It's still a huge and I mean huge physical achievement to have summited Mt. Everest. Sure, 1000s of people do it every year but it doesn't make it easier for you. Its the same when people decide to do anything that's been don

This is expected. Any manual work will have errors and lots of them. If you want a system to be robust, you have to engineer it in a way it stops working if one of the prerequisites aren't satisfied. It's costly but there's n

Is any copy of data anonymized and still kept around in ml models etc.?

To be fair, companies do say things which they don't do or takes years to do it in the way that was advertised. Asking for a third-party auditor isn't unexpected or unwelcome in most cases. I had a similar concern where I was unsu

Interesting, I don't relate much to either of the statement (not that my experience negates its applicability for other people). On a bit of thought, I find it useful to organize and break down things and maintain lists (the daily&#x2F

FYI, GCP can't be dropped tomorrow because of legal/toc. Even dropping/changing non-beta features requires a looooong notification period (think 1+ year). Enterprise customers really like to secure their bases. Source: Xoogle

I don't see this as Nationalistic flamewar. I am calling out China's bad behavior since China, the government is the acting entity. There's also evidence that this Chinese behavior isn't limited to India. Hence, more the

The funny thing is that Google search engine is already censored in various parts of the world. E.g. 1. Right to be forgotten. 2. DMCA. (differing views on this). 3. Russia (?)

Comments and other forms of p2p interaction are generally added to create a community. People don't come back to a site/store/place if they don't get a sense of community. Comments are also generally very hard to moderat

I mainly follow Dota2 and Hearthstone pros and orgs on twitter and they all seem to provide relevant information. My feed is nice, though checking it a daily/weekly rate is a good use of my time.
