Positive stories associated with the brand seem especially needed these days. Perhaps FB keeps other “rainy day” projects as well.
- superqd 5y agoI was contacted by their recruiters recently and started getting warmed up on their interviewing, etc. However, this was back in December when they put out ads against Apple's choice to allow users to opt out of tracking. It kind of made it difficult to want to follow through on the interview process after that... so I didn't.

Often, the most time consuming part of machine learning is creating the labeled dataset. It's amazing to see what can be achieved without one.
