I often see two people I'm following for completely different reasons interact with each other. I've come to the conclusion that the entire world has only a few hundred people in it, and everyone knows everyone else.
Never thought it might have anything to do with me being a mutual follower.

“Another flaw with Metcalfe's Law is that not all connections are created equal. If you believe #DunbarsNumber, a person's maximum number of meaningful relationships tops out at 150. That implies that social networks actually scale more linearly than exponentially, and they aren't as bulletproof as their investors would have you believe.”

Today in my weekly really large #SAFeAgileFramework cross ART alignment meeting with many people.
Again three new teams.
Very short introduction of the new teams with the usual superhero and/or pet names.
Inbetween someone asks if each team can simply say what system component they do.
So true. I am always mixing team and components, forgetting who does what. Sure it is written somewhere in Confluence.

Dunbar was an anthropologist, not a neuroanatomy researcher, and Dunbar's Number was an ethnographical observation, not a biological one.
"Your social life has a biological limit: 150. That’s the number—Dunbar’s number, proposed by the British psychologist Robin Dunbar three decades ago—of people with whom you can have meaningful relationships."

That's your opening? Not off too a great start there Ian.

@sam_liban , gern.
Abschließend noch ein kurzer Selbsttest: Wie viele Menschen in Deinem direkten beruflichen und privaten Umfeld - #DunbarsNumber - leben Deiner Meinung nach in einer verengten Bubble?

I am in a daily work context which already exceeds the 150 people of dunbars number.
So, what does this mean for my social brain capacity concerning my private connections? -

New #SAFe #agile Version 6 considers now #okr . It is interesting in this context to think of our limitations as human beings as described by dunbars number.
#dunbarsnumberAnd not to forget that the idea of agile of #scrum agile manifesto has not the roots in #lean as SAFe has.

@bstacey @DarlavdRiet @JamesGleick @ftrain Even if #DunbarsNumber exists, it’s not clear it means much? As #DavidGraeber and #DavidWengrow wrote, it’s not just modern cities or sports teams that have stretched far beyond any supposed limit. Native Americans or Australians would long ago travel half a continent to hang out with fellow clan members they weren’t related to and hadn’t met. Dunbar hasn’t limited humans for millennia, if he ever did.

@crasher35 @samir @realn2s max practical size of primate tribes incl #HomoSapiens #DunbarsNumber ? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunbar%27s_number This is overcome in some ways by cities and complex human societies

My goal is to follow 10,000 of the smartest, wittiest, most creative people on the planet and have 150 of them follow me back and high-five me once in a while. Utopia! #DunbarsNumber https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunbar%27s_number

“One thing seems certain: we need to pass beyond the information scaling threshold. This means finding new ways to think together with the internet. And a future where we own our second brains seems brighter than one where we don’t.”

@atomicpoet @rysiek And if you have one million followers, how can you possibly interact with them all in a meaningful way?
#DunbarsNumber is about 150 people...

@mangeurdenuage @EssentialUtinsil @GavriloGrindset @teknomunk Ok, back at this one, quite long. I am pretty sure I agree with pretty much all of that. Other than, I'd kind of consider the idea that Darwinism is being expressed in this shitshow of government/pharma, because obvi.. ( agree. and it isn't all inherently nagitive, I agree that far as well, most of what you said. But, consider, first that Darwinism is conforming to an environment, however, we've hit and "echo" point there, ghosting "natural selection." The environment we live in is man-made, not natural. Therefore, selection to the environment, is an unnatural, man-made selection. Iceland/Downs is a great illustration of the positive impacts, focused, and measured. However, seed oils ... are clearly not in the best intrest of society but are highly influencing population health. I mean, it comes back to eugenics I guess (I'm sure some symantic nazi will tell me it means some specific, evil thing, but, broadly) it's eugenics, the topic of how we influance the gene pool, and studying it, and what happens, isn't enherantly evil to me, I think it would reviel that we ahve fucked ourselfs pretty hard with this whole "government" consept, allowing them to control SOOO much of what we are allowed to even be biologically, and then taking our profits that we could reinvest back into our own families, just... Dunno.
Mostly agree with you on that though. Just not sure I buy "government" will ever be a good thing. Dunbar's number baby... I'm sure I have that rant somewhere, let me check my hashtags... #DunbarsNumber #GovernmentIsTheVirus #MemeWormHole

@shebang @Vulcan Yes, top that with the fact that there isn't nearly as much pressure on men to be PHYSICALLY attractive (because, we just dismiss culturally how they are supposed to be financially superior, and have that massive pressure on us).
So, if you feel unattractive, and are a woman, "more people would love me if I was just a dude" is kinda a thing. A very toxic thing to young women in today's society.
This was CREATED when cooking, cleaning, providing a comfortable home environment was devalued by society. The factor women could rise to and become, and that would "comfort and please men" and shit like Instagram started making women feel like they had to be "super sexy" and "land the guy with money," rather than traditional values.
Modern society is focused on that, money and image, and why? BECAUSE that is the element of society that feeds the political machine, gets votes, gets headlines, gets ratings, gets clicks, likes, fans, etc... Yet none of it is good for mental health of men, or women.
They want all women to "be hot" and all men to "be rich" because, if we all focus on that, then the government gets power, and the family doesn't matter.
In nature, the family matters, the government is a virus... #DunbarsNumber #GovernmentIsTheVirus #MemeWormHole
It's all a bullshit powerplay, and humanity, people, individuals are losing because so many now believe the lie, and don't see the truth, #ThePeopleDontNeedTheGovernment but $TheGovernmentNeedsThePeople -
CW: fediverse tech
@pixelfed good for you. Decentralization is good :) Maybe to encourage this, #fediverse server software could build in a default limit on the number of registered users (eg #DunbarsNumber)? This would need to be transparent to the server admin, and easy for them to change, but I think it would be good to seed the idea.
