It's not that they only consulted them, it's that they included them. That seems entirely reasonable - these people are going to be entering the workforce. Google wants to be attractive to them, or at the very least prevent bein

IANAL. The lack of forking isn't the issue here. When someone writes code they (or their company) owns the copyright to it. They then contribute the code to the project using the terms of the project's license. Eg, for GPL, it

It seems reasonable to argue the exact opposite: (edit: for clarification, I think this argument is roughly equal in strength to the parent. My bias is definitely showing, but my main point is that knowing which will be true is hard.) Go

It's not anti-labor per se. It's that working for a company which has that goal, vision, and track record SpaceX does is part of the compensation package.

It's definitely a strong recruiting tool. SpaceX is known to work you harder for less money than other firms, but they can get people who are invested in the vision of the company. Also at this point there's been enough time for

I read this post far more as "JS/TS are overhyped" than "Java is Underhyped". Javascript is a mediocre at best language which has been thrusted into the limelight by the fact that it's the language of webpages

I wonder if the Apple Silicon decision is going to have a large impact on what CPUs are used in the datacenter? I (and I suspect many others) would just default to x86_64, because that's what I develop on and compile to. I suspect ma

Car usage is obviously directly tied to road usage. High road usage leads to congestion. In a sense, you want there to be a limit of the number of cars on the road: Just under what would start causing significant slowdown. The fixed costs

I think you're highlighting the difference in approach instead of pointing out a fatal flaw in Waymo's strategy. Tesla is focusing on data because they believe they can machine learn through the problem. Waymo has a lot of data, b

It really depends on what you mean by "full self driving". Eg, I wouldn't consider the stuff Tesla is doing as self driving at all. I have significant worry because to reduces attention while still requiring it for safety. I

This unintentionally taught me something cool: Placing the Ever Given on my street gave a surprisingly intuitive sense of scale. This seems way better than I could get from numbers. Perhaps there's significant value in using a map ov

To make my point more clear: It's not condescension that they're unable to find a second backhoe. I 100% believe that the people solving this problem are doing a way better job than my armchair analysis can provide. What I'm

The Ever Given being stuck is both easy to understand what's going on, and why it's important; However it's hard to understand why it wasn't easily fixed. This seems to be a good recipe for a viral news story. The Suez

Go was announced in 2009, and went 1.0 in 2012. Sure, it's "newer" than languages from the 90s, but calling it "new" when it's nearly a decade old doesn't pass the smell test. Serious software has been wri

I think Alexa and Siri are two examples of poor software ethics in practice. Ethics are more than just "don't kill or enslave people", but thinking about "if we make this choice, what consequences will it have, and will

The Falcon landed on land before it landed on a barge. Obviously landing on a moving/swaying barge is harder, however they had to start with water landings because they hadn't proved they could aim at their target. Once they cra

Likely the most valuable parts are any engines that were mounted. (Have they mounted the engines?) My guess is that if they have a current surplus of engines, they'll try a fix and attempt to get data out of sn9, even if success chan
