I don't think he knows when you remove him from a circle, I don't think he knows the name of the circle too.

Then remove him from the circle.

AFAIK you can put people in several circles.

Why would they be tired? Is it a pain to upgrade? (I admit I've become used to chrome upgrading in the background).

But it removes many pains from screen, an easy configuration tool makes it way easier to use.

Since Instant, it had become really useless. As soon as you start typing it disappears.

The announcement ( http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2011/06/knocking-down-barrier... ) says it uses a feature available in the next chrome beta (see here for the technical details: http://www.chromium.org/developers/design-documents/prerende

Yeah, I don't know how you define friends. They already show "Foo shared this on twitter" for some results (with a link to the twitter profile), which I've found quite useful.

If your friends +1'd something that is shown in a search result, aren't you more likely to click on it rather than the other results?

Do they really have the infrastructure? Which other datacenters besides the NC one have they been building? (I think AWS has many more datacenters, both in the US and outside).

And low cost in Europe (e.g. Easyjet) which aren't usually aggregated in flight search.

Not always, it might also mean they moved it into maintenance mode.

Yes, and it is deprecated, not shutdown: "we have no current plans to remove existing functionality".

You can chose if you profile is indexable or not.

A web index is not the same thing as a database about people. The original blog post explicitly says he built such database, he didn't just mirrored Google's data. It's not illegal if you get the necessary permissions from the privacy agenc

Does not make it legal. Even if the original provider got consent from the user, it doesn't mean you have the right to copy the database (and that you shouldn't declare the data collection to the relevant privacy agencies).

by tonfa 15y ago
Why act, they make great effort to explain that the data is public. You can even chose if you want to be indexable (search visibility).

> I did NOT publish the database and did NOT violate any Google policy. But he might have broken some EU and NL laws about privacy. You can't create a database with personal information without consent even if it's possible.

> It's not just the rents but also the law of tenancy. Germany's laws are tenant-friendly, whereas British laws are -- from what I've read -- landlord-friendly. Not sure it actually matters. Zürich is probably as tenant-friendly as Berl

Just to counter the negative bias :) I had an awesome hiring experience. Extremely responsive recruiter (I understand that's not always the case given the number of temps). Took me two weeks from on site to getting an offer. Everyone I refe

Note that at least in France, this made the front page on the website of all major newspaper (Le Monde, Liberation, etc.). It's probably the same in many european country where Facebook is sometimes struggling to keep a clean image.

Comparing long term performance of git vs hg(draketo.de)

Just try or check the source. If they use patience or some kind of cdv merge, I expect they would get the same merge in both direction.

Do you have a page describing how that would differ? The bk website seems awfully outdated: there's no mention of the existence of other DVCS, there's a quote from MySQL being happy with bk -- they switched to bazaar two years ago --, etc..

Matt's point is that while some algorithms will fix this particular case, you can still come up with a different edge case which makes it break. The whole "prefect merge tool" was very popular five years ago (during git's and mercurial's in

Same as git, and you'll probably get the same reactions. """ In other words, we're already at the point of significantly diminished, possibly negative returns on effort. The last few percent will always require some level of human-equivalen

You should actually automatically generate the random string, less friction for the user (and leave the choice to choose the string, kinda like how you can do with etherpad).

There are parts of the world (Scandinavia) where the tax filling is public, from that you can have a good guess.

This is bogus, the kernel bits are GPL so they were already released by Google... Edit: additionally, why link to slashdot instead of a source? Is it submitted by a bot?
