I'm a manager at a FAANG company who has gone through the hiring process a number of times now. I was at a startup before that where we grew from 30 to 200 people and I was involved in hiring for quite a few positions. I can assure you

CoCs didn't jump out of the void for no reason. They are a response to years of harassment and unprofessional behavior at conferences. Conferences have always had a list of rules to follow and breaking the rules could get you ejected f

AFAIK there is no actual public info on what the dollar amount is (I certainly don't know what it is). The house report says they don't know how much Google pays and they pulled the numbers from a story on the web that was guessin

Possibly? I didn't see anything in the complaint about the use of their search landing page to push Chrome on people. That could be a problem because Chrome always defaults to Google search. Honestly... what would Chrome's market

It's not illegal to be a monopoly - especially by providing a superior product or service. The case hinges on the no-compete, tying, and default placement agreements. If Google didn't pay anyone to be the default search engine, di

Why is everyone accepting the unstated assumption: that a child's actions (if the dubious allegations were true) should reflect on the parent? Corruption of blood is even prohibited by the Constitution and for good reason. Eve if Hunte

Nearly all glassmaking involves adding all the glass bits you cut off or broke back into the kiln. Almost no glass is actually 100% virgin glass. So glass is absolutely recyclable. The only caveat is colored glass can only really be used to

This happened in SF. Sonic ran fiber out in Sunset. Suddenly, and by coincidence I'm sure, AT&T found the money to start upgrading to fiber in the exact same neighborhoods. If you live in SF definitely check if Sonic's own fib

Enough of these kinds of incidents are now known that I'd imagine neurologists would be on the lookout for the signs. During this time he'd have had plenty of brain activity as opposed to truly vegetative patients. Perhaps if fMRI

SCSI rules the world I guess. ATAPI tunneled SCSI commands over PATA for CD drives and other such things. AFAIK SATA uses the SCSI command set too (as does Serial Attached SCSI obviously). To the point that most SAS controllers can also run
