Descriptions

Welcome to the staging ground for new communities! Each proposal has a description in the "Descriptions" category and a body of questions and answers in "Incubator Q&A". You can ask questions (and get answers, we hope!) right away, and start new proposals.

Are you here to participate in a specific proposal? Click on the proposal tag (with the dark outline) to see only posts about that proposal and not all of the others that are in progress. Tags are at the bottom of each post.

Too broad (5 comments)
Too broad
Michael‭ wrote 4 months ago

I think the scope is too broad. From finance to medicine to IT? I'm not seeing it.

Counterargument: "Outdoors" is pretty broad, too.

as principles in risk and security are all shared between areas, I think it's still manageable. Plus that each area has its own category. I think the same argument can be applied with software development: each language has its own ecosystem, but the site is not too broad.

I think it should probably not mix up financial risks, safety (make sure nobody gets hurt) and security (make sure no bad guys gets hold of information), those are 3 completely different and mostly unrelated things. For example, I'm competent at safety-critical design, but a novice in security and completely uninterested in the finance-whatever.

Finance-related could be be a proposal of its own (someone proposed one in the past). Information security is already on-topic while related to programming at https://software.codidact.com/ and the parts that aren't, ie servers and networking, could in that case do with a proposal of its own. Safety should be covered by the relevant engineering site or if no such site exists, one could be proposed. SE got a general engineering site, for example.

I've renamed it to Business processes. Would that be better?
