Twitter (re)Releases Recommendation Algorithm on GitHub

  For example, from the commit deleting the author_is_elon feature, I don't see a deletion of any config files. It may very well have been the case that the author_is_elon feature was never used for serving production traffic, being ignored by a config value. Maybe they need predicates like this in order to capture metrics. So if someone asks "are we showing more tweets from Democrats than Republicans?" they might need to define author_is_democrat and author_is_republican predicates to measure whether there is a discrepancy, controlling for various other factors. The mere existence of those features does not indicate anything nefarious.

  I'm kind of surprised at how small https://github.com/twitter/the-algorithm-ml/blob/main/projects/home/recap/config/local_prod.yaml is. I would have expected tens of thousands of lines of config, but as you point out, some of that is spread out across different files.

  Don't really see how "enterprise scala" has anything to do with this, scala is meant to be parallelized , that's like it's whole thing with akka / actors / twitter's finagle (https://twitter.github.io/finagle/)
