For RTC tools, I still prefer video chat over slack. Text is way too easily misconstrued and I think especially working remotely voice/face is better for building the type of collaboration you want between the team.

seeing that his entire business is based on what is essentially a dashcam I understand why he is out saying this.

For a supposedly tech related group, I'm more surprised that you guys are surprised on whats being tracked. Yes Google has the ability to track A LOT because of the severvices most people use, but don't most people have an abundance of tracking and user metrics across their own product. I know every company I've worked at does the same.

I've worked everywhere from small startups, to big FAANG companies and big enterprise companies. I am in the very same opinion as op.

1. Financially the exits weren't worth it. The amount you actually learn is incredibly questionable.

2. Working at bigger companies I learned a hell of a lot more, from the mere fact that there are a bigger pool of resources with a lot of experience to go get help from. This is just not technology, but even from improving management and soft skills. You'll learn a hell of a lot more on your career path moving up to Director and VP level from a big company than the equivalent title at a startup.

3. Everything else is really dependent on you as an individual. I personally thrived at a big company. As the writer suggested at a startup its all about shipping and things are pretty much laid out for you. At a big company, it really gives you time to take advantage of resources and people .. you just have to be very aggressive and pro active in your pursuits.

I think he got caught up in the #metoo at its peak and probably laying low.

besides possibly open source applications, I just can't think of any good use case for this ? Why ?

exactly. If anyone has the data as to how many units a single person or persons of relation are renting its airbnb. Airbnb is clearly screwing the citizens and the city over here.

I'm not sure about other states, but in CA you still need a special license, the same as a motorcycle, to ride a moped. I'm sure this would be the biggest blocker.

a few years from now, we're going to have the top instagram accounts all being photorealistic computer generated posts with AI determining the content that real humans want to see.

I thought real estate was already in the public domain.

why wasn't apollo server included in the benchmarks ?

these are both hazards that are brought from the lack of user policing done by Bird who doesn't care about the city or users as long as they can profit.

Also Bird has no intention to police their own users or help cities participate in the upside of their mess.

This isn't even remotely close. The only way your car analogy would be relateable is if car drivers didn't follow the rules of the road and were free to drive on sidewalks and dump them in the front lawn of companies and personal homes.

If you ever visit santa monica you will know exactly what I mean. The fact that anyone can pick one up and drop it off anywhere is much different. Skateboards and roller skates are anywhere near what these electric scooters are.

sentors would technically be the same count.

Currently California is +2 Dems

In the new plan it would most likely be +2 Dems +2 Rep +2 Dems = +2 Dems

So no new gain. Where it would hurt would be the electorate college. California has 55, now 1/3rd of that would go to Rep.

I personally wish there were more regulations on these. They are a complete nuisance. Santa Monica has tried to create more laws surrounding these, but the cops never enforce the rules.

Walking around sidewalks with younger kids is now dangerous from the groups of teenagers riding on these with little concern. In the same afternoon I saw a young kid get hit by a car for not following traffic rules. While its required to wear a helmet in SM no one was. These things are littered everywhere in paths just lying on the ground.

I get they are great and if we could rely on the people or the company to enforce the laws and make it a better experience I'd be in favor of them because they are convenient. I just don't believe that will happen.

I don't know how necessary this is with electronic cigs now. I know many people that have switched to e-cig, slowly reduced nicotine and have quit altogether.

Like this obviously

Are these the same millennials that bought snapchat stock at IPO ?

This doesn't make sense to me. Theaters are still collecting full price from movie pass. All they have to do is wait out moviepass to go broke and offer their own club deals with concessions deals on their own terms.

Just curious but does it really matter for a tech demo. IMO even if the person answering the phone was scripted but the AI portion was real, its still impressive to me.

I don't get it, how did they get these sales if theres nothing on their website

Facebook is just one target right now. Working in ad tech, you know how many data brokers are available and how much information your phone and apps, regardless of OS, leaks real time personal data. The issue is with the ad tech industry as a whole.

This mainly sounds like a rant about cross platform development between IOS and Android. I mean couldn't these same arguments be used to justify using RN, or flutter, or etc.. over developing IOS native. I'm sort of missing why he's pointing to Android directly. The main issue is there are two major platforms and like he said people don't want to develop things twice.

couldn't you just look at windows processes and keep track of how long its running based on when a user starts the timer. Really wouldn't an annoying timer do the job just as well ?

google hangouts allo talk

I think it has more to do with the vultures at Bain Capital and Vornado pillaging the company

I don't agree but to each their own. Now with self checkout, 4 major supermarkets near me and I tend to go later at night.. I really don't see the problem

You're referring to an advertising agency

Would you consider Google a media company or are they an ad company.
