The more I think about it, the more “Day One” comes across as nonsensical.
I woke up this morning, we had multiple data centers across the globe filled with millions of servers… Day One.
I clocked into the swing shift, we have bins overflowing with unthinkable amounts of returned items, many of which are semi-perishable toiletries and personal hygiene products… Day One.
As a simple-minded catchphrase to orient one’s thinking, it becomes more and more absurd as the company scales. But Jeff don’t care, he punched out a long time ago.
I especially want to be sure that everyone here is aware that the video thumbnail clearly shows that JD Vance was not seated upon, or otherwise interacting with, a couch. JD Vance was calmly seated in a standard office chair for the duration of this interview. Any posts containing out-of-context references to couches will be dealt with vigorously.
Well, he was already practically an SS-Mann without the neck lapels, so why be surprised about this?
Facebook platforms are likely to follow the same trajectory as Fox News, and perhaps Zuckerberg can see that. The main site is obviously full of bullshit and practically useless for its original purpose, and it’s also increasingly abandoned by core demographics because it doesn’t have enough of their preferred flavor of bullshit. I’ve known MAGA guys who make a game out of creating secondary accounts to avoid Facebook jail. That sort of pathological use case is surely driving somebody’s OKR numbers, someplace in the company. After that game stops being fun, some of these people will either decamp for other platforms or (gasp, shock, horror) give up on social media entirely!
Instagram has almost completely subsumed the “my favorite celebrity might reply back to me” appeal that Twitter used to have, although TikTok is also stealing a lot of that. If they lose that shine, Zuckerberg’s in real trouble.
