they also did release LLM models, and zstd, and mold, and and and... a lot of stuff


React and Pytorch

compare that to Angular and TensorFlow, such a difference in culture


Easy vs tons-o-boilerplate.


zstd and mold are personal projects regardless of employer. That said, I didn’t know mold was written by a meta guy.


Zstd is a personal project? Surely it's not by accident in the Facebook GitHub organization? And that you need to sign a contract on code.facebook.com before they'll consider merging any contributions? That seems like an odd claim, unless it used to be a personal project and Facebook took it over

(https://github.com/facebook/zstd/blob/dev/CONTRIBUTING.md#co...)


All Google dev’s personal projects are under the Google account on GH for legal reasons. I assume the same for Facebook. I believe fb championed zstd and lets the dev work on it at work but it was a personal project iirc.


Don't forget React. The most popular frontend stack at the moment. Been that way for some time.

And GraphQL, Relay, Stylex...


>React

Ah yes, the <body id="app"></body> websites.


How is that specific to React? And who would use webapp technology for a website?


According to cheema33 React is most "popular frontend stack", but I'm not allowed ask questions of why websites demand JS to display basic content... I suppose my reply could have been more _constructive_ as to ask "by whose count" or "how does popularity correspond to quality" but that's like playing chess by one step in front of you.

Look, I'm seeing an increase of blogs made with an implication that _infinity_ amount of visits requires less resources than one and I don't just find it true.


Yeah, feels more like another reason to hate them for contributing to the enshittification of the web.


> mold

The linker? How is facebook involved in that?
