Or FB knew that this person was your friend's boyfriend and decided to show them as a possibility. You might have even seen them there before and didn't know them and thus ignored them.

I don't find myself reading code for the sake of reading it. I'm usually trying to answer some questions, such as "how is this structured?" or "what might be causing buggy behavior X" or "how expensive is

The Suez Canal, like many ports and other canals, requires a Pilot to board every vessel that transits it. The pilots are local experts working with the Suez Canal Authority that work with the ship captains onboard the ship to help them nav

It's exactly like refactoring. You can replace a component that does something with a different structure for accomplishing that. Of course, if the system was tangled, then you may need to refactor other components first (read: relocat

So yes it affects a lot of trade. But it can be worked around. Ships can sail around Africa or goods can be shipped across the Pacific and across the Panama Canal or via rail across America. Obviously those are more expensive, but the goods

Yes. Writing code with bugs breaks internal development rules. The issue wasn't thread-unsafe code. It was confusion about object lifecycle. An env object was assumed to no longer be used by the web framework after a request terminated

This seems to take the view that all feedback is pointing out shortcomings. That's not the only type of feedback that's useful. Sometimes I might just want to ask a question, or propose another idea that may or may not be better t

What is the point of such a crazy schedule? If someone has to do a double-graveyard shift and is basically useless the rest of the week, why not just split that shift into two so you don't destroy all of the people who try to cover suc

No, what I'm saying is that dismissing a complaint of the company doing something wrong is missing the point. Deferring to a policy whose theoretical purpose is to defend against leaks and protect trade secrets as a justification for f

Airlines are basically one of the few industries that includes the taxes in the fares that they show when browsing. They do sell add-ons for more money, but that's quite different from just showing you part of the price before checkout

Did you ever leave a notebook that had work notes at home or in your car? Ever gotten an e-mail on your work account that should have gone to a personal one? Use any SaaS service that would get access to company data?

"company policy" at large corporations is not designed to do anything other than provide cover for the corporation to do what it wants.

Fair enough. There's a tension here between integrity and usefulness that is interesting, though. If I were to put myself into their shoes I'd be hesitant to commit to a specific public-facing policy for filtering ratings and revi

Responsibility for what, exactly? They don't have a responsibility to publish any particular review in the store. They're free to include/exclude/weight the data they receive to give you star ratings for apps in any way

Google doesn't care whether Robinhood succeeds or not. It cares whether people trust the Play Store ratings (and more broadly, trust the Play Store itself). They'll do what's needed to achieve their goals, not Robinhood.

A rating is not a thing that an app deserves. It's a datapoint published by an app store to help its users make decisions about which apps to use.

This is a very simplistic of what code is and the role it plays in a system. There are many implementations that can fulfill a set of requirements. Not all of them are created equal. The ways in which they behave as the system changes can b

I struggle to see the type of regulation regime that could work effectively to prevent such profiles from being created (the data collection would move overseas and then later be re-sold as contact lists, or as audiences, etc.).

What can Eric Schmidt do differently? Let's say Google suddenly made it their #1 priority to make sure to never ever collect profiles about minors. Would that make the advice any less useful? They still have competitors from all around
