Pretty much anyone who interviewed before the 2012 never did stupid code tricks like leetcode interviews. Instead, we asked how things actually worked.

The money in social media (and adjacent things, like Google's ad business) is too large. It corrupts the users and also the non-amoral engineers who build those companies. Just look at any thread on the harms of social media for lesson

It's not weird at all to go public before profitability, that was even the standard in tech for the longest time. The IPO was a _fundraising_ event, not a dump-the-company-on-the-public-and-move-on event.

I mean.. -50% would make US competitive with India, and I'd much rather have people in US timezones than the worst timezone imaginable for US-West.

The problem with this logic is that it only sort of works. I know a lot of executives personally and most of them are not high skill at all. Most of them aren't even very bright. I guess you could make the case that their primary skill

Given your username, you might find this interesting: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tempest_(codename) TEMPEST considered almost everything from electromagnetic leakage to exactly the attack described here.

Intel is nowhere in networking. IPU is dead last, they killed Fulcrum and Barefoot was a failure. I would love to see Intel get somewhere but they are dead last among the major players.

Have you seen a lot of non-lazy design in the last decade? It’s one trend after another and a general tendency for the UI to offer the bare minimum in functionality and call it design.

I mean.. tech people are kind of nuts on this. For literally years Google Authenticator had no means to move between phones. Of course people who were told to use it decided never to use OTP apps again after getting screwed. Yubikeys (and g

Because it's too hard. People vastly over-estimate what we can simulate at any level of fidelity with any scale below purpose-built stuff running on supercomputers..

There are many nice things we can’t have because they are exploited by bad actors. There is a nearly infinite amount of evidence that targeted ads go hand-in-hand with abusive, anti-social practices. So I am sorry that you and your innocent

One thing about google proto is that, at least in many languages, every message throws off a ton of garbage that stresses the GC. On the send side, you can obviously re-use objects, but on the receive side no.
