Your reason for splitting this into two separate settings is understandable.

>> ...with the hope that more people will feel comfortable getting the benefits of better search in Workspace without having to opt-into search history being tracked for all Google services.

This is unacceptable. People have already opted out or been opted out by their admin. If they want to opt back in now that the setting is more granular, they can, but this choice should not be made for them.

Let's be honest, the real reason for making this opt-out again is that you hope lots of people won't notice and you can start collecting their data. Please reconsider.
Thank you, I really appreciate your answer.

It's sad to see how all of this tech is just doing one thing: enabling badly run "care homes" to reduce staffing count even further, and generally covering up the fact that we as a society are failing our elders.
So I went and looked up the radicalising incident: https://thetyee.ca/News/2020/09/23/BC-Ecosocialist-Leader-St... ; and without re-litigating the whole JKR controversy, he states as facts some things in that quoted post which are completely contrary to the reality of the treatment of trans minors, which is itself an extremely difficult treatment to access. It's not something pushed on anyone.

This is the "cancelled-to-alt-right-pipeline". Someone says a bunch of incorrect things that are harmful to a minority, is rudely corrected on social media, and decides to go hard to the other side.
How much inflation has Fed's intervention after the subprime crisis caused? We have 40 years of data showing that there is zero correlation between inflation and M0. And there's actually no correlation between the money supply at large and inflation in the US in that period either!

> Milton Friedman said in 1970, “Inflation is always and everywhere a monetary phenomenon.”

He was wrong, and “little has changed since then”.

Most of today's inflation is supply-chain-driven, and the differential between US and outside of the world is caused by two things:

- how strong the US economy was before the crisis

- the stimulus package, intended to bounce the economy back as strong as it was, which is impaired by the aforementioned supply-chain issues.
> I’m not american but I’m struggling to understand how someone‘s unemployment can be higher than their wage.

Unemployment in the US is state-based, and usually a fraction of recent-past monthly income. During the pandemic, there was an emergency boost designed to bring the average unemployment benefit up to full wage, but this was implement (for simplicity) as a flat $ amoung on top of the usual state unemployment benefit, not a change to the formula. So, lower wage workers ended up above 100% of their recent-past wage while the emergency enhancement was in effect.

Hang on, are people frothing angrily because Google is telling users of Workspace that what they search _within workspace_ apps is retained for 18 months to make their search more useful?

While at the same time reminding them that that world and the ad world don’t colide?

I’d say most people who searched for their colleague’s presentation wont give two shits if google retains it.
Similiar tool would be great for movie players - interface where one can see overall view of a plot but also references to particular actor's appearance for instance.

This might be an annoying bug, but I wouldn't call this a doxxing vulnerability. Your userid stays the same, no matter what your handle is. Of course, the userid is mostly hidden for the end user, but there are a few services that track changing handles by referencing the userid. So you could be doxxed all the time anyways. Now it is just a bit more obvious.
I don't even know how to play Sudoku.

Because we can't see each other's faces.

It's a step along the spectrum of why this textual interaction is not the same as a real world interaction.

Another example would be the plexiglass screens in shops. Theoretically it's just a clear thing that blocks spit. In practice it means there's a psychological barrier which "others" you from each other.

They're also physically uncomfortable.

Describing this as "trivial" is needlessly provocative. You might not care about it, that's not the same as it being irrelevant.
> It doesn't scale well to large teams

Doesn't saying stuff like this just contribute to your reasons 1-3 that boil down to perception issues, and not anything wrong fundamentally with the language itself or even its modern day practitioners? I don't disagree that Lisp doesn't scale in the sense that there's not enough Lisp programmers available to actually scale to such grand sizes of even 1000 developers right away, but as I'm sure you already know I want to say for the benefit of passersby that Common Lisp itself is object oriented, has namespaces and can support a modular or component style of development, its global memory model isn't too unlike that of the JVM prior to Java 9 (i.e. everything dynamically loaded and being introspectable and to some degree changeable (more effort in JVM)), it's been used for multi-million line projects (not sure how large the teams for those are/were though), and nothing of the recent microservices trend to scale in a different way is forbidden to Lisp...

Besides, it's not like enterprise companies that have 1000+ devs actually have a 1000+ size team with a single standup. No, things are divided into smaller teams of around 2-10 with maybe 6 being average.

I disagree somewhat with your reasons 3 and 5 and 7, having worked at an enterprise company with thousands of developers and been involved in hiring processes. Maybe I was just lucky and other enterprises are different? In my case, the implicit incentives might sometimes align in the direction you indicate, but explicitly, no, they don't. Hiring selects for stronger technical skills over weaker technical skills, interviewers prefer candidates who have a story of leadership/taking action/dealing with people socially (i.e. how do you handle such and such kind of a disagreement) over heads down and take orders and pretends there are no disagreements, no participation. Each engineer is pressured into career growth and expected to reach a certain role level after N years. Getting promoted to such a level typically involves taking on some sort of leadership role that impacts more than just your own team, and often more than one such role or a secondary role in another's project because things fall through. Despite encapsulation, things very often broke in the monolith (note only in development, production breakages were rare), and many new hires had to be trained to not sync every day if they wanted a more peaceful life. The teams that end up with a domineering management who allow no input from the development side typically don't last long because the developers switch teams (easy to do in an enterprise org where there are tons of teams with headcount every quarter) and with no team left area ownership will be dispersed. No manager has 100 direct reports. They might have 100+ indirect reports, but after a certain direct size, they have to become a higher level manager. They may still retain a couple ICs as direct reports but most of their directs change into a small number of other managers or directors, in classic org chart hierarchy.
ok so you havent yet found a way to monetise this specific data yet.

But when you do its there ready and waiting.

I find it staggering how normalised privacy abuse has become with big tech.
It is a completely different code base however and even in a wrong language so it isn’t really monad. However it is their goal (to imitate that experience) and how they market it.
Just as you can run any program on any machine given enough time and resources (memory), anyone not lacking intellectual ability can learn anything - some quicker, some slower.
Wel gee, sorry that I was hired by a molecular neurobiology research group where all my colleages were at least PhD level biologists and that I didn't manage to catch up to their level in the two years that my contract lasted, dad. At least they appreciated me enough to give me sixth co-authorship on a paper published in Cell, even though I don't understand three-quarters of it. You want to complain that I'm not an Olympiad heart surgeon too?

/s, obviously, my dad is actually very proud of me.

edit: this attempt at a sarcastic jab pissed some people off I guess. My point was that sure, the critique that issue of "people who understand one thing think they understand everything" applies disproportionately to programmers (and STEM people in general), but trying to defend against that by acting smugly superior about your own domain of expertise isn't going to fix that, that just makes you a problem on the other side of the coin.
> I do not know the specific background of Mr Lee

As an undergraduate, he studied maths at Trinity College Cambridge. Béla Bollobás said [1]:

> I certainly taught him more than anybody else in
Cambridge. I can truthfully say that he was an exceptionally
good student. I’m not sure that this is really known in
Singapore. “Because he’s now the Prime Minister,” people
may say, “oh, you would say he was good.” No, he was truly
outstanding: he was head and shoulders above the rest of
the students. He was not only the first, but the gap between
him and the man who came second was huge.

> I think that he did computer science (after mathematics)
mostly because his father didn’t want him to stay in
pure mathematics. Loong was not only hardworking,
conscientious and professional, but he was also very
inventive. All the signs indicated that he would have been a
world-class research mathematician. I’m sure his father never
realized how exceptional Loong was. He thought Loong was
very good. No, Loong was much better than that. When I
tried to tell Lee Kuan Yew, “Look, your son is phenomenally
good: you should encourage him to do mathematics,” then
he implied that that was impossible, since as a top-flight
professional mathematician Loong would leave Singapore
for Princeton, Harvard or Cambridge, and that would send
the wrong signal to the people in Singapore. And I have to
agree that this was a very good point indeed. Now I am
even more impressed by Lee Hsien Loong than I was all
those years ago, and I am very proud that I taught him; he
seems to be doing very well. I have come round to thinking
that it was indeed good for him to go into politics; he can
certainly make an awful lot of difference.

He then did the (now-discontinued) Diploma in Computer Science at Cambridge.

Well then you got the wrong message. A glass of wine can contain over 50mg of methanol. If something's at or below the FDA reference dose, it's not worth worrying about. The FDA is rather risk-averse and tends to set limits far below what would actually cause harm.

To give you another bit of data: The metabolite of methanol that actually causes damage (formic acid) is a common food additive and is naturally present in many fruits, honey, and of course ant venom. If tiny amounts caused issues, we'd know by now.
no, but at least here on Fx mobile, i can long-tap and see where it's going.
Honestly it’s hard to read your comment without an envious tone. You even admitted his timing was right, that alone takes skill. The point others are making is that there are lots of examples of failed companies, yet his have been successful. If anyone could have done what he’s done, why haven’t they?
Worked fine on mine (chrome on Android): touch and hold and wait for pop up. If the link in the upper right is cut short with an ellipsis, touching the link will expand it, just like ellipsis shortened alt texts.

You might not give him credit even if he did. We're in a thread where people are wondering whether he's not just a figurehead for SpaceX, so... what exactly are we taking about?

AFAIK Musk's involvement in Tesla was specifically to address climate change/ help move the industry towards electric cars. To the extent that this, plus improved battery tech, ends up reducing our oil dependency and eventually contributes to "solving climate change" - would you credit any of that back to him? Or just say that he didn't single-handedly solve climate change, so it doesn't count?
When I was young, I thought that anybody could learn programming. I was horribly, horribly wrong.
Those are the political conditions imposed by the ruling party at the time; the measures did get actual money to the public, but to do so it was necessary to pay off everyone who might have objected.
Friends I know run a small Canadian documentary film production company. They received a hefty chunk of change in the early days of the pandemic that they really didn't need.

That was an extremely high risk change on GCP's part, reminds me of the App Engine days when you'd wake up to find a totally healthy program spamming 500s because they'd make a breaking change without any announcement. It's shocking they're still pulling stuff like this in 2022

But I think the point is that she wasn't convicted of endangering people's lives, which many would consider a far greater crime than just a con defrauding some gullible marks. People depended on those tests. They made choices (such as whether or not to have surgeries) based on the results.
hahah love this!
> None of the suggested changes in the paper give black equal or more wins than white.

Sure. Why would that be the goal though?

Many of them do reduce the difference between black and white, by increasing the number of draws, but that's not generally seen as desirable.
Thanks you for showing so clearly and so openly that you and google are full of crap.

It's not a bad business. Senior ministers in Singapore are paid multi-million dollar salaries. According to Transparency International, Singapore is one of the least corrupt countries. I'd guess that's because there's no need for side hustles because the job pays so well.

We have a vivid history of pounding ideological dogmas into kid's heads (Hitler Jugend was one such program, and Marxists-Leninist in recent history). Both ended up not only in socio-economic disasters, but brought destruction and untold pains to the masses, and turned (necessarily) into murderous doctrines at the end. I do not see this ending up any different (especially reading these mediocre-bureaucratic documents outlining a policy), and the fact that due to "green actions" at EU level are expected to send 1/4 of populace into poverty (by their own study). Who is behind such evilness? What is the need for this? If there is a need, is this really best strategy? Can this be even implemented in non-harmful way? Why appeal to emotions in any and all such debates, even in official policy documents such as these? How can one fight such proposal of despair, fear, hate and passivity toward humanity? Why is there no outcry when we are about to repeat the shameful history yet again? [ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qxZfSlkC_wo ]

i'm going out on a limb to say the comment wasn't about the word "tribe" or the merit of a tribe, it was about how people mimic each other without thinking. if what you think of as reality is determined by the group it will be in the million ways you never would've thought about.

this is why people talk so often in tropes: the thoughts they're expressing aren't their own, they're just repeating tropes they hear. this way of talking of your tribe is just an example trope.

I have to agree. You don’t turn on stuff for people who turned it off. The default should be off, no matter where you are moving the new setting, which is fine all by itself, if informing the user. Golden rule is that the user is in control.
Ignoring Postgres and comparing apples to apples, rqlite has limitations on "safe" SQL statements[1]. This might be a big deal breaker for you than it might for others. As dqlite replicates the pages and not the SQL statements over raft, which means dqlite doesn't have _that_ problem. Using random() and now() are classified as non-deterministic[2].

Using the application to send the time, although not idea could be used as a workaround, but attempting to use non-deterministic functions in triggers becomes a lot harder.

> This is a bad feature that should not be turned on by default.

Opine. Stating it matter-of-factly doesn't make it fact.

> You're effectively enabling the ease of search warrants of journalists and activists' search history

Here you pull the "think of the children!" card. All those poor journalists and activists using Workspaces. Your response is to bring up politically vulnerable outlier groups and parade them around to satisfy your own need to express moral outrage.

> it sounds like you simply don't understand why people would have issues with this

I don't understand why people want to be outraged for the sake of being outraged. It's becoming exhausting.

I switched from SBCL to CCL for some web services due to issues with the former's GC. Seeing how some developers greatly preferred the native Hemlock environment over Emacs, I made the switch globally without many issues.

These days I use LispWorks, although I tend to separate GUI code from back-end code and make sure the latter is portable across implementations. Running tests on SBCL also catches some bugs at compile time which is nice.
Haha. This is so common with Big Tech. "Are you sure you want to turn off sending us more free user data?" Gosh, why would anyone want to do that.

Somewhere between paternalism and conniving. For those working at Big Tech it seems there can be no such thing as a conflict of interest between the company and a user (ad target).

Google workers spend their time devising ways to collect more user data. If some users spend their time devising ways to minimise the data they are sharing, how can the company's interests and the user's interests be aligned. They cannot. Google workers can try to convince users that there no harm in sharing more data with Google, even claiming it will benefit them to do so. They are basically downplaying the user's interests. There is no negotiation. Google will never contemplate the notion of collecting less data.
I was about to come and say the same thing.

Its perfectly possible to create feature descriptors for 60gig radar, and use it to image rooms, things and possibly people.

Its a privacy problem we currently are trying to overcome in AR. The problem is that because feature descriptors are so small, researchers assume that they don't contain PII. So its going to take a scandal before its taken seriously.

Given that most of FAANG are making some sort of 3d map, I'm sure we are going to get pictures of people's bedrooms leaking soon enough.
