But does that mean Google stops collecting the data? Sure, no notifications, but will they still know what restaurant I just walked past?

What happens when you ignore the hired "help". I'm willing to bet this Levandowski fellow didn't even see her standing in the room. Obviously, this is a tactic that Wong's lawyers (and her) are using to get Levandow

Wait. wait.. if everything is "remote" (on Uber's cloud) then why all this drama of shutting down/locking machines? Just log everyone out and deny login attempts. My other question is, if all the data is in the cloud in

I agree with the article. I think more humans do need to be added to the "decision-making" process. I mean, com'on, promoting 4chan to the top spot in a news channel? Too many people in this country don't bother to check

The TPP was about something other then money and trade. It was about soft power. It was about containing China. It was about influence. By cancelling it, Trump has handed 1/3 of the worlds GDP to China. Because I suspect China will ste

The question isn't "can" but "should". Should we, assuming we could, create conscious (conscious meaning being self-aware and having the ability to learn) machines? There have been hundreds of books, movies, games -

Nahh... that's probably part of it. But in many cases, it's the family insisting that you "drag it out". I remember at NY Hospital, this guy (in the next room) was VERY sick (AIDS) - he was at end of life. Had 105+ fever

You know, what makes you think people have such mobility? It's not easy to just "go find another job". You married, got kids, you can't afford to go find another job. At least not quickly. And quietly. Cause if your mana

It's been stated by many posters in this thread that HR is not your friend; they are not there to protect you, but to protect the company from you; and avoid going to HR with any problem you may have. That's it's better to le

Well ok at least I got it generally right. It was a long time ago. In fact, might be time to reread LOTR and the Silmarillion.

Actually, if I remember right, it was discussed (briefly) giving the ring to Tom. But Gandalf said the ring would eventually consume Tom in the end. I always wondered just how Gandalf knew this. Given that he confessed not really knowing wh

I doubt his popularity was the issue. Time was. Tom is singular. He doesn't appear anywhere else in the story. And he's only mentioned in conversation. Easy to edit him out. And save precious time for the film.

You'd be surprised how much development is centered around IE in the enterprise market. Many users are using IE and don't even know it. And this is one area MS hasn't clarified yet, how long will they support IE. It's go

I love to write code. And it's about 20% of my job. As an engineer, I spend most of my time in design (and meetings). The code is the fun, relaxing part. Many times, I don't even write code; I "review" code. We have &quo

I agree completely. And believe it or not, I went back to Windows. Sort of. I'm testing the waters. My big issue is iTunes. Yeah I drank the kool-aid and now have an iTunes library of about 100GB. Despite how much I hate what iTunes
