46# Unfortunately, Facebook does not offer a comment stream, in the same
47# way we can get a post stream using the news feed.  This makes it a bit
48# difficult to de-duplicate comments we have already seen.  We use a
49# simple heuristic to fix this: we check if the comment's time is dated
50# from before our last update, and don't re-post if it's dated before.
51# Be somewhat forgiving, since it's better to duplicate a post than to
52# drop one.  Furthermore, we must use Facebook's idea of time, since the
53# server BarnOwl is running on may be desynchronized.  So we need to
54# utilize Facebook's idea of time, not ours.  We do this by looking at
55# all of the timestamps we see while processing an update, and take the
56# latest one and increment it by one second.
57#
58# What properties do we get with this setup?
59#
60#   - We get comment updates only for the latest N posts on a news feed.
61#   Any later ones, you have to use Facebook's usual mechanisms (e.g.
62#   email notifications).
63#
64#   - Processing a poll is relatively expensive, since we have to
65#   iterate over N new posts.  It might be worthwhile polling for new
66#   comments less frequently than polling for new posts.
