Isn't that the norm for chat apps though? It's not like they're breaking anything... people are just expecting something that doesn't really exist?

Because the US is doing it under the altruistic guise of individual freedom (probably an easier sell than collectivism) and also making small numbers of people large amounts of money.

This is an interesting feature that Google doesn't seem to really talk about — it will also list where you took photos, tell you which businesses you've been to, and even go as far to guess your mode of transportation (in the city

There's no thin veil here, that's how these things started and why they're called space buckets. Indoor gardening w/ grow lights generally isn't economically viable for most readily available varieties of produce.

My office has a kitchen adjacent to a auditorium. No doors. Everyone who gives presentations around lunchtime inevitably has to apologize to the audience for the beeping microwaves and chatty employees. This building is like 3 years old and

First they pushed me to Hangouts from Voice and now they're telling me Voice will be updated more often and I should switch from Hangouts? Also that one time you tried to get me to switch to Allo? Get your shit together Google.

Because you have to get someone all the way to an offer until you know what their salary expectations are. I think it's a good rule, but it is harder for managers. Especially managers who want to find a cheap hire.

It's not very good. Very generic, too developer-centric. They had some interesting (mostly bad) options in their exploration and they ended up with something mediocre. I actually thought some of the best designs were cut the earliest i

Interesting that there isn't anyone at Valve that feels enough ownership to the franchise to push it along. It seems like if you threw a compelling script into a development studio it would be hard NOT to make it happen... there's

It's part of the algorithm, but it's not enough to offset the fact that a bloated site like weather.com gets astronomical amounts of traffic from all sources (direct, paid, organic). It's more like if you had two sites with i

Making money isn't a questionable motivation, it's a biased one. Just like "discount provided for an honest review" on Amazon, stuffing keywords in your URL for affiliate traffic is a very clear bias. It's shouting

The major ongoing conflicts within The Middle East, Africa, and South America are as brutal as they are because of small arms and associated trade... specifically the communism-driven over-abundance of AK-47s
