Listen to the ATC recording. It is obvious the guy was not an (intentional) threat and was apparently not near populated areas. I actually found the ATC recording to be quite moving and very sad. It's frustrating to read comments here

The problem seems to be limited to the mega-popular content, and it doesn't really seem that different from news website comments. For niche channels that match my interests (10k-1M views per video), the comments are actually generally

I'm not sure if this is the same thing you are suggesting, but what I like to do is use the "Manage people" option from the menu at the top right. My work and home google accounts are never logged in at the same time in the s

I don't think it's bandwidth costs that are the big problem here. People want a competitor that offers what YouTube offers: a way to get paid for uploading videos. I think this service is fundamentally very hard to produce. For al

Those are clearly not the only two options. Waymo appears to be far and away the leader in this space, and they've killed zero people.

I want to know if the car braked automatically, or the driver had to brake to avoid colliding with the barrier. Also, the warning to put hands on the wheel was a joke. It's incredibly subtle and would only be noticed by someone looking

They are not the same. Yes, they all collect a lot of information, but only Facebook allowed much of that information to come into possession of third parties.

From the abstract alone (can't access the full paper), that study seems indistinguishable from a Tesla PR puff piece.

What I thought Facebook and every other data company did: build tools to sell ads based on the data, but not actually share the data itself.

The thing that seems really wrong here is that you weren't just granting access to your own information, but all of your friends as well, who had little say in the matter beyond their original grants of permission to Facebook. It is th

I've always been incredibly suspicious of the way Facebook handled it's user data. Remember back when every website on the internet had a box that showed "random" people that liked their website, and if you had any frien

It wasn't about the $150, it was about not sharing data about the status of their program. I'm not sure which is worse.

Do you have an example? You speak as if this is a very common pattern, but I can't think of any good examples. I can think of some that look like they might fit this pattern if they were to IPO, but that's a big if.

Before saying the old code was just bad, put yourself in the shoes of an AoE1 developer. Google and stack overflow don't exist. If there is a good A* implementation to start from, it's still going to be hard to find. At the time A

Every OpenMP implementation I know of uses a thread pool, and dispatches parallel work to it. This is probably exactly the same behavior as goroutines.
