Then you need to plan your trip ahead of time. With SuperShuttle, you can't predict who they are going to pick up along the way either.

It might be down to memory/space allocation after all. All hashtable requires rehashing up to certain fill rate, otherwise it will regress to linear look up. For the two most popular implementations, linked-list based or open addressin

What I meant this level of funding is not adequate for the company's operation, regardless of the planned ad spending. Yes they shouldn't spend on ads, like not at all. They should instead focus on raising more money to be serious

The title is super misleading. They have only 150k in funding. I wouldn't attribute their bankruptcy to Google or FB.

Tensorflow is a proof that some people in Google don't understand software engineering: They don't know and can't decide even what interface they want to expose/hide. It is a disaster.

Sundar lacks that maverick charm that founders of legendary company usually have. He feels ... reserved and safe. Maybe that is what Google needs at this moment

Yep...Not on their product. Although this is fascinating, the amount of attack/defense in our browser just trying to put a block of ad in front of you and the CPU cycles that are wasted, I don't think it apply to my case.

Damn too late to buy AMD stocks? It is unbelievable to me, the level of inaction from Intel's managements just sit there all these years with all the advantage and cash they have had, and watch all of these washed away. Their response?

EU can just fine Google and use that money as a foundation to build competitors. Need not to be more complicated than that. It is not like Google is the same darling it once was at home either. The public now has an appetite to go after US

Nah, two or more search engines all being the product of US big techs won't solve the problem. EU should have its own search engine. They should subsidize this effort and have Google pay for it.
