Isn't there still not a lot of information on YouTube's profitability? I don't think it takes $29 billion to run it but if it hypothetically took say $24 billion that is a 20% revenue loss from take a loss in the billions.

Certainly you can refactor your code to avoid performance pitfalls but that is effectively always true for large programs... The reality is the number of similar UB based optimisations has grown considerably and even divesting of them would

There was a talk about UB that proved to me there is no way out of this UB box for C++. Specifically how calculating an int aka signed 32 bit integer index was more performent than calculating a uint aka unsigned 32 bit integer index. Becau

Most tokens are sold on the future of the platform. Basically "if everyone uses this coin it will be more valuable". By introducing a distinct product through which revenue would be gained it seems naively to mean it is now about

Feel free to research this legal topic at all, if you are going to talk that much about it. Including the definition of reasonable person, negligence, as well as the tests involved in a defamation suit.

To be fair audio compression wasn't exactly great in early 2000 and if the CD was required to play you could just not install the audio.

How was your system configured. If you frame capped your FPS at 144 and had a 120 Hz monitor without V-Sync that would be super noticable.

Do you know how defamation laws work in the US? Would you assume a viral video contained accurate descriptions of legal procedures? Heck if he hadn't said convicted it would be protected speech. The US protects "I bet you X beats

Negligence of the truth is the standard. Being wrong is not sufficient for a defamation case. All of these mistakes make the statement wrong and not factual but that isn't enough for a defamation case. My point is if it was a simple mi

Defamation required negligence. They were certainly wrong about the situation and I would agree by quite a bit. My point is misunderstandings don't mean defamation alone.

A restraining order for domestic abuse being referred to as "best the shit out of" sounds like a pretty bog standard simplification to me. After all colloquially how else do you define domestic abuse? Exaggerating for emphasis doe

Defamation of a public figure requires knowing that the statement was false, or reckless negligence of the truth. Defamation of a non-public figure requires negligence of the truth. Assuming the cop can be considered a non-public figure the

The article doesn't seem to reference W-2 employees but instead 1099. Likely due to how much verification is done. This sounds more like gig jobs not so much remote workers.

We are talking about the App Store here, correct? Do you think that for an App Store attached to a phone whether the phone cost $100 or $1,000 matters? Because everyone related to those App Stores does.

This ruling isn't just "this specific case is allowed" it establishes precedent based on the ruling details. I certainly think there is an argument for disallowing but am not trying to argue about that. If you assume it is al

Rulings aren't only about the case. Precedent is important. Loosing rulings here can lead to expanded power and suppression of speech for fear of backlash. Saying "checking for searches of an address in two weeks" is material

I feel like buzzword bingo in conferences is unavoidable. The three easiest ways to get someone's attention in a title are: being a well known speaker, talking about a giant project, or talking about a trend. As much as there is value

Geological evidence goes back a few billion years. The theory of evolution is pretty well documented and similarly human remains only go back so far. Science doesn't say it did. Science said it could. Science assumes it did because it

These kinds of things are not settled by arbitrary judges making off the cuff decisions. They are settled by specialist technical judges with advice of dozens of specialists explaining the tech in detail. Check out Google vs Oracle the laws

My viewpoint on tech debt as someone who does try to do it right is tracking is what is important. It doesn't take more than a couple minutes to throw up a task about an issue you see. That issue then becomes the tech debt. Leadership

Doubtful the courts would allow this shell game. Just because a particular usage is not protected doesn't mean you can do anything with it.

Releasing a bad port as a AAA studio is a bad idea as everyone focuses on the problems. Apple refusing to update graphics drivers outside of major OS updates doesn't help...
