Engineers at Facebook must be in an interesting position. Working on interesting technical problems behind the controversial social network offering the only way they can make world a better place is by contributing their products to the open source community.
- crorella 13y agoI agree. Facebook is a company with an awful product, but great byproducts like all the open source projects listed here.
- mseebach 13y agoNo, helping hundreds of millions of people stay in touch and have fun does not make the world a better place.
- amaks 13y agoOK, I can understand the staying in touch part, but what kind of having fun do you have in mind? Watching video ads?
- mseebach 13y agoLooking at stuff my friends share, sharing stuff myself and engaging in banter in the comment thread on those items. No, it's generally not the stuff of the court of Sokrates, but definitely fun.
