Making Facebook Graph Photos Api Work with url

As per the documentation on Facebook https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/reference/v2.2/user/photos/

For /photos api if we want to post a photo to user timeline, using an url on open internet then we must:

POST /v2.2/me/photos HTTP/1.1
Host: graph.facebook.com

source=%7Bimage-data%7D


But this gives:

{
  "error": {
    "message": "An unknown error has occurred.",
    "type": "OAuthException",
    "code": 1
  }
}

We should avoid adding {} or encode %7B and %7D around image-url for this to work. So correct would be:


POST /v2.2/me/photos HTTP/1.1
Host: graph.facebook.com

source=image-data

Did Snapchat CEO's comment on India being a poor country?

I would like to get the facts straight over here before we get more offended reading the headlines of all the major Indian bulletins. Lets breakdown this incident: This is an allegation. There are no evidence yet to prove this yet. The allegation is made by an employee of Snapchat, Anthony Pompliano, who is currently engaged in lawsuit against Snapchat, accusing the company of misleading the investors by providing inflated statistics about user data.

Why India Hasn’t Built Its GPT Moment (Yet)

India has the world’s third-largest startup ecosystem, a thriving developer base, and a mobile-first population larger than the US and Europe combined. Yet, no GPT-4. No DeepMind. No Amazon-style platform. Why? Innovation Isn’t Accidental—It’s Engineered The Zerodha Daily Brief recently asked why India hasn’t built a global product company like Apple. The key argument: India isn’t building for the world. It’s solving for local constraints, scale, and affordability—but global scale requires deep IP, design, and tech differentiation. It’s not just about software, it’s about systems thinking. More importantly, it answers the question: Why do countries innovate? The answer isn’t just genius or ambition—it’s incentives and ecosystems. The U.S. Defense Department, for example, accounted for nearly 70% of federal R&D funding during the Cold War. China has pumped billions into semiconductors and AI with long-term national alignment. These aren’t short-term bets—they are strategic, delibe...
