I think you have to split the question into two parts, where one is [literally] computer science and the other is computing technology. There are scads of options in the second pool, but I think the first is what you're aiming for. N

And I don't know what your experience has been, but the majority of the good/excellent lecturers I had in college were actually TAs & low end adjunct or associate professors, not the preeminent tenured research professors.

As a local example that doesn't even apply to multi-family/multi-unit houses, consider the absolutely insane zoning rule in San Mateo county that requires every SFM to have at least 2 covered parking spaces. Seriously, wtf.

FWIW, the Ads org is about 8000 employees (not counting sales), out of 80000 total at Google. Cloud is about 25000 (of which about 4000 are sales and supporting GTM functions). There's MUCH more going on at Google than ads... and that

I think it's stupid to overuse the term "startup" where it doesn't make sense. At what point is something just a new small business? Is there an arbitrary set of lines that differentiate between "startups" an

I work in cloud, and one of the things I look for when recruiting solution architects -- another role where broad is a pre-requisite and some narrow depth is expected -- is systems design skills. Besides whatever you study and learn how to

Some electricity utilities offer this as a sort of service to their customers, where they detect high grid utilization days and notify customers they can save $ by reducing consumption on those days. Here's PG&E's page abou

That's not entirely true (your first point). Both my wife & I have met all sorts of acquaintances and what became good friends through interests that started with coincident physical locality: gyms, clubs, church, children's

Longer school days help parents hold down full time jobs. A longer school year eliminates the need for babysitters or camps in the 10-12wk summer break, and also provides continuity of curriculum. Food is pretty easy and many schools are

MS is extremely flexible with pricing in their EAs. They can make any arbitrary product pretty much free by gladly readjusting prices, discounts and benefits in other parts of the agreement. It wouldn't surprise me if they made the sw

I can't remember the source (or I'd paste a link here), but the current thinking is that, overall, the best way to choose shoes (for safety & performance) is to pick a pair that's comfortable. That might range from Tarah

But you have no idea that you wouldn't be able to continue with your 40hrs and some days remote if you had a job at Google. There are lots of people who have a positive work/life balance at Google. Some take advantage of some pe

Sort of. Google is also well known for having a dozen chat apps. What most people don't know is that there are also likely a dozen different libraries/utilities/interfaces performing near identical services just because an

You may be technically correct, but I'd argue it's generally more useful what we do have: practical experience. When one says "we need better architects", to me that implies that our current architects are creating desi

+1 My wife works 5am-1:30pm so I do the morning routine for our three kids (1, 7, & 9). I work 9am-4pm and am home by 5pm. It's family time -- dinner, sports practice, homework, chores, fun -- until the kids get to bed around 8pm

Disclosure: I work on GCP, opinions are my own. Case studies are a form of advertising -- so what? They're much more effective in qualifying a technology or service provider in a given area than a web page with a feature list. If you

Ditto for me. I had it done in 2006 and have had 20/20 vision ever since. It took about a year before the halos became unnoticeable but I've never had any other issues. My wife, either. It was absolutely life changing for me a

I think that was the point. It has absolutely not been a free market (compared-ish to the US economy) and overall it's worked wonders at the macro level, whether you're looking at QoL, infrastructure, business conditions, educati
