The average 1 hour show is at least 700 megabytes. If you can transfer that much data over a home LAN quickly, you must have quite the amazing home LAN.
Not only that, but most Tivo hard drives are 40 gig or 80 gigs. What in the world made you think you could transfer (nearly) the entire contents of that hard drive over a network fast?
How could a company NOT fire someone who had been there for weeks (singular?) who is bad-mouthing the company online, especially once the story made CNN?
It would have harmed Google far more to keep him employed.
Later I realized, as suggested by the senior management, that a good project manager should not let that happen had he properly designed and managed the project.
This cannot be emphasized enough. The project manager needs to not only manage the people within your company and what work they're doing on the project, but also the customer and the customer's expectations.
this is probably the only interview where I've ever said, in response to a salary question, "you can't pay me what I'm worth" and meant it:)
Google was the only company that _ever_ brought me in for an interview and then didn't hire me.
Wow I can't figure out why

This is totally ridiculous, and knowing the way that HR people and bureaucracies (resulting from the combination of a travel office, differnet HR reps, technical interviewers, etc.) work, the person asking him likely had no clue what his schedule really was.
Occum's Razor. Also, what you described sounds like a way to hire total kiss-asses.
Just because a search engine can't easily crawl it doesn't mean people don't link to NYT stories all the time in blogs, IMs, etc, or read the page. This is silly.
I think that regardless of what company he worked for, most readers here would be fascinated with an internal description of the estate of the richest man in the world.
I wish the story had even more details on his house - Bill should do Cribs
Can someone explain how being able to record a television show on TiVo, and then potentially watch it from other devices, and share it with your friends or over the Internet, is in any shape or form different than recording a show with a VCR and passing the tape around to your friends?
How do you know any of it was before her son died?
If any of it was, it's not really that unlikely that he interviewed a bunch of people from Flint and one of those families had a son killed after the initial interview.
Established in 1988, the CERT® Coordination Center (CERT/CC) is a center of Internet security expertise, located at the Software Engineering Institute, a federally funded research and development center operated by Carnegie Mellon University.
I believe they just have a few partnerships with them.

that CNET comes up with a shitty article, totally ignoring Google?
...why any rational company would actually be afraid of this.
People didn't take the hyperlinking patent seriously did they?

Isn't /. a few days behind the times on this one?
The first result for "linux" is an actual page devoted to Linux this time.
That's progress, right?

Well, Windows XP's "Luna" certainly looks kiddie enough for this type of PC.
Computer Science (an academic subject) and Software Development (a business pursuit) are very different things.
I would think that all the people with CS degrees here would know that by now.
Who are the "Big 6"?
I don't see how having a CS degree and being a free thinker are mutually exclusive, btw.
Did you read the article, or even the post? I was simply reversing one of the arguments of the book's author's lawyers.
Wow, both girl.com and katie.com are truly horrible titles. Who thinks of this crap?
It's not also a violation of the domain owner's free speech rights to have to "re-title" her domain?
There's something ironic about her lawyers fighting to have the Katie.com domain so that she can promote her book about Internet predators.
Are you kidding?

Um...

I know there are some weird US CERT vs CERT issues, but this is really the same announcement twice.

Since when is CERT a part of the DHS?
