Meta seem fairly innovative. Their r&d labs seem to produce some really cool things.
The basic issue is none of it seems to be making any money when it ends up in products and services.
Main reason there seems to be that their walled garden approach is tolerated at best. They just aren't very good at it outside of a feed.
- touisteur 7mo agoSome things that Meta shares or opensources is discrete but amazing. lz4 and zstd and Yann Collet's work. io_uring (don't know if Jens Axboe is still there). And the open timecard projects, and overall OCP work.
- yacin 7mo agoyeah, i'm referring to product innovations, but i should've made that explicit.
