GDPR is there it wasn't as difficult as everyone said. I am, honestly pissed of by the hysteria by know. Sorry that we Europeans have laws that need to be followed even by white collars...

And breeding, I wouldn't be surprised to see that a normal chicken egg is 3 times more heavy today, compared to the 17th century. Are we really still talking about the same product?

Only hiring people who send a thank you email is totally weird. "It shows resourcefulness, too, because the candidate often has to hunt down an email address the interviewer never gave them." To be honest my time is pretty much to

"And at the very bottom there is a base piece of theorem-proving software that is only a few hundred lines of code that has been validated only by humans and self tests." Is it possible for that part of the system, to proof it

"Aniview denies any involvement and instead says the platform and banner ads and code, which were created by one of its subsidiaries, were exploited by a malicious, unnamed third party." The Bucket has to stop somewhere...

This is interesting, i first thought I can use all 4 arrow keys, so i tried to make random movements with 4 keys. The program only guessed 49% of my inputs right over 100 Iterations. When I understood it's only two keys the program gue

also google didn't have any big leaks, while facebook is running from one scandal into the next. Obviously facebook cannot be trusted with user data.

The author suggests to add mutations to the code, like replacing '<' with '<=' in order to "test the tests". He assumes that tests should fail due to such small differences. I think this might apply when

Being a citizen awards you with rights and responsibilities. Whether we think that implementing backdoors is morally right, that does not mean that Australian citizens do not have responsibilities to their country. And neither does it mean

If a company creates damages exceeding billions of dollars, it's quite obvious that they should receive penalty worth billions of dollars. That's basic proportionality.

The last fine google got was 10% of their income, last year. This year they aren't playing by the rules again. What is the EU supposed to do? Give another 10% fine that will be ignored? Also the fine is not 40% of googles income. The c

Yes, the only thing the country can do only block the companies domain in that case. For example in Turkey betting is illegal, turkey will block any bet providers page. But some providers just change their domain regularly.

Let's say you have one profit bringing business unit like google ads. (Let's call it main unit) but you also have internal startups in your company (side units). But you only have one operations department, only one HR department

Google's profits are a bit weird right now, thanks to the new us tax law. (I wrote more about that at the end) Their 2016 profit was $19.4 billion and without the one-time foreign asset charge it would have been $22,4 billion, as such

Obviously not, in every software house there are some people who commit horrible code. If you are as big as MS some of it will pass through review.
