LinkedIn launches (5 🌊 ⤨ ⏳ ↑)

New LinkedIn feature rollouts typically follow the standard 5 waves: ⤨ random, ⏳ timed, and ↑ scaled so that LinkedIn can evaluate, adjust, and sometimes eliminate, and ultimately reduce any negative impact, unpredictable load, or code conflicts that could break the platform.

Historically, a clean deployment took about 30 to 90 days to complete, but over the past few years we’ve had deployments take over a year to complete, some never completed, and the feature was removed.

don’t know why [in] Doesn’t just stop people from adding more than 6 members (from member) filter.

Tony Restell discovered the issue (from members) that was not producing consistent results earlier this month, before it affected my account. I ran into this problem last week so I did some research on the code and then ran some validation tests and what I found [in] What this does is limit the filter functionality to a maximum of 6 members. For 7+ members, the process retains other aspects (Published/Latest/Last 24 hours), but Silently discard or fail ‘fromMember’ aspect so you can see everyone’s posts.

You can still search by posts within the first 24 hours by level or people you follow without any restrictions.
