I think that the Google is stepping into the realm of government because they might feel that government services are lacking in this realm. These records and controls for what remains available would be better served in a government settin

Google is claiming to be acting in the interests of the public without the same mechanisms accessible to the public for moderating how this ability is used. Today Google can cite public interest, but it is just aligned and not acting purely

Self driving cars. The amount of time saved for humanity will be absolutely staggering and free up people to spend more time accomplishing more things.

I've heard about stories about government agencies and such second hand from family members. To me, it sounds like it breaks down to this because the projects that they are running are not subject to risk of failure. There isn't a

A bad mark on your credit isn't the end of the story for that debt. You should check out if you can still pay it and get the mark off.

They don't have to relay purely on one solution. It would make sense to host certain parts of their infrastructure on GCP if enough of their customers are also located on GCP.

Those are really valuable skills too. There is a slant for engineering here since the site is for, by, of engineers. I recently joined a new team and we have a totally kick-ass technical product manager we work with pretty heavily. He is an

And there definitely is different categories for risk. People probably don't have equal risk tolerance for eating questionable food and gambling.

Mess with stuff in your free time. Most of the time people won't want to hire you to lead implementation/designing things unless you have experience doing it which can be a pretty nasty catch-22. Having some side projects side ste

There is another article [1] that speaks very similarly about how niche unique things become popular and ultimately subverted. It (being [1]) speaks about subcultures being completely dead and I disagree with that. They are just transformed

The US government hasn't acknowledge the existence of aliens, but in 2016 the CIA admitted to funding programs because they suspected the existence of aliens. It is very hard to find a good source to link though due to terrible SNR whe

It always bugs the hell out of me that many large organizations will file for patents that they have no intent of developing. I worked at a certain large corporation previously and they would have patent brain storming camps encouraging var

It isn't just about skin color, it is about in-group favoritism. Most people tend to seek out similarities to others in groups depending on the context. Could be sex, race, profession, hobbies, interests, etc. There definitely is a sca

One of the downsides is that a larger system collects more money and becomes a much more ripe target for individuals looking to corrupt it.

A buddy of mine has a theory that every great product needs a gimmick. It needs something that makes it seem like it stands apart from similar products. Going to sell a pen? No! Sell a pen that appeals to someone's sense of a adventure

Not that directly, but the US legal process definitely favors the wealthier because they have access to more resources, namely better lawyers.

I can't find the source right now, but drivers have been privileged versus pedestrians since around 1900 when vehicles were given the right of way instead of the pedestrian who had it before. Legislation was also introduced to change c
