Even if we assume that all of Google is based on ML algorithms (not true, given problems like serving, front end, data collection, ...), ML itself is 90% SWE work.

Do you live in Western society? There is a prevelant point of view that it is wiser to have children later, because otherwise it hurts your career.

I am not saying this is wrong. It does, though, decrease the number of kids we have.

I used to take omega-3 fish oil for about a month. My cholesterol levels went through the roof, even though I was taking only a spoon a day as recommended. For anyone who tries it, I strongly recommend to stop a blood exams before and a month or two afterwards.

As a teenager that grew up hating Bill Gates, because I liked Linux, I want to agree with you. As an adult, I believe we should be able to see past the surface of behavior that other people exhibit and understand their motives.

It is nowadays in fashion to cancel someone based on today's norms, but if we want to be fair, we should put things in context that we don't have. If Bill Gates was so toxic that was unbearable, Microsoft would have failed.

I don't understand this criticism. Sundar has technical background and great product vision. How many other people have been involved in so successful projects that define the industry like Chrome and Android?

Indeed, Google has hired a lot of people with business background lately to operate large parts of it's business. We should, though, acknowledge that Google operates in many now mature markets where innovation plays secondary role to focusing on existing customer needs.

Ctrl+Shift+vErtical Ctrl+Shift+hOrizontal

I just run Terminator in a window maximized and the above shortcuts and Ctrl+D when necessary are more than enough.
