The Facebook Files īeginning in September 2021, The Wall Street Journal published The Facebook Files: A Wall Street Journal Investigation, a series of news reports "based on a review of internal Facebook documents, including research reports, online employee discussions and drafts of presentations to senior management." The investigation is a multi-part series, with nine reports including an examination of exemptions for high-profile users, impacts on youth, the impacts of its 2018 algorithm changes, weaknesses in the response to human trafficking and drug cartels, vaccine misinformation, and a later article about Haugen, who gathered the documents that supported the investigative reports. In the late summer of 2021, she began meeting with members of the United States Congress, including Senator Richard Blumenthal and Senator Marsha Blackburn. In the spring of 2021, she contacted John Tye, a founder of the nonprofit law firm Whistleblower Aid, for help, and Tye agreed to represent her and to help protect her anonymity. While at Facebook, she decided it was important to become a whistleblower due to what she has since described as a pattern of Facebook prioritizing profit over public safety, and left her position at Facebook in May 2021. Following the 2020 American election Facebook dissolved its civic integrity team, and Haugen became disillusioned. When Facebook recruited her, she expressed interest in a role related to misinformation, and in 2019, she became a product manager in the Facebook civic integrity team. In 2019, Haugen joined Facebook, because someone close to her was radicalized online and she "felt compelled to take an active role in creating a better, less toxic Facebook". In 2015, she began work as a data product manager at Yelp to improve search using image recognition, and after a year, moved to Pinterest. While at Google, she was a technical co-founder of the desktop dating app Secret Agent Cupid, precursor to the mobile app Hinge. During her career at Google, she completed her MBA, which was paid for by Google. At Google, Haugen co-authored a patent for a method of adjusting the ranking of search results.

When the soldiers in Roma Invicta are shot at or even see their comrades dying their morale sinks and panic raises to the point where they drop their weapons and flee from the battlefield. This is historically incorrect and also totally illogical. That's why it's all the more surprising that in most games you fight until last man standing. No soldier wants to die on the battlefield (with a few exceptions). In Roma Invicta too every arrow shot and every shield thrown remains in its place and you can clearly see what has happened there. When a battle was over, the presented scenery drew a picture of its course. It was already the case with the Amiga classic 'North and South' that fallen soldiers stayed on the field and didn't just disappear after a while.Ĭannonball craters have also devastated the area. Such details make me happy and that's why I wanted to implement as much as possible.Īfter a battle the battlefield should also look like a battlefield. This makes the shields unusable for melee combat and the enemies will drop them after a few seconds. ![]() So in Roma Invicta there are no fire-arrows that do more "damage" or similar nonsensical and illogical garbage.Ĭonversely, the Legionnaires' thrown pila get stuck in the enemy's shields.

However, the probabilities are affected by his current stamina. If this doesn't work maybe his armor could save him. If he is shot at or gets hit he has a chance to block or dodge with the shield. At Roma Invicta one is simple.Ī soldier is either alive or not. Was seemingly set in stone by titles like Command&Conquer or Warcraft back in the '90s.įew games dare to deviate from this convention and design a 'real' damage model. The standard for troops to have hitpoints and for those to be indicated by a green bar above their heads However, these can easily be switched on and off.Ī similar concept applies to me at hitpoints. In the case of morale and stamina unfortunately I couldn't prevent this from being displayed via status bars. If a fighter still has his shield in hand he can use it to block attacks - if not, then not. If he has three spears left in his hand he can shoot three more times. That's why Roma Invicta only has them when there's no other option.įor example a ranged fighter's ammo is not indicated by a bar above the head.
