Unrelated but just have a look at the comments in that post. It is hilarious because almost every comment says the site has become slow. Engineers measures load time their own way; users experience load time their own way.
- thamer 17y agoSome of them complain that the site is slow in the sense that their friends' activities are pushed to their timeline a few minutes after they've happened instead of instantly. Not exactly the kind of performance problem the front-end engineers had in mind, I'm sure. How are all these people “fans” of Engineering at Facebook?
- sgk284 17y agoYea, I became a fan of FB engineering hoping to talk about their distributed systems and what not. Turns out well over 99% of the fans are simply there to complain about something on facebook thinking an engineer will fix it. None of them know anything about technology and are often complaining about apps that facebook has nothing to do with. It's a shame. Could have been a cool group.
- Psyonic 17y agoIt'd be nice if a group like that could have a simple admission test. I'm not trying to exclude people that are actually interested, but something really simple just to keep out the whiners could be useful.
