I wonder if Snapchat is/will become a large user of this service? Depending on the average response time of this API, Snapchat could get much better ad targeting analyzing their Stories content. I imagine that they have something simil

I think algo/ds interviews are created to test only one thing, and that is hard work. The idea that they test problem solving is mostly bullshit. Most people are good at algorithm interviews because they've practiced them a ton.

Ah interesting, thanks for the perspective. I'm surprised nobody has build any local management software for chromebooks, but maybe Google makes it difficult.

I'm curious how much of a boon Chromebooks/low cost laptops were for schools in low-income areas. I can imagine they made quite a significant impact!

A big problem with schools in the US is that grades carry so much weight. Taking a class which you don't have an immediate aptitude for is frowned upon. Kids should be allowed to take more risks to learn different things.

I think this proves that HR should be fundamentally separate from a company. The incentives are setup for a company's HR division to try and maximize success for the company. Just like the NFL and NBA have player's associations, H

Yahoo most likely has contingencies in place that would make a pullout from the deal very painful for VZ. Otherwise VZ would have much more leverage, since they don't need Yahoo like Yahoo needs them.

I feel like it is a classic political move to put a face to an issue like this. California, seemed to do the same thing, by having patrons ask for water at restaurants. Obviously, the benefits of this weren't just that the directly sav

It is disappointing because I personally still believe Twitter has a lot of potential, and it seems like they can't catch a break. I don't work at Twitter, so it is hard for me to tell how much this exec drain has had an effect on

This article briefly covers Google Home's advantages in the conclusion, but I think they are pretty understated. The fact that I can have roughly the same experience as Alexa on my phone at anytime is huge. I know that you can get the

+1 to this. I used to work with a guy like that and it created a ton of tech debt. He would write new services using a new technology for each one, not to documenting or maintaining any of them.

I feel like while this does open up a lot of new interesting questions, it could also just be happenstance. It seems like there would be so many potential factors that could be causing a distribution like this. But I'm not a scientist,

I wonder what kind of cost cutting they will do. Whenever I hear cost cuts, I always think layoffs, but at a time where they need to ramp up production, I feel like that would be counterproductive.

With all that is going on with the DNC and election, Obama has gotten a lot of great press recently; his approval numbers are sky high. I'm not saying that I don't think Obama is a good president, but people seem to forget two big
