I was responding to this, specifically: "The laws in SF are as renter friendly as you can get in this country. I'm not sure what all the fuss is about." If those tenant friendly laws are de facto easy to work around -…
I'm a Googler living in SF, and my landlord recently tried to drive me out of my apartment, so I think I have an informed perspective on this. It's not as simple as you make it out to be. The laws being renter friendly…
Context is everything here. There may be a number of companies that fit the pattern, and she could be speaking hypothetically, but Rachel worked at Google and has an axe to grind.
He's joking. From the front page of warscapes.com: "What does the NSA make of James Joyce? The author finds out the hard way in his imagined brush with US intelligence over the PRISM data-mining program..."
That wouldn't solve or even sidestep any political issues. You've still got problems like: * ip geocoding to decide which language to serve the UI in * what do you call the languages? Chinese vs Traditional vs…
That's a very loose definition of ads. Advertising typically implies that it's the restaurant promoting itself.
If the device is rooted can't the malicious app also get the encryption key?
One of my coworkers had an off by one error when booking a return flight and overstayed his visa by a day (not in Singapore). So yes, it happens by accident. The idea that he should be caned as a result is ludicrous.
It's a good idea, but it needs to be fleshed out more for internationalization. Even for the given case, English, what exactly constitutes a word?
I wish this point was raised more in the fawning articles about how great a place Google is to work, and how generous the 10% raise was, e.g. http://www.slate.com/articles/technology/technology/2013/01/...
Appalling is that you would equate negative marketing with threatening a patent lawsuit extortion to force a probably illegal agreement to fix wages.
There are lots of data sources other than Street View, satellite and aerial imagery being big ones obviously, but also user provided data, Business Photos, phone calls, etc. The Yellow Pages attribution you see doesn't…
Maybe that typical system has a gender bias then :) Perhaps if women are implicitly required to negotiate, and choose not to, then they will be recruited by another organization who is willing to pay them more without…
The Android tablet market was pretty anemic before Amazon effectively created it by aggressively pushing the Fire, and then Google the Nexus tablets. How would that market have been better for anyone in the long run if…
I used a functional-reactive-language-that-compiles-to-javascript for a web app, in a project that lasted about 3 years. It solved callback hell, and solved some UI problems, but created some hard UI problems as well.…
I assume you're referencing stevey's rant, and if so you're conflating two issues. Steve was talking about the use of APIs between services at the application level, not the API for the datacenter/cloud as a platform.

What reason would Google have to object anyway? Bigtable isn't open source so there's no benefit in shutting down work on Accumulo - the man-hours are not going to go into Bigtable instead.
It's significantly different from a patent trial. In this scheme the patent is not granted - and can't meaningfully affect the market - until it has passed some level of technical scrutiny by a (hopefully) neutral third…
That's a different bug. The problem people are seeing today is a redirect to google.com/blank.html which is of course a blank page. Edit: ah I see reports further down that bug mention blank.html
One I caught recently: The difference between the current time and one week from the current time is not always 7 * 86400 seconds. By noticing an automated test that failed 2 weeks out of the year.
Yes but they won't be US taxes, which are the only taxes US immigration law cares about in this context. He's still avoiding US taxes.
That's higher than Google's share of the US search market, according to comScore. http://www.marketwatch.com/story/googles-web-search-market-s...
Why restrict that reasoning to browsers on iOS? You could apply the same reasoning to restrict OS X to only run Safari. Or only allow iTunes for playing music, since there are standards for encoding audio and organizing…
What are the security implications? A malicious page can attempt to exploit a buggy extension whether it knows the extension is present or not.
