Do you have any proof on the claim of the virus being "airborne"?

Where did you get that <1% number? It was low but I think you are 1 order of magnitude off.

I see, I missed the joke I think, reading again, it was quite obvious, sorry about that.

I was just answering to the claim "when just the lidar for a waymo car costs more than the entire tesla vehicle". Which is clearly wrong. The tesla you can afford still does not have self driving capabilities either btw.

According to [1] Waymo produces its own lidars. In 2017 it costed $7500 without being mass produced. Edit: wording. [1] https://www.theverge.com/2017/1/8/14206084/google-waymo-self...

Details of their deal with bing is unknown. It could be that Microsoft is giving it for free or they may have even better terms. There is zero transparency.

You think 54 vs 42 is a small difference in this area?

They probably do a different ranking on the bing index, not directly proxying. If you try non trivial searches, you can see that ddg does not have a different result than bing, only order and representation differs.

Bing is still the main source.

by mda 7y ago
The explanation is fluff and has no meaning if they don't give which percentage of queries is answered by which source. e.g. it is probably all bing for any non trivial query. To me, it seems they just want to create an illusion that i

Except that they won a competition for protein folding by a huge margin as explained. Such claptrap indeed.

Doesn't explain hostile obituary from Ceo.

by mda 7y ago
I didn't see this before, interesting. I remember Gerv from his blog, he indeed had strong opinions regarding religion, but this obituary is completely out of place, it seems as if she had some personal issues with him.

Except it is 80% Google's work.

If author just used a fast hash table (swiss table etc) results would immediately look very different.

There are other things but first thing that comes to mind is tgat Youtube has several orders of magnitude more content than others. Netflix is not a similar service.

Your version lacks depth and I appreciate Linus's response. Imo, he can call something garbage if the mentioned garbage makes false and bold claims about his and contributors decades of work.

Except your attempt is not exactly analogus to the situation discussed.

Well there is a saying "It is easy for a single man to divorce a wife". I am not sure his suggestion is practical also tone is terrible. I hope they can cope with other people who are being "brutally honest" with them be

Woman and Kurdish engineers are plenty in Turkey. It could be better sure. The way you say it makes me think you haven't lived in Turkey lately.

I must admit it is quite fun to watch though, I only played the game never read the book but series left a surprisingly good impression. Hope they will not cut it short.

DDG is not a real search engine, I think this project is way more impressive than DDG.

Bing is the primary source though.

One immediate observation is non English porn filters / safe search do not work properly. I see NSFW results mixed with others for benign words.

The article gives 2 benchmarks, I am pretty sure it is easy to mash up another benchmark with totally opposite results (e.g subset of specint). I found author's inclusion of an obviously skewed example as proof a little bit disingenuou

That is not a proof or data at all.

Do you have any data that Google's services were the actual cause of the slowdown of websites?
