A whole lot of comments here assume that the rating agencies are doing this because they're totally driven by greed. I think what people neglect to mention is understand is that rating agencies are overwhelmed by complex securities par

Kinda surprising that: (a) Nest, the multi-billion dollar company could not build in a secure localized redundancy that comes online when the main service goes down (b) That they are comfortable not updating users AS SOON AS their service i

This looks a lot like HBO's really getting pressured to go for growth, in stark comparison to the classical model of a cable company (which is typically a cash (dividend) cow rather than being a growth engine). I suspect that the whole

Also the talk of GDP growth slowing down is so off-putting. It just goes to show that the author has no understanding of economics. GDP growth tends to slow down as the base increases. The entire article sounded like an adult making the cas

It doesn't. But I guess 'deep integration' sounds like something sexy that every single phone OS should have with an onboard voice AI . This is frighteningly expensive if you get into doing this on your own. So this integr

I've used Cortana and apart from a little minor anthromorphic work to give her a 'personality' (like Siri), I wouldn't say that it's too far ahead of Google Now in terms of features and functionality. Baking Cortana
