There is a reason the stripes are BLACK and WHITE. One absorbs the light and the other reflects, which in turn makes a slight difference of air temperature right above the skin surface. The difference of temperatures in certain areas cause (slight) differences in air pressure. This can cause a shallow "wind coat" around the Zebra (and more pronounced when the animal is moving) because of the air pressure deltas all over its skin. This helps Zebra's regulate body temperatures in some very hot climates.

No thanks.

I was pretty sincere though. Just remove the newsfeed. That's the battleground for your attention and by far the most toxic part of the product.

Still is a non answer to me.

FB says they have a problem. FB says the are trying to fix the problem. Still waiting on results.

"Some worry that ads create a misalignment of interests between us and people who use our services. I’m often asked if we have an incentive to increase engagement on Facebook because that creates more advertising real estate, even if it’s not in people’s best interests.

We’re very focused on helping people share and connect more, because the purpose of our service is to help people stay in touch with family, friends and communities. But from a business perspective, it’s important that their time is well spent, or they won’t use our services as much over the long term. Clickbait and other junk may drive engagement in the near term, but it would be foolish for us to show this intentionally, because it’s not what people want."

So are you NOT showing that? Seems like FB has the outrage non-story click baits to drive the short term engagement with the "it's the ONLY place where my friends and family communicate" for long term.

EDIT: He says the automated removal can't catch everything. in the following paragraph.

Great, then remove the newsfeed until it can be AI cleaned to NON society destroying levels. Will definitely remove that short term engagement Zuck says he doesn't care about.

I am assuming the "people" he is referencing are the advertisers, not the users.
