This is not just another story of a disgruntled ex-employee. I'm not shying away from the serious corporate espionage or the ethical dilemmas I faced during my brief tenure at Meta.
I'm not proud of everything I did. I used to think of myself as an idealistic tech enthusiast, but Meta has a way of making the worst come out of people.
Considering they fired me for telling some truths, I figure I owe the internet the full story.
Besides, their legal team can't touch me — I checked with my lawyer and my compiler. My logic is sound. More on that later.

Chad's face turned as red as a 500-error page from the 90s, back when "red" was actually #ff0000 and not some Pantone® bullshit. He stammered, "I… look, no one knows Prolog, right? What were the chances I'd be asked to write it?"

1) Meta AI doesn't do code via the smart glasses, and its models in general don't care if you ask it to help with programming. Theres no "morality filter" for code.
2) Meta loops for engineers are 8 people. one person can't approve a hire, and def can't set their pay.
3) if he was only working there a week he'd still be in onboarding.
