The scope of Alphabet’s ambition for the Google brand is clear: it wants Google’s information organizing brain to be embedded right at the domestic center — i.e. where it’s all but impossible for consumers not to feed it with a steady stream of highly personal data. Made by Google. Documented by Google. Stored by Google. Abused by Google.

Google? They are still around?
LOL. They should change their motto to "Hey, at least we are not Monsanto."

Google Pixel owners receive free unlimited Google Photos storage at original picture and 4k video quality. Apple’s telling me to pay up or else and it feels like extortion. Cheeky, or deceptive?

Why not both?
Or did you intend it to be Boolean algebra?

Surely the EU will come to Apple's aid and slap Google silly for this anti-competitiveness...
Wait! The EU hates Apple as much as it hates Google... what is an abusive overlord to do?

Big companies have a way of accidentally stepping on little companies as they move around sometimes, crushing a thriving business with a minor change to their Terms of Service or a decision to stop publishing a certain data feed. But every once in awhile, one of those seemingly random little steps manages to squish up the dirt under one of us little guys, leaving us better off than we were before. How AWS helped the little guy (inadvertently).

This piece is just an opinion, and like any JavaScript framework, it shouldn’t be taken too seriously. No JavaScript frameworks were created during the writing of this article. Not news, per se, but amusing.

No venture capital, no Bay Area presence, no crazy burn rate: MailChimp’s founders built the company slowly by anticipating customers’ needs and following their instincts. Not your typical start-up fairy tale.

It seems Spotify is in for trouble as numerous music lovers are reporting that its freemium streaming service is pushing malware-infested ads to its users. Show's over, folks. Nothing to see here.

Uber driver Nathan Stachelek was pulled off to the side of the road when he saw the self-driving car turn the wrong way. Yea, but does it go the wrong way on a one-way street more than I do?

If a self-driving car can navigate Pittsburgh, Cleveland will be simple.
My question is, what happens when a self-driving car runs out of juice on a hill?

Yahoo Inc last year secretly built a custom software program to search all of its customers' incoming emails for specific information provided by U.S. intelligence officials, according to people familiar with the matter. If Yahoo scans customer emails, but has no customers, does it reveal any information?
|
|
|
|
|
Would that include the accounts badged as ATT.net and administered by Yahoo! (including ameritech.net and so on)?
And in that case, were other CEO's consulted as well? Which other firms would be included?

You may have thought it was just a cloud computing service, but Microsoft's Azure Cloud is on its way to become the first artificial intelligence supercomputer, according to the company's CEO Satya Nadella. "My CPU is a neural-net processor; a learning computer (and it backs up in the Cloud)."

It all makes sense now.
Azure is the color of the sky. And MS's platform is .net...

Unless you're elephanting stupid enough to buy them from the sunshine network (aka verizon); in which case you're all but guaranteed the joy of not getting security patches because the marketing team things it's more likely make you buy a newer phone from them.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?
