I happen to have worked on exactly this at Google. No, we don't train on restrictively-licensed code to the best of our abilities.
This reminded me of one of my high school computer science assignments- simply to find all words in a single boggle board. And try to optimize your solution a bit. The point was to teach about recursion/backtracking and…
The evidence presented in the article does not match the claims. The emails they include show that there were meetings between DHS and Twitter and between DHS and Stanford, on the topic of election integrity. And that…
> 3) Don't transparently download and install stuff without user interaction, regardless of where it comes from! This is an interesting one. I totally get your point. But also users are terrible about updating their…
> If you buy youtube premium you'll very likely see more ads for youtube premium Really? I have youtube premium and I can't recall seeing ads for it. Why would they advertise a product to people that already have that…
I'll hedge this by saying I can only speak for the teams I've worked on, plus my somewhat limited understanding of company-wide policies. The answer to both questions is no. If you opt out, your data is not used for…
I'm a Google engineer who interacts a little bit with this kind of stuff. There are a few settings for this kind of thing. You can take a look at https://myaccount.google.com/data-and-personalization The "Ad…
I think each couple has a slightly different balance on what level of collaborative decision making they can expect, and this is actually a big factor in compatibility. For instance, I take your approach for most…
Ah! Thanks for explaining, that makes sense.
I could be wrong (I'm not a finance guy) but this isn't my understanding of how fractional reserve banking works. If Apple deposits $200 billion and the ratio is 1/10, then the bank can loan out $180 billion of that…
1. I am not sure. This is all just my layman's interpretation. I'll admit I could be very wrong and have no expertise. I'm just discussing. 2. No, in general I believe there's a difficult balance to be struck between…
Roughly, we have three types of color-sensitive cone cells in our eyes. They each have different behavior in terms of how much they "react" to different wavelengths of light. Take a look at this chart:…
The tough thing is of course you are right. It's obviously in your best interest to vote against new housing if you own a house. But it's not in society's best interest.
I think some of this might be misinformed. I know Hive can definitely query other datasources like traditional SQL databases, redis, cassandra, hbase, elasticsearch, etc, etc. I thought Impala had some bit of support…
People tend to focus on what has been left out, but think about what they actually did learn about: Drafting from that pool, item and skill builds, last-hitting, creep aggro, laning in general, jungling, item and spell…
"keming" is the only one-word joke I know of. Wondering if anyone is aware of any others.
I worked at one (horrible) place where we explicitly only deployed on Friday afternoon. The logic was we have fewer users over the weekend, so if something goes wrong, fewer people will notice.
Nope, doesn't work at all for me either.
I read the article, thought to myself, "let's see how HN finds a way to say this is actually bad for privacy", clicked through to comments here, and was not disappointed. The hivemind anti-Google kneejerking is quite…
I'm an engineer who has worked on ad systems like this and I'm really struggling to make sense of this article - what hope does a layman have? Here's my understanding: Google runs real-time bidding ad auctions by…
I understood the title slightly differently: the ultimate conclusion was a general pattern of conscientious health behavior is the real predictor. So those that do at least one push-up are likely to be healthy, even…
I'll try to explain why I'm excited: I think you hit it with the "anyone in the world" desire. If I truly want to communicate with anyone I know, I have three options: call, text, or email. No other messaging platform…
If lack of end-to-end encryption is the price to pay to get carriers to implement the features I want - better group messages, read receipts, better quality photo sharing, typing indicators, etc - then sign me up. And…
I think bidding tends to just be about what the advertiser cares most about. If they are a "brand" advertiser (Coca-Cola is the canonical example) they might bid per impression since they're not really looking for…
Advertisers go to an ad network and configure their campaign with: "I want to show X to users who are Y or are on a site about Y, and I'm willing to pay Z for it". X is just the content of the ad and is usually entirely…
