1) Tell us the most fucked up shit about Facebook you know, lad.

2) Also, why does the platform perform like shit even though it's made by a multi-billion company? (The apps are shit too)

3) Do you think they backdoored Whattsapp?

If you found a security flaw, then report it. You get money. Yet you're sitting here talking shit on an anonymous imageboard. You haven't found any security flaws, have you, anon?

Worked with a lot of teams; worked as a software engineer and then an engineering manager

Dude, honestly, nobody gives a fuck about your data. Do you really think that you matter that much?

I was asking what languages are used in your software stack.

Unless you mean to say they let you use whatever?

1) There's honestly not that much fucked up about the product itself. Company itself has high egos, fake personality, corporate worship problem

2) Internal version of FB is even worse. There's a lot of over-complicated infrastructure underneath the hood

3) Not at all

>>56102623
Depends on what you work on. Most of facebook.com + API endpoints is in Hack/PHP. But there's projects being written in pretty much every even remotely popular language at FB. C, C++, Python, Java, Haskell, OCaml off the top of my head

>>56102640
Yes, creep (notrlly)

>>56102593
So how was dealing with the poo outside the loo? Did you quit because they were adding more H1Bs and you didn't want to deal with the poo?

Is it true that it listens to your microphone to target you with ads on mobile?

Could the engineers look at people's conversations if they wanted to? What kind of protection to they have from FB employees?

Any shady stuff you noticed?

>There's honestly not that much fucked up about the product itself.

With the exception that it eventually encourages a 'like button' inspired insipid discourse. Also there's the tendency of the company to want to do things without people's knowledge or consent like those cookies you can't block.

The whole thing creeps me out. It's Orwellian to me. They could have just put decent ads on the side panel and made a really decent buck but instead they went deep into creaper land of the big money that's into stalking and studying people to try to directly market to them.

They also study what you type and what you delete. They want to know why you censor yourself. Creeeeeeepy.

How comes the Android client is a piece of turd?
My mother uses Facebook extensively (yeah I know), and uses an Android tablet (Note 10.1 2014) to do so.

The Messenger and Facebook both causes the tablet to freeze up, they crash, they hang, they are just fucking shit in general.

One big example.
> Want to post picture
> It opens this custom gallery, fuck knows why
> The custom gallery seem to have no thumbnails and is trying to load ~100 full-sized images on the screen. They are in full-size, only scaled down.
> It lags like there is no tomorrow.

This is still a thing, it's a bug right now.
But hey, for 2-3 years, the entire client was godawful slow, unusable.
Only lately did they decide to implement at least a proper threaded loading.

So...
They make so much money.
Yet the client sucks so fucking much.

How do they manage this?

>>56106020
not him, but i've done research of online communities (have worked with MSR and facebook, and looked at data from a few places.

- just using the word "insipid" makes you sound a bit like a cringy neckbeard.

- doing things without your knowledge is a reality of all websites, including 4chan. consent is the same issue. you can either consent to the policies 4chan has and the design of the site, or you can leave. the same is true of facebook. you can tell me that it's not fair that facebook's role in society makes it deleterious to opt out (something that's not the case with 4chan), but that's a different point. make that or don't.

- every corporation has an agenda. that agenda is the same: to make as much money as possible. the parameters for that function are simple bordering on stupid, like to avoid committing any very costly crimes (e.g. selling baby organs), but our entire society is simply not designed to produce corporations that maximize social good.

i also don't mean this to be an angsty commentary about capitalism; this is just an acknowledgement that society has very few axes for evaluating companies, and along those axes there's almost no notion of ethical/moral justice. it's like thinking about three dimensions on a two-dimensional plane.

- speaking from work i've done at facebook, a lot of the design into the question of self censorship is thinking about how and why people do it to better understand if you're withholding something you value that you might want to share with your friends.

you can frame it in other ways, and i'm sure there are ad teams that rub their hands together with excitement about targeting ads toward "reluctant ____s", but the people that study this stuff are (as far as i could ever tell) motivated by a desire to learn more about people in general.

Very high quality AMA, anon. You used no secure tripcode or anything, so anyone can pretend to be you, and you also provided no proof, so if you actually tell us something interesting, people will just say that you're roleplaying.

Facebook targets users and non users. 4th chan and most other sites aren't sucking up all your contacts and buying credit card purchase data like facebook is. That sort of behavior affects people who will never have an Facebook acc
