Yes, fashionable in that suggesting we live in a deeply unequal society(not true) shows that you're one of the "good guys". Its just a social signal and at this point people have been hearing/saying it for so long that most probably believe people should be judged by the color of their skin, rather than your personality.
Once I saw the title of that video I knew they were all nonsense. What an inhumane thing to say, as if how hard you work has anything to do with what kind of person you are. Is there a certain net worth where you cross a line and no longer have a heart? The problem is not inequality, it's poverty.
Rich people are not rich solely because of how hard they worked. THAT is an inhumane thing to say, as if poverty would vanish tomorrow if only the downtrodden masses put in a little effort.
In first world countries yes, the harder you work the more money you make. Especially true over longer periods of time because of the compounding value of hard work.
That is not really the whole story, though.
My wife and I (self-employed) work around two days a week each and make about as much as other couples where both people work full-time 50+ hour weeks (inc. commute) in professional jobs.
We used to work 3-4 days a week and made about 30% less money.
I'm assuming that you're comfortable incomes come from high skilled work, or at least work that is highly valuable. You may no longer be working as much now to earn the same, but you had to put years of hard work in to get there, most likely.

This is so unbelievably incorrect that I struggle to put words to it.
That is absurd. You could work yourself to death scrubbing dishes and it will never match the returns of inheriting a fortune from your parents. You do not live in a world where wealth is meritocratically distributed.

I know it's just two of the files, but taking into account the rest of the pages for the FB app in 2007, it does not seem like a lot of code. One or two people could have written and maintained a project that size. What were all the new hires doing from 2005-2007?
The company wasn't very large at that time. Probably less than 100 engineers in 2007. One person could understand the bulk of the codebase in a a reasonable amount of time.
There was way more code than you're seeing here though, note all the includes at the top.
Anyone know the laws around scraping news article meta-data(image, headline, publisher, url) directly from a publishers website? As long as I'm not scraping the full article, could I have my users share the scraped meta-data between each other?

It’s interesting to ask the opposite question. How many companies currently are very successful because they shun advertising and protect the users privacy?
