It seems like search intent data would be a great source of this kind of information that Google already has. I think this product is more about competing for market power as platform owner in the video streaming business, which is worth hu

Apple has sold tens of millions of Apple TVs. Apple doesn’t break out the revenue in their earnings reports but they have definitely made billions in revenue from the business. With that large install base, Apple has growing power to promot

I wonder if the search/discovery/queue for Google TV will also work with Plex and services like Trakt. Currently on Apple TV I’m just using each service’s app (Netflix, Plex, Amazon) to watch different shows, but one UI that kept

IMO, Apple TV has been one of the strengths of the iOS ecosystem over Android. Chromecast has a lot of good integrations, but the dongle’s lack of a standalone UI with independent controls made it awkward for communal living room use. Looks

On google flights, if you click into the individual flight segments in the search results, it shows the legroom alongside other features like WiFi.

The sentence does appear to illustrate that neither the writer nor anyone who edited the story is close enough to the industry to understand some common terminology. It lowers my confidence in the publication’s analysis on related subjects.

I think the whole reason software is so productive (economically speaking) is that you can leverage software written by others. Depending on your mindset, you could call that “just plumbing”, but a more positive way to describe it is “using

Although most of the variation in comp for engineers is in equity, so a salary band will only do so much for you.

You can find all sorts of interesting stuff in the recycle bin! The garbage bin is much worse, everything is covered in food waste.

Low level purchasers don’t seem to be targeted in these busts. They are after the suppliers. The risk of buying from a darknet market is probably lower than buying from a local dealer, especially for a consumer who doesn’t have any connecti

If the explanation you imply here (COVID deaths are just misclassified deaths that would have happened anyway) were true, then we’d see the overall all-cause death rate holding steady, as COVID-classified deaths replace other deaths and cau

I think different organizations have constraints that lend them to prioritizing different values. Because more of the population supports democrats, especially oft-disenfranchised groups, it’s in the party’s interests to expand the rights o

I’m not sure the incentive is really wrong, although it sucks for the users affected. It’s sort of like how VCs want startups to reach unicorn status or go bust trying. Google doesn’t want to waste engineers running a lifestyle business.

Raise money claiming you’re going to prevent AI from taking over the world, use the money to help develop AI that will take over the world. Roko’s Basilisk approves.

In a conversation, you subconsciously build a model of the mind of person you are talking to, and your words are tuned to fill the gap between what they know and are thinking and the ideas you are trying to express. If I think back through

I’m just trying to take the ideas in this thread seriously. If we are going to argue that it’s bad to try to influence people’s behavior, we ought to think through what that means when applied to entities other than Facebook. That will help

That’s just the Senate deciding internally what its procedures are. Either way, the Senate is making the choice.

Merrick was a pretty moderate choice who had been praised by many Republicans. Since they never voted on him, we don’t really know if they would have changed their minds and voted against him.

Retaliatory action in a trade war is probably a good idea, but the government may not have a legal tool to block the app for that reason. Hence the need to come up with a security threat. I’m skeptical of the security issue. If China wanted

Apple’s argument is that Epic forced this action by violating their contract. Epic will respond that the contract is unfair and illegal, and Apple’s treatment of different developers under the contract is inconsistent. It ends up being a co

I don’t think that it’s ever been the case that a seller or broadcaster of media couldn’t choose what kind of content they want to distribute.
