I don't know the specifics, but we already collect the time people spend coding for productivity telemetry, so we already have that signal. I assume the team that maintains our chat system either hooks into an editor notification, or i

At my workplace, coding automatically silences your message notifications!

You don't get access to randomness or time functions or anything that could change the output of a function with the same input

If Hash(attribute) % buckets == 0 That's basically all you need for this. The hash algorithm doesn't matter as long as it's fast and returns a number. For your example it's "hash(user_id) % 2" because a 50&#x2F

Scale changes everything, I don't think it's fair to shrug this off

Fwiw that's what we do at work but I don't think it's open source

"Better part of a decade" means "more than half a decade", so definitely not a decade yet

Sapling is the mercurial fork. In all the codebases I’ve worked on we’ve never used the git integration

Meta employs kernel developers (and MySQL developers and memcache developers and the people that created and released zstd and a lot more). Aside from all of these are also a bunch of python code developers, and you might want to recheck th

How do? It’s little money neither relative to metas income nor relative to anyone else?

This breaks down at scale and across languages. All the FAANGs make heavy use of the equivalent of grepping in their code base

A lot of these open source developers that made and improved this "truly free stack" are employed by meta and other big techs

That's a funny definition of "little money"

Hack is custom made for facebook and its use cases, and there’s no use for distinguishing those kind of IO at Facebook. The main use case for the effects system is actually privacy, wherein where processes that aren’t privacy controlled can

It doesn't quite fit your requirements, but Facebook's PHP variant has an effects system like that which they use: https://docs.hhvm.com/hack/contexts-and-capabilities/introdu...

That could be much better solved through coeffects, but unfortunately most languages don’t support that. Doesn’t mean using async functions is a good way for this either

You don’t need to “fix” this, it was a direct full quote from the article. Here’s another one: “They do not appear to be seeking news elsewhere”

by phyrex 2y ago
One of the main points of the article is “Less news is being consumed by Canadians”. So clearly Canadians are not going to the news sites to get the news from there like you claimed

I don’t understand the question? iPhoto detects faces and you can assign one of your contacts to that face?

They’re also an economic moat to stop other networks from emerging. Facebook can pay those fines, $upstart can’t.

Meta does get audited

The difference is that the information gets processed, stored, and accessed only on your own devices with Apple, and on metas servers in the case of Facebook.

No, it really was a legal privacy thing. I worked in privacy at Meta at that time. Everybody was eager to ship it everywhere, but it wasn't worth the wrath of the EU to launch without a clear data separation between IG and threads.
