I vaguely recall SO code has unsafe blocks where they need more speed.

I am just under the impression that, when as a website grows, eventually it will reach a critical mass that triggers part of bottle neck to be re-written in multi-threaded C++ for performance if it's not already written in C++.

Right, this was from An Optimization Exercise by Kevin.

Bill Lear
William Powell "Bill" Lear (June 26, 1902 – May 14, 1978) was an American inventor and businessman. He is best known for founding the Lear Jet Corporation, a manufacturer of business jets. He also invented the battery eliminator for the B battery, and developed the 8-track cartridge, an audio tape system. Throughout his career of 46 years, Lear received over 120 patents. == Early life == Lear was born on June 26, 1902 in Hannibal, Missouri to Ruben Marion Lear, a carpenter, and Gertrude Elizabeth Powell Lear. Ruben was a man who had "success in inverse proportion to effort", so Lear's mother left...

Was just reading the latest post on that "Internet of" twitter account. And yep, even if the name is uncouth, that is probably one of the few times you will hear me say that it is a fitting name for some of the brilliant ideas they post about.
Which brings me to the new question. I don't use facebook so I don't have any mean to confirm that claim... Are they really asking random user to send in a picture of their face to verify their account?
 
Shadow Wizard
Shadow Wizard
@Derpy I don't think it's random. Either it's for people who want that blue confirmation mark, or users who get locked out of their account somehow.
And for those who missed it:
a friend sent me this: Facebook is now locking users out of account features, then demanding that those users "verify" their account to get back in by scanning an image of their face. AN IMAGE OF THEIR FACE.
Tweeted by flexlibris on November 28, 2017 at 10:23 PM
The "locking users out" is probably just fake news.
oh wait... meh, it's real. metro.co.uk/2017/11/29/…
Part of fighting bots, so it's welcome. :D
It will cause drastic drop in Facebook new users and mass leaving of existing old time users, so it's a brave move.
 
Derpy

How that will stop bots? They really think they can stop people from using a fake photo?
seems more "please send more data about you" that "we are doing it for security"

@Derpy having bot send a decent fake photo, unique for each bot instance, will require lots of development efforts, so it will reduce the bots usage overall.

> Jeff is also known for calling non-ASCII letters "crazy moon language", but that doesn't mean we've decided to ignore anything unicode-related until the end of time. And this closes a circle, because it gave birth to the name of our localization engine, "Moonspeak". And Moonspeak has pretty sophisticated functionality for handling plurals, including support for languages that have more than two grammatical numbers (e.g. two of a thing and three of a thing use different words).
