In Spanish the idiom "Salud, dinero y amor" (health, wealth, and love, in that order) is (very) commonly used when talking about what's important in life. I wonder if that had an influence in the results for Spain, which seem quite different from the rest of European countries.

I guess that's tongue in check. If that were the case shareholders would push for a reduction in the workforce.

Exactly (Google employee here as well). Those articles are completely disingenuous. You could have made the headline “Google will increase the pay of remote workers” and it would be equally true.

How could a picture be in a CSAM database if you just took it with your camera?

The Spanish translation is amazing

Could be some kind of joke/Easter egg.

In spanish "Gallo" is also used to refer to that high pitch that sometimes comes randomly when speaking, more commonly in male teenagers. Which is similar to what's happening here.

You know, you make a good point.

I think the problem with your argument is equating the covid vaccine to medical experimentation as considered in the Nuremberg Code. That code was written as the result of the Nazi experimentation of human subjects. The covid vaccine is technically experimental under the FDA definition only because it hasn't received full approval yet, but it has already gone through trials that (to some extent) have proved its safety. I don't think "medical experiment" has used in the code is the same as in the case of the covid vaccine as of today.

And your point is? No one is strapping down Google employees to a chair to inject them with a vaccine.

They are free not to take it if they chose to do so, and accept the consequences of their actions like any adult would.

I respect more the position of an individual saying he doesn't want to get the vaccine because of his personal convictions than because his religions tells him so (although, to be clear, I think both are stupid positions).

Hopefully Google will only allow exemptions based on health issues.

I use borgbase (https://www.borgbase.com) for my online backups. It took a few days to make the initial upload, but now it's it only takes a couple of minute every hour. And you can select the pruning strategy you want.

I haven't had to use it yet, but I check the files from time to time, and so far I'm satisfied with the service.

nitpick: $0.2 is 20 cents, not 2 cents.

Isn't that technically illegal according to federal law? I.e. aren't you effectively discriminating against other people based on their sex and/or race (by making their interviews more difficult explicitly because of that reason)?

That's exactly what the iPad supports now. So not a dream anymore.

Having worked in the industry (thankfully not anymore), surprisingly that's how it works in the real world as well. Engineers are given a tape-out date that they have to meet, but managers have some hidden extra slack just in case.

The announced new incremental reading feature doesn’t seem to be incremental reading as implemented in supermemo, no? How do the articles come back to your pile, and how do you extract the information from them? The way it’s explained it seems like a normal anki-like flow to me.
