on the mantle of continuing the Futo Circles project.
Ideas for Signal Android Automatic Cloud Backups?
I’m aware of how to set up chat backups on Android, but this only makes local backups that you have to manually upload or copy. I’m trying to find a solution where I can set and forget backups to the cloud. My requirements are: 1. It doesn’t require me exposing the rest of my file system/cloud storage to a third party app without scoping (filesync works, but doesn’t meet this criteria). 2. It can upload directly to a cloud service So far, no dice :/ Is there some workaround? P.S. my potential solution is move Signal to my Shelter Work profile, where I do have filesync installed, but then I won’t have contacts access, which is a slight pain (and because I don’t want to create contacts in my work profile).
