Hacklang is no longer opensource?
also fredemmott is not working on it any more https://github.com/facebook/hhvm/issues/9376
https://github.com/facebook/hhvm have not been update since 3 weeks ago, it could be a problem with their sync script or the project is no longer open source? If so what would happen for projects depend on it?

Taking Hack Seriously - Slack Engineering
Compared to PHP, with its visible community, Hack/HHVM does seem like a dead-end technology. But it’s very actively maintained and it powers the largest website on the planet. It definitely doesn’t make sense for the average PHP developer to switch (and the article steers clear of evangelising) but it also definitely doesn’t make sense for us to switch back.

Nvidia is now worth more than Meta
Meta has created/maintains ReactJS, Zstandard, IO_Uring, PyTorch, HHVM, is a member of Rust foundation, and that's only the things I know about. They've literally made the Web and Linux better and faster.
- Yes, PHP Is Worth Learning/Using in $Current_year

Ask HN: State of PHP at Facebook
Hack is internally built, but it is also open source:
https://github.com/facebook/hhvm
I joined Facebook in 2019 and left this year.
Though it is internally-built, Hack is already open source at https://github.com/facebook/hhvm/.
FB uses a pretty wide array of languages internally -- I don't know if they release statistics publicly, but you can filter/search their open-source projects by language at https://opensource.fb.com/projects/#filter.
