Leaked Google pay data reveals the highest salaries the tech giant pays in engineering, sales, and more


As i would like to believe all this is true, and initailly supported this movement with my wholeheart ,later it occured to me that the only reason they did this is for UP election. Why i think so ? The then reserve bank governor did not even know about this plan of Modi's nor in agreement to this.So the banker friend told this but not reserve bank governor. That's a boatload of made up story to back otherwise political motive.


Yes, I agree with your observation in part and full :) And probably it may be a net positive considering that UP was ruled by two family-owned extremely corrupt political parties...


Now it is ruled by a firebrand hindu priest who was on stage while one of his associates exhorted the crowd to dig up corpses of Muslim women and rape them.


Is this his statement or view? Is the "associate" part of his government? Maybe a "firebrand Hindu priest" follows the Rajya Dharma! A proper citation would have helped...



BBC has a very biased view: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism_of_the_BBC

Rest of the question, I couldn't find the answer in the earlier BBC link though.

I abhor these thoughts and don't justify the association though.



That's a list of accusations though, actual credible reports on BBC bias tend to show its not very biased.

Most people want it be biased in their favor.


Was with Microsoft for 6 years and ever since I left Microsoft,this is something I felt missed.This tool was available inside Microsoft was for long time ,used for very hard to track bugs or issues in almost any technology Microsoft produces.I have used time travel debugging to debug asp.Net issues a lot.Having it publicly available is simply awesome. Some things you can do 1. Record trace from any machine where the issue is happening. 2. Now take this trace to your machine where symbols and source code is aligned and start debugging 3. While debugging you can debug back and forth easily and get stacktrace,get local variables,parameters etc. 4.You can put break point if a particular variable is read/write. 5.Use all the windbg extension commands like sos,psscor etc.

It does produce large trace files while recording so running it for long time was not advisable. However it had a circular trace feature where you can keep it running with a buffer size if the issue is intermittent. Also debugging requires bit of Assembly level knowledge


Banned for unfair competition!!.So that means taxi operators could not compete for price and may be convenience offered by Uber. isn't that bad for the consumers? May be someone from Italy can comment?


no, that means that taxi companies must pay plenty of fees to meet law requirements which in the end affect price for customer

Uber is ignoring laws and don't pay these fees and taxes and SOMETIMES is able to offer cheaper ride than taxi, while in rush hour it cost more than taxi

i can easily day from comments here who is American without clue about Europe and who is European pissed about some American corporation which is ignoring any laws and pretending they are bringing some progress, like we don't have taxi woods without them, F Uber


...easily see...

...taxi apps...


I think the most common one for everyone would be "Not traveling when you had the chance" .I make it a point to travel every once in a while.And I feel that is not enough.But many of my friends are so caught up with busy life or says that they do not have money.I think you may never travel if you think that you will make enough saving to travel


I have worked on setting up complex kerberos authentication (double/tripple hops,contrained delegation, protocol transition etc) for websites in windows enviroment and if anything breaks in the whole process,things became a nightmare to figure out where the error is.I cannot imagine a mixed environment setup with unix/MIT kerberos.


Thanks for sharing this one.This is very cheap. How do we guarantee high availability/fail over on this one in case we need it ? I am guessing we have to make sure multiple servers like this should be bought and implement our own fail over.Also what is your experience with tech support ?


You tell them what distribution you want of Linux installed, they install it, and then you manage the server on your own.

Install the needed SMART utilities to keep an eye on your disks. I think if you can show them a SMART failure that means the drive will fail soon, they will replace it for you.

Their tech support is competent but is mostly limited to the basics of installing and initial configuration of network, plus taking care of the hardware.


I have mainly used Azure cloud for many of the smaller applications I run and been quite satisfied with it.My applications are on .net and I am quite familiar with Microsoft stack.I am currently in the process of building my new app in .net core+postgres and am open to Google cloud platform or AWS or any other cloud provider if it is offers better value for money and customer support.Has anyone here used Google's or AWS and got any experience/suggestions to share?


When I was working at Microsoft ,we used Time travel tracing extensively to find out bugs in asp.net,IIS and many other server side technologies where you cannot debug live.You can capture the trace from the live process while reproducing the isuue.Move it your local machine and debug yourself to oblivion :) .Imagine you use gdb/windbg and you can go back or forth from any breakpoints ,check the state of stack ,any variables etc.

But these tools were internal and not available outside.It did require good assembly knowledge and always condidered cool by everyone else because not everyone knew or mastered it.I always thought that Microsoft should open source or at least release it outside .


On Linux, there is http://rr-project.org/

Or a commercial, more polished product http://undo.io/

Other environments, like JVM also have such tools (e.g. http://chrononsystems.com/).


Btw,Time-Travel Debugging for Node-Chakracore is publicly available and is also open source! Check it out here https://aka.ms/nodeTTD


Though there are many negative comments here,I think this is going to be huge for win for many if they deliver the mobile part decently. At least if they port windows phones basic apps as it is (caller,messages,email etc),I will give it a try -You have a decent working portable machine with amazing battery life - You can domain join your phone and you will be able to access your internal apps -Continuum will be anyway present so you can attach to other devices
