   So it looks like Google grabbed about 40 links before giving up? I wonder what a good "score" is? At first, I'd guess less is better, but too few might be running the risk of throwing out potentially good pages. Too many, and the bot is jus

   So his email got picked up and syndicated. How is that not like a blog post? This sounds like a ploy to get some fraction of his readers to cross-post for him.

   I HATE padded text. Length constraints kill the quality of many student, academic, and professional writings. In the last 10 years of my education, I routinely submitted works less than 80% of the required length and still received A grades

   They use all the data they get from every source they can get and they link it all together any way they can. I have no inside knowledge, but that seems pretty clear cut. What's to speculate?

   I'm partial to whiteboards for early mockups and tablets for digitizing more final mockups. I don't really see much value in using a tool like this for early mockups. You might as well use a real designer like Visual Studio, Flex, Blend, et

   I'm almost positive I paid for my haircut while there... The haircut, dentist, car-wash, etc perks aren't so much about being free as they are about being convenient due to being located on-site.

    That's why I ended the post by saying this was a personal experience. I just wanted to make the point that it certainly appeared like Microsoft was better prepared to cope with this situation and it also seemed that it was due to a more mat

    While we are trying to draw parallels, I've got one: You can eat too much of your own dog food. Lucas loves his ILM, and rightfully so, but that doesn't necessitate CGI fire on the torches in the new Indy movie. Just because you have a lot

    Jeff Dean builds his code before committing it, but only to check for compiler and linker bugs. When Jeff Dean has an ergonomic evaluation, it is for the protection of his keyboard. All pointers point to Jeff Dean. http://research.google.c

    Guido's calculator, like many of ours, is the interactive Python prompt. There is a good reason Python 3000 will default to infinite precision floating point calculations (or whatever they call it) ... Guido joined Google! Working at Google

    I'm almost certain it is Jeff Dean. During my 3 month internship at Google, his name came up EVERYWHERE. 1) He is a primary author on all of Google's major infrastructure-related publications (BigTable, MapReduce, etc) 2) I've seen his inte

    Ive also tried the MVC framework. It is a huge improvement over WebForms as it neatly addresses complaint #1, but it completely fails to address complaint #2. It is also beta software under heavy development and rapid change. That said, Lin

    Bubble sort is also useful when there is temporal coherence or when exact sorting is not necessary. For example, in graphics programming you typically need to sort transparent objects back-to-front. If things are out of order, there may be

    I am a hardcore huge big time C# fan. That said, I hate ASP.net with a passion. Two key reasons: 1) It tries to simulate WinForms. It's just the wrong paradigm for the web. 2) As much as I love C#, I feel that strongly typed languages are l

    I'm 21. I've got significant confidence. I'm also very assertive. Roll those character traits together with my perpetual boredom in class, and I wind up speaking out a lot. Every since high school, I was always the student to speak my opini

    I spoke with one of the Engineers at Google working on this (I'm sorry, I forgot his name). He was telling me that a great deal of the security benefits of this can be achieved with iframes, but iframes require a second server round-trip. I
