quote:

Many people feel that Joel Kaplan has too much power over our decisions. Can we get him on a Q&A to learn more about his role, influence, and beliefs?

Zuckerberg said the company would work to provide more information about the operations of its policy team. But he dismissed the idea that Kaplan has undue influence at the company, saying that Monika Bickert, the company’s head of policy management, plays a stronger day-to-day role in policy development. And Zuckerberg bristled at the implication that Kaplan’s party affiliation should disqualify him from the job.

“I’ve seen a bunch of comments internally that — that I have to say bothered me a bit,” Zuckerberg said. “That basically asked whether Joel can be in this role, or can be doing this role, on the basis of the fact that he is a Republican, or has beliefs that are more conservative than the average employee at the company. And I have to say that I find that line of questioning to be very troubling. In my work with Joel, I’ve found him to be ... very rigorous and principled in his thinking.”

“One of the things that we talk about a little bit less inside the company is that ... the community we serve tends to be, on average, ideologically a little bit more conservative than our employee base,” Zuckerberg said. “Maybe ‘a little’ is an understatement. … If we want to actually do a good job of serving people, [we have to take] into account that there are different views on different things, and that if someone disagrees with a view, that doesn’t necessarily mean that they’re hateful or have bad intent.”

Whatever the gently caress leads to more clicks and engagement, do it, don't ask questions. Zuckerberg is our little Adolf Eichmann.

quote:

In her Q&A with interns the same day, Sandberg noted that Facebook had been used to raise billions of dollars for charity and had also been an important tool for activists around the world.

“We don’t get credit for any of those movements,” she said. “We don’t get credit for any of it. But the brave women who spoke out on Me Too, the brave people who spoke out on Black Lives Matter, the brave people who organized the Women’s March — they needed the tool. There’s a reason this is happening now and it didn’t happen before.”

Still, she told interns that her top priority overall was recruiting.

“Everyone knows today’s a big day,” she said. “We have an advertiser boycott. We have a very important civil rights meeting. We are putting out our civil rights audit tomorrow. It’s the end of a quarter. There’s a lot going on — and in the middle of all of that, the most important thing we do is grow the company with the right people.”

Sandberg is somehow taking credit for BLM and MeToo while also whining that they don't get any money from it. These people are way beyond magical thinking, they have gone completely loving insane.

INLAND EMPIRE — This is a team with a lot of past, but little present. And almost no future.
The victims of violence at Kenosha are suing Facebook along with Rittenhouse.

quote:

Earlier this month, BuzzFeed News reported that a Kenosha Guard event page encouraging attendees to bring arms to the city had been flagged 455 times by people on Facebook. CEO Mark Zuckerberg told employees the company’s failure to remove the event page was “an operational mistake.” BuzzFeed News also reported that Facebook did not remove the page after the shootings occurred, despite its claims to employees and the press to the contrary. The company later apologized for misleading the public.

This lawsuit, McNeal v. Facebook, Inc., follows a similar complaint filed in the wake of the deadly “Unite the Right” rally held in Charlottesville, Virginia, in 2017. Both lawsuits cite Reconstruction-era laws in attempts to hold white supremacists accountable for violent suppression of constitutional rights. The Kenosha suit also attempts to pierce the broad protections afforded to platforms like Facebook for user-generated content under Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act.

So who is still left working at Facebook besides just the most broey of the tech bros? I am imagining endless clones of Palmer Luckey and Notch just stacked from floor to ceiling. Is it just a company full of the worst humans on earth now?

It's funny how quickly they are pivoting now that it looks like Democrats are going to control everything. The only thing Zuckerberg gives a poo poo about is preserving his monopoly and pandering to whoever he has to in order to accomplish that. This motherfucker should be in prison.

No, it looks like they hosed up their BGP config and managed to de-peer themselves from the external world. Their IP addresses are all gone and they have to physically visit all of their edge routers to put peering back in place.

How the gently caress does Facebook simultaneously lose all BGP on all of its in-house developed backbone hardware at once? That's an amazing show of technical ability and force, but that's far from a loving accident.

Here's an article about it, it's called the Express Backbone:

https://engineering.fb.com/2017/05/01/data-center-engineering/building-express-backbone-facebook-s-new-long-haul-network/

"Whoops, haha, just a uhhhh DNS error on one of our whole-rear end system's specifically compartmentalized components!"

No, they're loving dropping something or someone off their whole infrastructure, which if I'm correct about it being related to experimental Deep AI is probably a wise move.
