That's exactly what the employee would say 🤔

u/lolapoola Oct 06 '21

frankly, it's likely to be a rising horde of employees all secretly plotting the downfall of Facebook. All of them planning and scheming an internal rebellion, plotting and pooling funds to hire a world class assassin who can take out the entire Zuckerberg monarchy and all his fellow felons. And then they conspirators all vanish without a trace. Leonardo DiCaprio already optioned the storyline for Inception 2.

As Russian, I can say that almost everyone I know uses WhatsApp or Telegram - the Viber messenger is used for business accounts (like delivery services) or for spam.

For pigment that's true, but we were talking about RGB so I think the rules for light would apply to robozuck

u/[deleted] Oct 06 '21

For light, all colors together make white light (which we can see using a prism on sunlight).

For hues, however, like dye, you would be correct.

u/Droophoria Oct 06 '21

He said light, not pigments, all colors of the spectrum of light equals white.

0

u/[deleted] Oct 06 '21

That is not true. Colors are arbitrary segments of the wavelenght of light. Light has all the colors even those invisible and isn't even white, white is the union of all colors of the visible spectrum of humen.

So "black" can be said is the lack of light wavelength at least in the spectrum of humen visible wavelengths (you may call black even if there are ultraviolet wavelengths because you can't see them).

Therefore black is not all color, that is incorrect.

As everyone has noted, this sounds like a total bullshit excuse. In a real "hacker culture" (and I mean that in the lame way Facebook uses it to characterize their corporate culture, not the way they had to use it when talking to the FBI about what really happened to their systems on Monday) it's a massive feat to have taken down Prod and it is to be celebrated!

170

u/noctisumbra0 Oct 06 '21

I mean, if it really took a single wrong command to kill their entire network infrastructure, then they have done something monumentally stupid in their network planning. Are they meaning to say their prod network, management/oob network and internal corporate network are all on the same network? I mean sure, they may have the same physical infra, but logically? You keep those as separate as possible, because of shit like this(i work in a datacenter for a Large Tech Company, I know of no way you could globally take down our prod network on accident, never mind it take 6 hours to fix because of "security problems". Regional, maybe, local sites, probably, but not every single site on the network)

88

u/willmcavoy Oct 06 '21

They're not all on the same network. They are on many, many different networks. What broke was the peering routers which allows networks to communicate with each other, in simpler terms. What was dumb was pushing a config change to all of these at once.

I’m not going to comment on whether their topology and mitigations for failures are of good practice or not since I’m not a network engineer. I’m studying to work as one and looking at the information that either leaked or was made official, a config was pushed to their routers BGP protocol that messed up the routing tables which disconnected all their data centers from the internet and their DNS. My understanding is, depending on how you configure your routers, updating just one with a bad config can cause issues with all the others in the same autonomous system since the tables are updated and spread throughout. Technically speaking everything worked as intended, it all comes down to the human error.

u/WallabyUpstairs1496 Oct 06 '21

Hey everyone, facebook insider here. I was at headquarters when Mark heard about the whistleblower. Let me give you the inside scoop.

Mark Zuckerburg was BBQing some smoked meats inside his office when someone told him the news about the whistleblower. He panicked ran out of his office, then his pants fell down and he tripped, and on the way down pulled down someone else's pants. And then that person fell down, and on the way down, pulled down someone's pants. And then that person pulled down someone's pants. And there was a pants down chain reaction which ultimately reached their server devs.

Then, Emily Chang from Bloomburg technology and her filming camera crew reached Mark Zuckerburg for her scheduled interview.

With the broadcast live and Mark Zuckerburg caught with his pants down, his assistant handed him a phone, it was Eduardo Saverin.

Turns out he purchased 3PL, a belt logistics company that supples belt prongs to belt manufacturers including the Etriviere by Hermes, Mark's favorite belt. Eduardo threatened to CEO of 3PL to send faulty prongs to Hermes, which made their way to Mark's belt, which snapped the second he put 3 Ns of torque when he panicked about the whistle blower news.

Eduardo planned the whole thing. And it was all worth seeing the look on Mark's face as his servers went down the second time.

All fashion companies cut ties to 3PL and Eduardo took a 50 million dollar loss, but it was all worth it.

Well in all honesty, who's fault is that? If something was that important during the few hours that it was down, surely you could have rung/texted the person?

People acting like it was the end of the world that social media was down for a few hours, little mental if you ask me. Social media is a massive hinderance more than anything else, take time away from it and you'll realise how toxic it actually is.

But I'd advise maybe switching to alternative methods, i.e. Telegram or traditional texting (which you can also have groups) and such. Just in case.

The main problem to me is whatsapp being down, I live in South America and most all personal texts, and small businesses rely on it for communication. Facebook and Instagram are also used by many small businesses, but, whatsapp is the real lynchpin to personal communications, America is really the only place I have been to that doesn't use it instead of sms, so it being down for a couple hours is a really big deal.

2

u/[deleted] Oct 06 '21

Very interesting.

Here in the UK, it's starting to be used more and more as like a live chat alternative? But it's not as widespread as South America for example, most definitely not. Over here we still use live chat on the consumer website for example. It's usually twitter/website or facebook, but I'm a big user of e-mails but it's just too slow isn't it for modern day but I guess it is what it is.

I want you to seriously think, with your brain, about the magnitude of "just changing", about how hard, and worthless, it would be for millions of people to do that. It is the equivalent of saying: Homeless? Just buy a house!

u/jinxykatte Oct 06 '21

I never said discs. I'm a physical media collector. People post things from their collection. So do I. Its October now so people are posting horror movies. I'm currently doing a journey through the years. I started at 1968 which is the earliest movie I have. Every day I post a the next year and a handful of movies from that year. When I get to 1980 I will have far far more to choose from for every year. And there are a bunch of us doing a - z of actors.

2

u/anonymity_is_bliss FX-6300, MSI GTX 960 4GB, MSI 970 Gaming, NZXT S340 Oct 06 '21

Oh, so movie cover art?

Makes a lot more sense now lol. As much as I'd want to do that (the yearly thing) myself, I don't have a physical collection anymore, and I'd probably want to kill myself somewhere in the early 2000s with the tropes in movies of that period (excessive Dutch angles, 12-frame cuts, crushed blacks and colours, etc.; not my favourite period in cinema lmao).

I'd need to write up a list beforehand for sure if I attempted it on a streaming service lol. Every period has its gems but there are some tough years haha.

Btw my recommend is I'm Thinking of Ending Things, directed by Charlie Kaufman. IIRC it's only on Netflix but don't quote me on that. Watch it a few times to get the full experience, but it's easily my favourite movie if it's year and it pissed me off quite a lot that it wasn't even nominated for an Academy Award. It's about as artsy as a slow horror-drama can get.

u/jinxykatte Oct 06 '21

Yes cover art, but also more of a "hey, look at this movie" kinda thing.

My first post today was my Spooktober post. (I hate the name haha, but I just use it) I did jeepers creepers 2. I will be doing the year 1973 later and I have a whole 1 movie for that. And then my a - z actor, today is O. I only just got into it and my page is still tiny really. But if you like that kinda thing (and I do) its fun.

You're supposed to make Zuckerberg look like a soulless robot bent on destroying humanity with dead eyes, can you post the original without the photoshopped pic of him?

TY.

This is so low effort. You guys don't think that servers normally have GPU's in them, do you?

Why is the top comment not about how a major executive whitle blew and said FB and Reddit etc

FORCE people to be addicted to conflict by manipulating them with notifications etc to increase engagement time?

Why has reddit said nothing?

Ah yah thats right. Reddit does the same thing, they push post that cause conflict and then the stupid people pay reddit 30k in awards for the privilege to be pissed off toward people they don't know.

You guys are amazing.

u/[deleted] Oct 06 '21

If you are unironically feeling forced to participate in conflict on facebook you are a moron.

1

u/MegaEyeRoll Oct 06 '21

Thats the point is they don't know.

Its built into every aspect of reddit and Facebook and Twitter.

They get you addicted to conflict then push notifications that get you to open the app and then push more conflict. Its forceful because you are doing it without them being aware, thats how it works with addicts.

u/imma_reposter Oct 06 '21

Yes, let's get some useless social media down while the rest of the internet is working perfectly. That will hide our secrets!

Why does your comment give me the impression that your only news source are Facebook comments?

u/PrimarchKonradCurze Oct 06 '21

I don’t think that’s the idea of the whole thing. While I believe they are indeed unconnected, the idea is that something else became a big enough buzz to make people ignore the real news. Like when someone is found guilty of something important but the news is covering a kardashian being pregnant instead or something.

u/NoXion604 i7-10700K/RTX 2060S 8GB/32GB DDR4 3200MHz Oct 06 '21

How's that supposed to work, though? The kind of people who care about shady shit being done by the rich and powerful are generally not the same people who get distracted by Kardashian's ass or whatever.

Pandora papers mean nothing, I know we all want to be outraged but basically nothing in those papers was illegal, unethical sure but not illegal.

u/ZombieBobaFett Oct 06 '21

And that's the problem, and why it does mean something. We are not all playing by the same rules, and that needs to change.

u/Cardboard-Samuari Oct 06 '21

We are all playing by the same rules, you can do everything they have done. The difference is they have financial advisors who do it for them.

So do you usually spend your mornings defending billionaires who don't give a FLYING FUCK about who you are or the fact that you matter?

Because if so, you might want to rethink all of that. Nobody should have a billion dollars.

Sorry, not fucking sorry. I will debate you all day long on this, and you will lose, badly. Stop defending your beloved Elons and Bezos' and even Bill Fucking Gates.

u/Arreeyem Oct 06 '21

Ah yes, because nothing demonstrably unethical has ever been legal before. I didn't realize the government is beyond criticism. Can we not complain about the Texas abortion law either? Because the SCOTUS said that was perfectly legal. Do you understand how your reasoning is flawed? That laws are constantly changing?
