Right, he still has access to his Google account, but he can't use YouTube from that account. In fact, he can't create a new account and login to YouTube from any of his devices. His only access to YouTube at this point seems to b

My son (a curious juvenile) found his own YouTube account banned in a similar manner for disclosing a security issue in Google wifi products. There was no first or second warning (despite what the Terms of Service say). Google would not giv

I'm not the OP but I'll describe a "behind the scenes" situation I dealt with. I inherited a team of seven working on a project. They were led by a very strong personality who led the project based on his principles (he

The stack isn't in the C-standard, but it is often minimally defined in the psABIs (e.g., the ELF ABI on Linux) for the architecture. The psABI is generally trying to balance performance of addressability (on the architecture), with se

"Being too open could so easily backfire." I'm in the market for a new leadership role and I have a very well established leadership model that I've honed over the years to build high performing organizations. I was cons

A promotion is not a reward. A promotion is an offer for a new job with higher expectations and more responsibility. If you struggle to meet the expectations of the current role, lack agreeableness, or are unlikely to be able to do the next

When you get into the realm of enterprise sales you have to find a way to predict a fixed top-end price and it has to fit into their perceived value of your product even if they use less of the service than you or they predict. An enterpris

In the example you brought up, I'd try to meter (and value-price) the output, not on the collection. You have to make sure that your margins on the output of the service covers the cost of passively collecting and storing the data. Per

The 'value metric' can be a seat-based license. It simply means that you price the seat based on the value it brings to the customer, not based on a cost+ (your costs plus a margin) valuation or a competitor- (your competitors pri

This reminds me of a sci-fi novel I read in the nineties. The premise had something to do with actors who took on roles in virtual reality where their bodies are fit with sense-points. They're cast in live-action role-plays with wealth

This "up-and-down chain" should stop pretty quickly at the level where eng mgmt knows loaded costs. It's an eng manager and director's job to compute total-cost-to-execute, and opportunity cost (using loaded-costs for en

Developers are overly optimistic, undervalue their time (they don't know the loaded-cost of their time), and overvalue their solutions (they rarely account for maintenance costs or the long-tail of time to perfect the solution). So dev

Yes this is true. It's a beef flavoring. My father spent the majority of his career in food-processing engineering working in a factory that made McDonald's french fries and confirmed this was the case. They're also par-cooke

Per this document it appears that (frequent) Delta second stage explosions were one of the most significant contributors. By 1981 27% of all tracked debris (of orbital period under 225 minutes) were from Delta second stage explosions. (I&#x

My understanding is that the AGPL is an answer to an older problem and didn't see the cloud coming. It addressed those running web-hosted GPL licensed applications who were side-stepping the viral aspect of the GPL by claiming that the

Joined just to respond as I have some experience in this area. I went from engineer, to engineering manager, to engineering director and had a similar conversation with my boss who is an Exec VP. It's not clear whether he's respon
