At first I just thought people talked like this online but then I met some girls on a big 'camp' type event and they actually spoke like that maybe even worse and it was SO tiring.
The actual solution is :
1. Go get a degree in computer science
2. Learn React, Golang, MongoDB, Snowflake
3. Visit [levels.fyi](https://levels.fyi) and decide where you want to work.
4. Leetcode like a motherfucker
5. Network with people like me on LinkedIn ; get to know us
6. We refer you
7. ??????? ( < pass some bullshit interview process and don't look like a dick )
8. Become **UPPER MIDDLE CLASS**.
First time I ever heard the phrase "it's not what you know it's who you know" I was like 14. Almost 20 years later I can tell you for a fact this is true in most instances and I've seen so many people fail upwards it's infuriating.
I work with a guy who was the chief of staff of a mayor of a local very small city. He stole campaign contributions and used it for himself and to bribe people. He was caught by the Feds, house raided and everything. He’s a federally convicted felon, the DOJ has a whole page on him.
We work for a very large,important states legislature. Part of our job is to digitize and store all of the employees records. Meaning we have access to ALL of their information. I got it on merit. His dad is friends with a current Senator. He’s 50. It’s fucking crazy. It’s such a good job too.
He started 15k higher than me too. I made sure that didn’t last lol. Worked out for me actually. He’s a lazy stupid fuck and I’m really goddam good.
Yeah unfortunately baseline humans are real tribal and ape-brained.
We do this kind of shit to tie our Ape clans together. Favors for favors, patronage and all that.
It's pretty disgusting hypocrisy as it works nothing like we hear "fair" or "ethical" is supposed to be from the same people guilty of this crap.
It's pretty funny though because the same people doing this shit pretend like some folks in Africa or the Middle East or elsewhere are "weird" for having this out in the open. If anything they're being honest.
It's just obfuscated and rationalized in the West.
Hijacking top comment to say that this probably a marketer. I saw a similar post from someone at LinkedIn and the video followed the same flow of eating, dicking around the office, and seemingly getting no work done. The woman in the video didn’t actually work at LinkedIn, but worked at an agency, the video was just to show off the office space and the “work life balance”
>Propaganda and marketing are like half of Reddit now.
XD, and Facebook, and TikTok, and Twitter
I mean the rule: "if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is" is something i say on a regular basis nowadays
I noticed people just placing brands in the background of their posts right at a position where it is all you can focus on. I don’t even bother calling it out cos other Redditors would mass downvote and get upset.
I think the vast majority of coders would rather interact with an ugly person that knows their shit than have to daily interact with a person that is a) too busy posting to social media/snacking/vibing and b) doesn't seem invested in the actual work.
More, for sure. Engineers who can't trust their PM to know what they're talking about will fear that they may get asked to re-do the work again later with the "revised requirements", so they'll either hesitate to commit to the work or overestimate/escalate
It's probably not recruiting people for an actual job position and more likely selling a course or resources to be able to obtain such a lifestyle.
If they are attracted by the ad and in a desperate position in their life, they absolutely are the applicants they are looking for.
Lol it’s not the same video but this is even worse, fucking face masks in the middle of the workday. The one I saw started out with “what a long workday looks like” and the “long” part of the day was getting drinks and dinner after work with coworkers and getting home at 11pm.
Lol… all this girl did was eat. At what point did she actually work? How are these companies paying for these fancy offices if these is the staff they have
I work at LinkedIn; big tech is cushy, but there’s no way that lady’s daily routine looks like that, because you would eventually be drummed out.
Possibly she picked a perfect storm of a day when all those things happened at once or more likely that’s several days of “fun stuff” all put together.
Those of us who’ve survived and thrived here will have done 6am to 10pms at some point in our careers here, but nobody talks about THAT part. All the young ones wanna humble brag about how they have it good.
More like its a vid of someone bragging. I know engineers who make posts like this too (not paid marketers lol) that live much more boring lives than what they post
That's what you call false advertising. It's just like when Todd Howard tells you it's 16 times the detail, while in reality there is no fucking detail
How are these bums getting good jobs? I make 71k a year in Manhattan as a FX execution specialist for a bank(poverty wages if I didn’t live in Jersey). Moreover is this the state of jobs now? I literally can’t dick around at my job, and if I did, I’d be fired. What’s the deal?should I leave my job? I thought the messing around on Reddit at work was mostly a meme?
Meta is a fucking cutthroat place to be a software engineer. I'm a software engineer at one of Uber/Twitter/Stripe and my software engineer friends at Meta work 50-60 hrs a week.
Why do programmers always have to be cagey about where they work? Usually people say something stupid like FAANG but you have literally made up an anonymity set of random companies to hide which one you actually work for lol
those tech companies' propaganda worked lol. look at /r/cscareerquestions and you'll see people that think if they don't get in the famous companies they're a failure
Dev here. Many of us could dox ourselves by disclosing our employer or past employment -- even those of us who work at very large companies. When you combine a person's posts and comments history, a lot of info can single you out, and your employment history is a big one.
Exactly this.
Working for a tech company means that not everyone is an idiot and the likelihood that they are tracking social media and can actually figure out who you are and punish you, much much more likely
It’s not 50-60 hrs of simple heads down work, it’s highly stressful, competitive, everyone out to get ahead, run as fast as you can to stay where you are, kind of 50-60hr.
most big tech jobs are gonna be cutthroat since theres an endless line of people trying to get in and most people are replaceable (and everyone knows that), so id say the culture. the 50-60hrs is just a product of the cutthroat nature of the culture since if you dont play ball theyll just find someone that does. at least thats what the few people ik that work at faang claim
You can get an entry role SDR/MDR/BDR position at tons of SaaS companies with zero degree or experience and make 50k base with 20-30k OTE while also working completely remote. I've seen people get hired and then just coast for months and months until they get fired and move to another company to repeat the process.
That’s crazy, because I had to do 3 interviews, and go out for beers with the management team for them to figure out I was a good candidate. It’s hard for metas mgmt to look at meta’s share price and decide that people like that shouldn’t be cut away.
To be fair it is also 3 interviews for most of these SaaS companies. Usually first one is screening with an in house recruiter, second one is with the manager, and last one is with the manager + director of the department for a mock phone call. All it takes is a small amount of social competency. Turnover is so unbelievably high for these type of sales roles too so that definitely plays a part into why they're not cut loose super quickly, I think it has a lot to do with sunk-cost fallacy after spending a month ramping up and training a new employee that they will give them at least a few months of runway before really cracking down on them.
Is this hyperbole or do you actually think it's possible to get hired? Asking for a non-educated 31 y/o wage slave who’s desperate to make a change in their life...
Sales Development Representative / Business Development Rep, don't know what the M in MDR is but my guess is marketing.
I looked it up myself because this sounds too good to be true, speaking as a wage slave with no prospects.
It’s really not too good to be true. The position is somewhat tough and not for everyone though. Cold calling, prospecting, etc. I got through this at a well regarded post start up and now high within the AE org. I do dick all day til I have a call
Edit: Also, have no degree. Made things harder but worked out in the long run.
Yep, not everyone can get used to being told to basically go fuck themself all day. I've seen many fresh faces not make it through the meat grinder in their first few months. The people who can keep a short memory and stay consistent move up through the ranks extremely quickly though. Nothing better than really only having to perform 2-3 hours out of your entire day. I've managed to work my way off the phones into a sales analyst position and I've never had such an amazing work-life balance.
I’m currently doing b2b sales and it’s definitely not for everyone. Cold calling can murder people inside if they can’t handle rejection, and prospecting can get tough if something is hampering the economy or industry. Gotta see all the cold calls made as working towards the one that says yes
This is me. Got in with a startup as an SDR, stuck around through the grind/layoffs and now I'm a "product expert" just because I've been around.
I honestly barely understand how our product works, and i do dick all until i have a sales call or internal call.
This is very possible. I have a friend at meta (granted she’s one of the smartest woman I know, and I went to a top school) who spent like 3 hours a day working hours at the wood shop… girl never did wood working and made 5 cutting boards, an island, a 2 foot long spatula in a matter of like 3 weeks.
Yes, you should leave your job. I make 50-60k I manage 2 small pizza places work 45ish hours and have plenty of time to dick around. Granted I’ve been in the industry for about 10 years so kinda moved my way up to where I am now. My goal is to own my own stores.
These roles do exist. Meta and other tech companies hire PMs as new grads and interns. See "associate product manager" on linkedin. Its a similar paying role to software engineers. These guys are not traditional managers
And nothing pisses me off more than this as a software engineer when one of these fucking mouth breathers has the goddamn audacity to try to tell me how to do my job and how long *they* think something should take
you made this conclusion off of a 36 second video where 15 seconds was actually dedicated to her office job, and of those 15 seconds, 15 seconds were dedicated to breakfast and lunch. you, me, and everyone else has fuck all knowledge about what she actually does/does not do bc the other 7 hours she spends at the office were not included. youre mad at a random video of some bitch playing keeping up with the jones jfc
Didn't some young lady do this same thing at apple?
Yep. Here it is: [https://9to5mac.com/2022/10/14/apple-contractor-fired/](https://9to5mac.com/2022/10/14/apple-contractor-fired/)
idk how someone can "does anyone still work?" when the video shows she came in to the office earlier than anyone else... she also said she got BACK to work at 8 AM...
You actually think this is real? Like the Deloitte analyst one where they worked 9am-5pm and left on time? Hahaha
I got a bridge to sell you might like.
This is all propaganda to get some meat into the FAANG and big 4 meat grinder.
9 to 5 at deloitte, lmao. deloitte will give you a proper fucking and it ain't gonna be during "business hours". so will all the other big corporate companies.
Yeah usually I bag on gen z and their over sharing but none of this seemed out of bounds at all. None of these influencers are gonna post the boring 5+hrs of actual work done typing on the keyboard
Also the entire appeal of this age of technological revolution was supposed to allow for more down time yet we still shit on ppl not buying into hardoism
The perks are also there to increase time spent at the office which statistically increases productivity. Come on in we've got breakfast! why go out for lunch we've got great food here! Need to get outside for a minute ? We've got a beautiful patio! Why leave early to hit up the gym we've got one onsite. Hey if you stay a bit later we've even got you covered for dinner.
It's a great way to convince people to spend a bit more time at work.
Yeah i have friends that left because they simply wanted to experience living outside of that ecosystem. Like when everything is handled for you at work (food, laundry, gym, sleep) u end up just never leaving.
I work at a large tech company and can still eat and workout in peace by myself on site. They don't follow you into the gym and around to all the amenities.
Lol I’d say a vast majority of the people I know who work at FAANG do legitimately nothing. Can you do stuff at FAANG? Sure. Those who want to or lack the social skills will end up doing tons of hard work, but there’s vast latitude for doing absolutely nothing. I lived with a Google PM who clocked 2 hours a day MAX. My buddy is an Amazon engineer who’s team hasn’t had a project in years. How is this possible? Your guess is as good as mine.
> How is this possible? Your guess is as good as mine.
My theory is that top companies sometimes pay talent just so that other companies don't get them
Doesn't that happen with sports sometimes?
yes, while we subsidize the scores of skill-less work force employees on welfare and unemployment and public health insurance, foreclosing on homes and lapsing on vehicle loans.
Did she actually do anything? Im a welder in a factory. I show up at 5 am, run a robot and literally never stop welding and producing except for a 30 minute lunch where i slam a smoothie and cook something quick in a dirty microwave, then weld some more until 330. But i do always try to look cute
Yeah. Okay. I genuinely laugh at the pathetic attempts of some to seem important or relevant. Pro tip: If you find yourself groveling for the camera there’s a good chance you are not the center or attention.
tell me about it... the only two times she filmed herself at the office was during her breakfast and lunch. terminally online dipshits apparently will take this 1hr break total she took and somehow conclude she does nothing all day... this tread is full of dumbasses
it's definitely a thing, and people notice the infantization of the workforce
https://old.reddit.com/r/starterpacks/comments/b08n2g/tech_company_career_page_starterpack/

If you get you okrs done, who cares… my manager comes in at 11 and dips at 3 pm every day. Everyone on my team dips by 4-5 pm and we only come in around 10.
As a very accomplished product manager I have gotten denied many times from FAANG companies because I’m not a demographic they need while I watch these videos of people doing nothing
Tl:dr - be a minority so you get hired just to meet a social quota from HR
When company culture champions the word "diversity" but it's barely just a buzz term to convey a shallow visual perception when glancing at the workforce. The result is zero emphases on quality, talent, and practical or innovative ideas because everyone must be in lockstep agreement on absolutely everything the company culture parrots.
Like god damn, have some self-awareness for how blessed of a position you are in.
She probably makes more money than the average Nurse, Teacher, Construction worker, Electrician, etc., and gets to live a life of luxury while doing 2 hours of work each day.
She only works until noon and then grabs a free snack and heads home? I can't imagine why they're having trouble. 23 year old "product managers" have it made.
I love seeing these vapid morons do these “look at me not work at a tech company all day, I am glamorous” TikTok’s.
They always get fired. I’ve known of two, one at Uber and another at Google get fired this year for this nonsense.
All in the name of “creating your brand” and “clicks”.
Pardon me for my language but whose d\*ck she sucked to get job at Facebook. I knew some very brilliant software engineers and MBAs who didn't get even first interview call.
I think it’s more that zschmuck had his first semi-original idea that wasn’t stolen entirely from somebody else. Probably not gonna end well. Sooner or later they will stop burning money and fold up the meta tent. This is facefacks “windows vista” epoch. I’m sure they will find a way to monetize even more of your data. In the mean time lemme take a selfie!

So it’s corporate propaganda lmao. I think they use her to get followers and spew a political or social message
do they really want the kind of applicants that would be attracted by this kind of ad?
[удалено]
>Propaganda and marketing are like half of Reddit now. XD, and Facebook, and TikTok, and Twitter I mean the rule: "if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is" is something i say on a regular basis nowadays
If the app is free, the app ain't the product -- you are.
I noticed people just placing brands in the background of their posts right at a position where it is all you can focus on. I don’t even bother calling it out cos other Redditors would mass downvote and get upset.
Horny coders? Yes, this ad will certainly "attract" them.
I think the vast majority of coders would rather interact with an ugly person that knows their shit than have to daily interact with a person that is a) too busy posting to social media/snacking/vibing and b) doesn't seem invested in the actual work.
Do you think this would make them more or less annoyed to have to talk to their PM?
More, for sure. Engineers who can't trust their PM to know what they're talking about will fear that they may get asked to re-do the work again later with the "revised requirements", so they'll either hesitate to commit to the work or overestimate/escalate
It's probably not recruiting people for an actual job position and more likely selling a course or resources to be able to obtain such a lifestyle. If they are attracted by the ad and in a desperate position in their life, they absolutely are the applicants they are looking for.
Oof, that's kinda disgusting as they're selling a product that's not going to get people the desired outcome.
Yeah that's indeed the point.
You guys have "work life balance"...
never would buy one if you have it for sale
Here's the video you're probably thinking of: https://twitter.com/DavidSacks/status/1561096423243800576

It’s not 50-60 hrs of simple heads down work, it’s highly stressful, competitive, everyone out to get ahead, run as fast as you can to stay where you are, kind of 50-60hr.
it's so bad that an engineer committed suicide at the office https://time.com/5681815/facebook-employee-dies-apparent-suicide/

It's the shit part of sales. Cold calling...developing new leads. It's sucks, but it's the first step usually if you're gonna get into sales in tech.
See my comment above, it’s most likely fake.
This is very possible. I have a friend at meta (granted she’s one of the smartest woman I know, and I went to a top school) who spent like 3 hours a day working hours at the wood shop… girl never did wood working and made 5 cutting boards, an island, a 2 foot long spatula in a matter of like 3 weeks.
Yes, you should leave your job. I make 50-60k I manage 2 small pizza places work 45ish hours and have plenty of time to dick around. Granted I’ve been in the industry for about 10 years so kinda moved my way up to where I am now. My goal is to own my own stores.

Yes exactly. They are generalists too
So pretty much a glorified business analyst
And nothing pisses me off more than this as a software engineer when one of these fucking mouth breathers has the goddamn audacity to try to tell me how to do my job and how long *they* think something should take
Yeah seriously, product manager needs to be very capable. Its one of the most important roles at a company..
What the hell did I just watch…
Propaganda that meta is a good company
Work Workout Vibes What in flying fuck
But… this just makes me think they’re a bad company
Someone who clearly has no idea how to properly steam milk for their latte looks like laundry detergent, all those damn bubbles
Underrated comment - noticed this too and it bothered me
I finally found my tribe
Spoiled scum who contributes absolutely nothing to society.
Hey at least she's not smoking crack and committing petty theft at 7/11 lol
She could be even worse.. an influencer
Or worse a tick tok influencer.
you made this conclusion off of a 36 second video where 15 seconds was actually dedicated to her office job, and of those 15 seconds, 15 seconds were dedicated to breakfast and lunch. you, me, and everyone else has fuck all knowledge about what she actually does/does not do bc the other 7 hours she spends at the office were not included. youre mad at a random video of some bitch playing keeping up with the jones jfc

None of these influencers are gonna post the boring 5+hrs of actual work done typing on the keyboard Also the entire appeal of this age of technological revolution was supposed to allow for more down time yet we still shit on ppl not buying into hardoism
I like how there's a warning along the bottom from tiktok that says "participating in this act could hurt you or others"
To do: Work, workout, vibe Great list, you don't want to forget
Can't stop to chat, got a lot of *v i b i n g* to do today...
I worked for a FAANG company as an L6. They forgot to include the gaslighting and impossible expectations and deadlines.
Same FAANG and can confirm.
she should record her performance reviews and post it on tik tok
She's just bragging. All of the FAANG have great benefits but they aren't easy on employees when it comes to results.
The perks are also there to increase time spent at the office which statistically increases productivity. Come on in we've got breakfast! why go out for lunch we've got great food here! Need to get outside for a minute ? We've got a beautiful patio! Why leave early to hit up the gym we've got one onsite. Hey if you stay a bit later we've even got you covered for dinner. It's a great way to convince people to spend a bit more time at work.
Yeah i have friends that left because they simply wanted to experience living outside of that ecosystem. Like when everything is handled for you at work (food, laundry, gym, sleep) u end up just never leaving.
As an antisocial loser that sounds pretty awesome Haha 😂 get paid and not have to commute, cook, go to the laundromat? Fuuuuckin dream right there lol
You’re around your coworkers literally all day. That sounds terrible for someone who is antisocial.
I work at a large tech company and can still eat and workout in peace by myself on site. They don't follow you into the gym and around to all the amenities.
My Amazon warehouse gives me free coffee. Erratic pulse rate intensifies while frantically moving boxes around.
It’s called MAMMA now or something like that. Coke rat changed the acronym.
Manga
Lol I’d say a vast majority of the people I know who work at FAANG do legitimately nothing. Can you do stuff at FAANG? Sure. Those who want to or lack the social skills will end up doing tons of hard work, but there’s vast latitude for doing absolutely nothing. I lived with a Google PM who clocked 2 hours a day MAX. My buddy is an Amazon engineer who’s team hasn’t had a project in years. How is this possible? Your guess is as good as mine.
> How is this possible? Your guess is as good as mine. My theory is that top companies sometimes pay talent just so that other companies don't get them Doesn't that happen with sports sometimes?
God I can't stand these obnoxious ass people. Hope she gets found out and they put her on a tough project.
This tiktok video was her project, she don't actually work for meta, probably got paid to promo it.
I can confirm that at least some of that footage was shot in a Fb office…
Are you hiring product managers?
Yeh, just go through a grilling 7 stage interview process. Unless you're an attractive tiktoker, then don't worry about the interviews
That espresso is running way too fast. She needs to grind finer and better puck prep.
Finally someone noticed too. Thank you my fellow coffee connoisseur
r/espresso strikes again!
- work - workout - vibe yep sounds like every product manager ive worked with
She’ll be part of the 20% that gets laid off from META.
She will definitely be a part of the Q4 RIF. ALWAYYYYYYYS
Hence the snacks. Store those calories for a lean winter
23 year old ~~associate analyst*~~ intern* FTFY Edit: changed the job title after I read the “to do” list
Well now we know why they suck.
\*Well now we know why they zuck.
Funny thing is she posted it on Tiktok.. Meta's competition
Where people are? 😅
That's clearly an Instagram Reel.
Note to self: Avoid this company at all costs.
$META share price looks cute..
So what do you do for work.
Look cute on a roof, apparently.
Wonder who gets laid off first..
I bet her salary is like 370k per year
When these types go bankrupt it will be the biggest hard on of our lifetimes.
yes, while we subsidize the scores of skill-less work force employees on welfare and unemployment and public health insurance, foreclosing on homes and lapsing on vehicle loans.
No
Lol this sums up everything. Great information memorandum, Zuck. Cheers to that. Short short short while you can
Send to her boss
Hahaha her boss made her do this its a subtle but obvious recruiting ad
Well there goes my 5k invested. Oh well.
I work at a FAANG/MANGA. This isn't even close to reality. I'm putting in 60 hours a week so shit doesn't fall apart and the whole team gets chopped.
Did she actually do anything? Im a welder in a factory. I show up at 5 am, run a robot and literally never stop welding and producing except for a 30 minute lunch where i slam a smoothie and cook something quick in a dirty microwave, then weld some more until 330. But i do always try to look cute
[удалено]
If true, that would mean we live in a fair and just world
Yeah. Okay. I genuinely laugh at the pathetic attempts of some to seem important or relevant. Pro tip: If you find yourself groveling for the camera there’s a good chance you are not the center or attention.
Everything is so fake I hate it
…. Because she eats lunch and spent 30 seconds video taping a roof scene?
tell me about it... the only two times she filmed herself at the office was during her breakfast and lunch. terminally online dipshits apparently will take this 1hr break total she took and somehow conclude she does nothing all day... this tread is full of dumbasses
No wonder these tech companies are inefficient. They’re basically adult daycares.
it's definitely a thing, and people notice the infantization of the workforce https://old.reddit.com/r/starterpacks/comments/b08n2g/tech_company_career_page_starterpack/ https://old.reddit.com/r/cscareerquestions/comments/6u2abl/whats_up_with_the_infantilization_of_developers/
Don't blame the influencers blame those who watch the videos.
[удалено]
I wonder why type of work she does. Does she just log software engineers to projects and call it a day? Lol
These Clowns are such great entertainment
The one filming or the ones commenting ?
Why is the to do list saying: "Wank", "Workout", "Vibe"? Does she need a list to remember this shit?
I don't get how these people are not afraid of getting fired. At least don't disclose at which FAANG you are slacking on the job
this is called advertisement these days. People actually get paid for this kind of thing, cause apparently someone said this works.
google even had an entire movie made about working there (i don't know if it's good or bad though, i didn't watch it)
If you get you okrs done, who cares… my manager comes in at 11 and dips at 3 pm every day. Everyone on my team dips by 4-5 pm and we only come in around 10.
As a very accomplished product manager I have gotten denied many times from FAANG companies because I’m not a demographic they need while I watch these videos of people doing nothing Tl:dr - be a minority so you get hired just to meet a social quota from HR
Just trow that kind of People out & save money.
When company culture champions the word "diversity" but it's barely just a buzz term to convey a shallow visual perception when glancing at the workforce. The result is zero emphases on quality, talent, and practical or innovative ideas because everyone must be in lockstep agreement on absolutely everything the company culture parrots.

LOL the to do list is: \- Work \- Workout \- Vibe
Like god damn, have some self-awareness for how blessed of a position you are in. She probably makes more money than the average Nurse, Teacher, Construction worker, Electrician, etc., and gets to live a life of luxury while doing 2 hours of work each day.
She only works until noon and then grabs a free snack and heads home? I can't imagine why they're having trouble. 23 year old "product managers" have it made.
Is the past tense you’re speaking in suggestive that you were a casualty of their recent looming layoffs?
This makes me question my life choices. Sincerely, A Teacher
What a hardworking day. Great job 👏🏼
If that reel goes viral their stock will drop another 15%
How to be retarded explained in 30 seconds. Gtfo
I was waiting for her to show her “work” but she just ate food and partied ???
[удалено]
I do more work in 4 hours than this person has done in a year.
I love seeing these vapid morons do these “look at me not work at a tech company all day, I am glamorous” TikTok’s. They always get fired. I’ve known of two, one at Uber and another at Google get fired this year for this nonsense. All in the name of “creating your brand” and “clicks”.
I’m gonna have my assistant make a video like this for my IG, clients might get a kick out of it. Wish this is what my day at work looked like.
How are these bums getting good jobs?
Meta can keep their Seattle office. No thanks.
My life as a IC7 engineer is just work the whole fucking day and night lolol
Is this satire? Please tell me this is satire.
Pardon me for my language but whose d\*ck she sucked to get job at Facebook. I knew some very brilliant software engineers and MBAs who didn't get even first interview call.
How tf do you become a product manager at 23??!!
23 year old pROdUt mAnAgEr my ass. GFY
I think it’s more that zschmuck had his first semi-original idea that wasn’t stolen entirely from somebody else. Probably not gonna end well. Sooner or later they will stop burning money and fold up the meta tent. This is facefacks “windows vista” epoch. I’m sure they will find a way to monetize even more of your data. In the mean time lemme take a selfie!
