I know the hate for Facebook is strong here, but I was just approached to work on their eCrimes team... Catching online predators and the like... I'm honestly considering it, given how much evidence is posted. But it requires so much more programming knowledge than I have... I don't know where to start...

    I hate facebook but a job is a job. I don't get how come you have to learn more programing though, sounds like the hardest part would be tracking ips and getting court orders for vpns. Well unless they are trying to automate it

    Sounds neat, I'd take the opportunity.

    Of course you may not be as interested as me. I just have an elevated hatred for pedophilia.

    I don’t hate Facebook I just don’t have much interest in the content anymore.

    But a FB job, how could you say no?

    @PerfectAsshole I'd personally say no without hestitation but if you like it (@QueenMorgana) then I'm not to judge you.

    Join them and make the web safer! There's no better place than from the inside.

    You can get up to speed while on the job 😉

    I interviewed with them a year or so ago, but I wound up declining further discussion because I would have had to move to the Bay Area. No thank you.

    If the location works for you though, go for it!

    @heyheni Second that.

    Be VERY sure you are prepared to cry yourself to sleep on a semi-regular basis before you take a job like that, or it will destroy you!

    @AlgoRythm my goal is to work forensics on as large as scale as possible to through as many (properly convicted) pedos in jail as possible...

    @bahua I live within commuting distance from there. But there's a chance I'm moving to Germany within the next few years, so there's that, too...

    @Alice Mein Freund ist in der Armee und ich könnte mit ihm ziehen, je nachdem, was seine Befehle sind.

    It's been a while since I've used my German, sorry if it's painfully stiff and awkward...

    @AlexDeLarge FOR SURE! I'm excited. I loved visiting in high school.

    @AlexDeLarge I was in Germany for a bit over summer when I was 16. Was amazing!

    If I'm remembering German school structure, I went to Gymnasium, not Hoch Schule

    @AlexDeLarge I learned it in high school. Haven't used it since 2009, though, when I graduated.

    @AlexDeLarge I would love to practice my German, if you don't mind helping me... I know it'll come back quickly, I just need to use it...

    @AlexDeLarge would you mind using another form of communication so we don't bombard everyone's notifications with my (likely) terrible German?

    @QueenMorgana your german is as good as mine or even better. But currently Im focussing on learning Kölns dialect

    Öchers platt is impossible for me to understand even though germans say its the closest dialect to dutch. And Im a dutch native speaker.
