I might agree with you if news outlets and others were held to the same standard. That said it would be be interesting to know how that changed the landscape. Right now you have the powerful choosing the narrative and the little guy being c

That is only true if you stay completely neutral according to those provisions. But when you curate/moderate content you are editorializing things and it becomes murky. Overall I agree with the original spirit of Safe Harbor. IE: the

There is a lot of talk in Washington about regulation of these industries for this very reason. TV and Newspapers are responsible for their content and as such can say who they do and do not put in their publications. The internet companie

Interesting. If you look at the Operating income with fines they are actually down from last year. If you look at it without fines it's 14% growth... Given the increased scrutiny and the regulatory headwinds I think the with fines is

Beyond the ludicrous nature of the authors sttatement, a look at his Linkedin shows that he is a non-technical CTO. IE: A CTO who has has never really worked as an engineer for an extended period of time and din't come from that backgr

Given the people they gave speaker slots to this year I don't think you are missing a lot. This conference has become blatantly political, vs focusing on tech, the later of which I'm assuming is why are you wanting to attend.

Having seen the inner workings of GE this is not surprising.

It depends on the project. The biggest thing is to assess where the team is at. I just left a project where the team had serious issues and the leadership did not have the desire to fix it...IE: a tech lead that was more of a mid level dev

Bad/inexperienced managers/team leads can make a great job a miserable experience. I usually leave those positions for better jobs vs trying to train someone who is supposed to be my "superior". The not giving talks at c

Without profitability they cannot survive. The industry as a whole is in decline. People are not as willing to pay for content and ad revenue is not as profitable. But, more importantly, ad revenue also makes what little content is left mor

Just like in the US swamp called Washington DC. An interesting factoid... at this years CPAC (Conservative Political Action Conference) in DC Google was very present. In the program you had things like Google appearing right next the NRA as

I'll say this again. Currently I have Google home hooked up to my home automation system. It has trouble correctly identifying commands for things like turning on my desk light and understanding South African accents when friend visit

Right now I have the assistant hooked up to my home automation and it has trouble getting that right... this conversational agent is more marketing and less actual substance. The truth is that Google makes most of it's revenue from sea

This, Android things, for example, is only offering guaranteed updates for 3 years which is not nearly enough support time... and people usually Volvos for 15-20+ years... Even Microsoft understands this better.

Lots of great conversation here. With the private game farms, some more context for people who are not familiar with them. They are generally facilities with 100's of acres of land and high fences around the perimeters to keep the anim
