content but also better ad targetting by better understanding all of the content that users post
the tools but not necessarily the data, presumably they have internally trained versions
Meta seems to be doing fine financially besides the VR money pit. Also in a weird way having TikTok around just bolsters their case against any sort of anti trust enforcement. That said I am sure they would be happy if…
privacy and security is a pendulum, it swung hard to security post 9/11 and is swinging hard towards privacy currently. Id be surprised if we ever actually reach a happy middle ground but I am sure at some point we will…
anecdotally from a few folks I know who work there it does get completely deleted after a month or two I believe. Like you said between GDPR, the FTC settlement and just general bad press they actually take deleting…
yep, its because of the FCO ruling. The other thing I think everyone spouting money are missing is that FB would much rather be able to use the link between your FB and IG accounts to better serve you up ads based on…
yep, a lot of this is fallout from the financial crisis and all of the bank mergers that have happened. A number of the big banks i worked with a few years ago had sooo many different systems from all their acquisitions…

I suspect you are right and most of the top talent is in major cities but even then most faang jobs are in the bay area. Anecdotally (and with all the caveats that go with that) I wanted to work for a faang but turned…
I imagine there are some, a lot of factory operation optimization uses heavy operations research which isnt a huge jump to some sort of AI/ML
I am just hoping self driving cars come out in the next 5-10 years and hopefully that expands the geographic area you can reasonably live in and still commute to work.
I work in the ediscovery industry, we very regularly need to send large collections which can easily be a TB+ to another location on short notice. One of our favorite things to do with new folks is have them hop on a…
this in my opinion is the real issue, when i fly international people tend to check bags/the planes have ample overhead bin space i always find that the boarding process goes surprisingly fast. On domestics inevitably…
They bought a tool called Equivio too, i work in the ediscovery/legal world and it was very rapidly becoming the industry standard. My understanding is Microsoft is going to integrate alot of the functionality into…
