      A large, large proportion of Silicon Valley fueled problems go back to the business model, including trying to do things on the cheap.

      With FB algorithmically pushing "live" to top of every news feed, what did they think was going to happen? This was so so so predictable.

      Sure, car companies could be more profitable if they didn't have to invest in safety or fuel efficiency, and just focus on "engagement."

      We already have who-knows-how-many low-paid workers in third world who watch unimaginably horrible stuff all day. How much can it expand?

      I asked Facebook whether the 3,000 new content-moderation jobs will be employees or contractors. The company declined to comment.

          @zeynep : we agree on a lot of things, but how many staff is "enough staff"? “A Billion Grains of Rice”https://medium.com/@alecmuffett/a-billion-grains-of-rice-91202220e10e …

          A half-a-trillion market cap company can and should do a lot more staff. If you don't have staff, don't launch the service.
