No longer employees.

During a virtual all-hands meeting at the company on Tuesday, according to Verge senior reporter Alex Heath, CEO Mark Zuckerberg rattled off a list of new corporate values that Meta will go by. One of the most important is the catchphrase Meta, Metamates, me, designating the order of importance by which Meta employees should rank their own interests vs. their colleagues and the companys well-being. The Washington Post subsequently confirmed Heaths account of the presentation.

Lmao

Andrew Boz Bosworth, claimed on Twitter the Metamates thing was in fact an original invention of the famous cognitive scientist, physicist, and author Douglas Hofstadter, who an employee cold emailed for ideas. Sure, whatever. Bosworth added it was based on the Navy adage ship, shipmates, self, which is at least partially a reminder of how not to drown to death and doesnt sound at all sexual.

This is funny

I'll bet the announcement came with a powerpoint animation where the word "TEAM-mate" scrambled its letters to become "META-mate"

Sigs are rather pointless, except if it's to showcase animation and images.

Seems like he is mad the Mii verse got shut down a few years ago. He could just be doing a long con trolling as well.

So is this a service people actually want to use or is this Facebook's Stadia? VR is still pretty shit and in its infancy, so I don't get why anyone would want to use it outside of gaming.
