I know why this is the arc, because this is the midcurve Sorkin take on reality. A much more interesting film would be catching up with the early Facebookers and see what they're doing now: -the lifer VP who doesn't know what else to do in life -the mediocrity working on some flailing vanity startup to prove he was good and not just lucky -the Marin/Hillsborough guy with a rolling fund who 'invests' randomly and mostly just kitesurfs and heliskis while Cybertrucking his kids around to private schools The banality of wealth, the stasis of technocapitalist post-History. Much more interesting than this midwit crusading bullshit (though I guess there are certainly a few examples of this).
First trailer for ‘THE SOCIAL NETWORK’ sequel, starring Jeremy Strong, Jeremy Allen White and Mikey Madison. The film follows an engineer who becomes a whistleblower on Facebook's most guarded secrets. In theaters on October 9.

Coding with AI is like walking into a store where suddenly half the store costs 1¢. There's such an urge to just throw everything cheap into the cart at once but at some point you gotta remember that you had a shopping list when you first came in.
