> Building a software system is a lot like building a skyscraper: The product everyone sees is the top, but the part that keeps it from falling over is the foundation buried in the dirt and the scaffolding hidden from sight. They should have just called it an ivory tower, as that's what they're building whenever they're not busy destroying democracy with OS Backdoor lobbyism or Cambridge Analytica shenanigans. Edit: If every thread about any of Elon Musk's companies can contain at least 10 comments talking about Elon's purported crimes against humanity, threads about Zuckerberg's companies can contain at least 1 comment. Without reminders like this, stories like last week's might as well remain non-consequential. | ||
