There is a case to be made that wage spirals are bad, actually.

Yeah, that's one perspective :-) Objectively, the global labor market is the hottest it has been in modern history.

For one thing, "C/C++" is not a thing. If you see C-like C++, that is C. Part of OpenSSL's incomprehensibility is that it is not C++ and therefore lacks automatic memory management. Because it doesn't have built-i

I don't know why you're still using OpenSSL but if you're able to switch I note that BoringSSL was not affected by any of the January 2026 OpenSSL advisories, and was also not affected by any of the advisories from 2025, and

Another "fix" in the long line of OpenSSL "fixes" that includes no changes to tests and therefore can't really be said to fix anything. Professional standards of software development are simply absent in the project

Your comment is longer nonsense. Individual data points in a population cannot be biased. Bias is an aggregate statistic of the sample population.

"Biased but across the spectrum" is nonsense.

How many large tech companies has the author worked for? I don't see how general lessons can be drawn from the stuff on their LinkedIn.

I had a camera stolen on a Zürich streetcar and when I reported it to the police they acted like it was the first crime that had ever been reported in the canton, a very serious matter indeed.

I guess. That's not immediately clear to me. However, browsing around on Google Books suggests to me that it is the corpus which changed, not the algorithms.

It isn't obvious why the left results are preferred over the right results.

Imagine claiming that video has not historically been a medium of investigative journalism.

Sending bulk data by reference is a common pattern. Even inside Google when I was there bulk data was sometimes placed on ephemeral storage and sent by reference, and 100MB was considered a "dangerously large" protobuf that would

You are being dismissive, though. There is no "original knowledge" anywhere. If the videos are the best presentation of the information, best suited to convey the topic to the audience, then that is valuable. Humans learn better f

The vast majority of journal articles are not available freely to the public. A second problem is that the business of scientific journals has destroyed itself by massive proliferation of lower quality journals with misleading names, slapda

That's interesting ... why would you want to wall off and ignore what is undoubtedly one of the largest repositories of knowledge (and trivia and ignorance, but also knowledge) ever assembled? The idea that a person can read and unders

Even this article mentions how ridiculous this article is. Google's gigantic data center uses a third of the water in the Dalles, a miniscule community of only 17000 people. So they are using the water of 5000 homes, i.e. nothing.

The assumption appears to be that the linked videos are less informative than "netdoktor" but that point is left unproven.

Yeah, the fact that Democratic state and local governments have tolerated the decades-long slide of sheriffs and prison guards and in some cases even the local police into white nationalist gangs will be looked upon as a strategic mistake.

Everybody gets way more spam than they realize because Google doesn't deliver it to the spam label. 99% of it is rejected at SMTP time.

They believe that an urban area containing significant immigrant communities but surrounded on all sides by ultra-right-wing exurban and rural people, 99% of whom are white, will be easy to subjugate.

ICE thugs have been recruited largely from white nationalist rallies and forums. Literally, not as some kind of metaphor. DHS executives post white nationalist propaganda hourly on Twitter. Stephen Miller, an out-of-the-closet Nazi, is the

There's your confirmation, then. It must be either a localized failure to some subgroup of users, or triggered by some combination of settings, if some people are seeing it and others are not. Added: https://www.google.com&#

The weights in their filters are crowd-sourced, so the best thing you can do is mark them as not suspicious (if you are certain, of course). FWIW, I am not seeing this. My Spam label contains just spam. Finally, it would be good to know wha

My experience with that brand specifically is they should call it "lane oscillating".

Serializing a protobuf can be significantly faster than memcpy, depending. If you have a giant vector of small numbers represented with wide types (4-8 bytes in the machine) then the cost of copying them as variable-length symbols can be
