Facebook's Broken Code is a behind-the-scenes look at its strategic failures to address its role in the spread of disinformation, political fracturing, and even genocide. The book, filled with eye-popping statistics and anecdotes from insiders, explores Facebook's manipulation tactics and the distorted way we connect online. The book highlights the company's failures to control or understand its own platforms, leading employees to discover deeper issues such as peddling anger, human trafficking, enabling drug cartels and authoritarians, and distorting behavior in ways no one understood. Despite personal trauma and professional setbacks, employees identified the root causes of Facebook's viral harms and drew up concrete plans to address them. The book highlights that the problems spawned by social media cannot be resolved by strapping on a headset.

    THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA AND CURIOUS FACTS COLLECTION 
      
    CREATED BY TRIVIA HUB 
      
    Casablanca, a 1942 American romantic drama, directed by Michael Curtiz, stars Humphrey Bogart, Ingrid Bergman, and Paul Henreid. It's set during World War II, in Casablanca, where an American expatriate must choose between his love for a woman and helping her husband, a Czech resistance leader. The screenplay is based on an unproduced play called Everybody Comes to Rick's. The film's themes include love, sacrifice, and moral dilemmas. The movie is known for its memorable lines, iconic characters, and pervasive theme song, "As Time Goes By". It won three Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Director. It is often ranked among the greatest films in history. 
      
    CURIOUS FACT SAMPLES: 
      
    The screenplay for Casablanca was based on an unproduced play called Everybody Comes to Rick's, and the film rights were purchased for $20,000, the most anyone in Hollywood had ever paid for an unproduced play at that time. The project was then renamed Casablanca, apparently in imitation of the 1938 hit Algiers. 
      
    Despite being an A-list film with established stars, no one involved with Casablanca's production expected it to be anything special among the many pictures produced by Hollywood yearly. It was rushed into release to capitalize on publicity from the Allied invasion of North Africa. 
      
    The film's cast was notably international, with only three of the credited actors being born in the United States: Humphrey Bogart, Dooley Wilson, and Joy Page. Many of the actors were European exiles and refugees, who brought a sense of "understanding and desperation" to their roles.

    ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
    “Behave” by Robert M. Sapolsky explores the complex biological, psychological, and environmental factors that shape human behavior. Through an interdisciplinary approach, Sapolsky examines how our actions, from aggression to altruism, are influenced by our brains, genes, hormones, and social contexts. He delves into topics such as the evolution of human behavior, the role of childhood experiences, and the impact of culture. By combining neuroscience with social science, Sapolsky presents a nuanced understanding of why humans behave the way they do, highlighting the interplay between nature, nurture, and individual choice without offering easy answers.

    ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
    "Strange the Dreamer" by Laini Taylor tells the story of Lazlo Strange, a librarian fascinated by the lost city of Weep. His romantic view of Weep, fueled by stories and dreams, clashes with the harsh realities of the present. He embarks on a journey there and finds a conflict between the humans of Weep and the godspawn, born from a history of trauma. The book explores themes of the power of stories, the impact of the past on the present, and the importance of empathy. It challenges the notion of good versus evil and suggests that understanding different perspectives is key to overcoming conflict. The narrative leaves the reader with a sense of anticipation, as the characters' journey is far from over and there is more to uncover.
