do they mean reversing a binary tree, so that left nodes become right nodes? that is completely trivial and anybody who can't do even a simple recursive solution (perfectly reasonable if it's guaranteed balanced) ought to be ashamed of themselves

lol google's getting hosed. the "watch them pull out" threat is so dumb cause they'd be pulling out of a lot of markets. an appeals court in canada just ruled that they have to block globally as well

and doesn't the right to be forgotten apply to certain search terms only?

so if you're searching for a person by name, it will not show links to some news article, for example. but if you search for something else and the same news article is relevant, the link will show up.

you go in, talk to the hiring manager. she asks if you're a virgin. you move to the white room and do whiteboard problems while 1-2 engineers watch you. they whisper to each other as you fret nervously. If you pass, you get to talk to either director or vp.

yes but stebes ghost also watches you in the room.

I like how with google's redesigned maps, if you're in lite mode you can no longer alter the route if you can't use the 3d. So if it picks a dumb route and your platform doesn't support the new (and pointless) 3d, you've lost functionality for no benefit. gg

the motivating factor for google to do this is fear that some other startup will eat their lunch and that fear exists because larry knows fundamentally their company has no durable moat compared to apple (40 years old and still owning)

apple had no "moat" to speak of until 2009, and nearly went bankrupt more than once. you really, really, really can't look at apple's history of misamnagement and grotesque failure for inspiration

the only narrative that might work is "hey look this consumer electronics giant came out of a failed computer firm!"
