I would say it's the same either way you go on the spectrum. Look at the people on the far right supporting Trump.

I get all of that, but why does the headline say "he gets to run the company a while longer?" That makes it sound like he's a detriment to the company.

What's wrong with Zuck running the company? He's grown it into a big business, he's steered through many challenges. He may not have always gotten it right, but this headline makes it sound like he needs to go... Why?

It might just be my experience dealing with Bell when we had ExpressVu before becoming cable cutters, and Shaw's Internet service when I was growing up. I also hate the things Bell has tried to do through the CRTC, like that whole Inte

We're in Canada and have been cable cutters for almost five years now. We've gotten by on Netflix US and YouTube with the occasional pirated streaming site, but we're barely ever using Netflix anymore. We've turned to Ko

Does anyone know why Facebook never followed through with open sourcing Haystack, the photo storage tool which I believe is now powering inbox attachments as well?

It definitely feels like they're moving towards a UI refresh just based on some of the tweaks they've rolled out lately. Besides, they're due for an overhaul.

I've noticed something like this in Chrome on my Mac anytime I switch tabs... If I come back to a tab, it is just a blank white page and I need to refresh to bring the page back up. I recently did a clean install of El Capitan and the

Sorry for posting one today- it was my first. I only did it because I'm a big Facebook fan and always enjoy talking about the downtime. They don't really give postmortems anymore, so this is the place I come to to talk about it.

Platform page came up momentarily and said code push successfully completed 2 hours ago, major outage 13 minutes ago.

I've seen talks with engineers that say this is this case. I think the one in particular was from @Scale. They've had the occasional issue with an intern dropping a table in production, but they said they haven't really run i

They probably have a while to go before they hit the ceiling, if Google's news last week about holding over 2 billion lines of code in one repository means anything. SRC: http://www.wired.com/2015/09/google-2-

I hope we do actually get a postmortem this time... The outage seems to have come from a code push, and wasn't down too long. They only seem to do postmortems when the problem stems from anything other than code.

Looks like it's mostly back up, but a bit slow. Isn't this around the time they do their morning code push? EDIT: Ads don't seem to be loading, and the sidebar doesn't load intermittently.

Still down in Winnipeg. Alternating between a FB error page and a white page with "Service Unavailable."
