Nobody sees Google's numbers except Google... in other words, the numbers are not a sales tool for Google like they are for anti-virus/blocking companies. So, there's no reason for Google to pump up their numbers, it would ju

Legally, you're absolutely right. But as camera technology, data transmission, data storage, and automated data analysis progress, maybe it's also reasonable that privacy laws progress with the technology. I expect any police offi

Maybe it's one of those situations where it takes a good guy using surveillance to take down a bad guy using surveillance?

I assume he's planning to build a super mansion once he gets enough acreage. Reminds me of a guy near me who bought three already massive adjacent properties. Tore down two of them. One become a pond. The other one was rebuilt into a m

There are some inference chips that are fundamentally different from GPUs. For example, one of the guys who designed Google's original TPU left and started a company (with some other engineers) called groq ai (not to be confused with g

That was my thought too, and then I wondered if the workers are $100k more expensive to bring here then maybe the jobs are just going to go to the same people, but in their home country.

Fair enough, I misunderstood what he meant by "deprecate JS runtimes".

I agree with the first part, but getting rid of JS entirely means that if you want to augment some HTML with one line of javascript you have to build a WASM binary to do it? I see good use cases for building entirely in html/JS and als

Exactly. Amazon might approve my returns (or not cancel my account) because I buy more than someone else, but they don't share my purchase/return ratio with any third parties.

Agreed. We call those people assholes. We try our best to avoid hiring those people and we weed them out of our company as fast as possible if they're discovered. We also try to have as flat a structure as possible so nobody is taking

I was going to ask the same thing and I hope they answer. I can't speak for OP but I can report on what I'm seeing... I know a lot of British, Canadian, and Australian expats that have moved to California in the past 5-15 years. W

I think it's similar to Tesla entering the automotive world. The existing automakers had some moats, but they also had a lot of legacy responsibilities and liabilities that Tesla did not have (existing warranties, lawsuits, recalls, pa

> I think people might pay for micro-transactions, but a lot of news has no real value. Ya, I'd pay $0.25 or $0.50 on a whim for any random article. For good articles I'd pay more, but the problem is that you don't know if

... and I'm going to speculate that a relatively simple explanation for this difference is that men hold more manual labor jobs than women and those jobs are going to be transformed less by AI than office jobs.

Absolutely. Some of my family owns a construction company and the career path for all employees in that company is basically to work your body while you're young and then move into management/estimating jobs before you do too much

Not to mention... why don't they want to bring him back? It took awhile for them to come out with a reason so is that the real reason, or is that an excuse because he's no longer alive? Very scary either way.

The other important part of this policy is that it normalizes kids not paying for lunch. This is important because they realized many kids who couldn't afford lunch were still skipping their free lunch because they were embarrassed to

We use a much short heartbeat interval because our use case is for real time control and monitoring so our users need to know immediately if the connection is lost.

We've had a production app with them for over 10 years and it's generally great. The only thing to be aware of is this Chrome bug: https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/362210027?pli=1 You can add a recurrin

I agree with a lot of that. But, it's a lot easier to get someone to try your web app than install a native app. It's also easier to get the IT department to allow an enterprise web app than install a native app. Web apps do have

Agreed. Some people saw it as quality of life, some people saw it as prosperity, etc. However you want to define it, the point is the same... many people were shocked that the Chinese middle class had more than they did.

Purists will probably disagree, but my favorite version of Tetris is the version for Oculus VR. Forget the 3D/VR part of it, which is fine but not what I like about it... the way it mixes music, colors, scenery, and pace to create an e

Pix sounds great for most people and probably a good replacement for government issued paper notes and metal coins. But, the crypto purists like crypto that is not controlled by the government or the banks. Pix would obviously fail at attra
