Tao: Facebook’s distributed data store for the social graph
I'm surprised that they published the more recent paper discussed in part 2 [0] since, IIRC, TAO has supported atomic transactions since at least when I was there a few years ago, but better late than never I suppose. I wonder if that means there's still hope that someone at the company will write a blog post about frameworks like:<p><pre><code>  - EntSchema/EntPattern
  - EntQL
  - EntAction
  - PrivacyPolicy
  - Ent Deletion framework
  - Ent consistency checkers/fixers (I forget the name of the framework/tool)
</code></pre>
It's sad to think that people's only glimpse into these tools is through <a href="https://entgo.io" rel="nofollow">https://entgo.io</a> which is a really crude approximation of the real thing due to Go's lack of generics and expressiveness. Imagine if such amazing tools could be used at actually ethical companies.<p>[0] <a href="https://www.micahlerner.com/2021/10/23/ramp-tao-layering-atomic-transactions-on-facebooks-online-tao-data-store.html" rel="nofollow">https://www.micahlerner.com/2021/10/23/ramp-tao-layering-ato...</a>
