It's not revering a person but a friendship. Anybody reading their code would know what the article is talking about. C++ is not the ideal language to make the hard thing seem easy but they did.

This sort of glosses over that Jobs was pushed out of Apple for good reasons the first time around. His second coming was spectacular but Founder Mode Apple in the 90s would have crashed

I think Google did this to protect their users from snooping. If they have everybody's timeline on their servers, governments can request that information. And governments like to do that: https://transparencyreport.google.c

I'm a big fan of Waymo, but this press release seems to be almost entirely content free. Is there a link somewhere that describes what is actually new in the 6th generation?

To me it always seemed that reading a good, weekly news paper would help. The lack of real time news would make it focus on broader trends and I would not be distracted with the breaking news that is not important. For a while it seemed the

To be fair, it says "has a real shot at" and AlphaGo level. AlphaGo clearly beat humans on Go, so thinking that if you could replicate that, it would have a shot doesn't seem crazy to me
