Are you trying to generate the profile or use the profile? Also, Doesn't chrome have like an 8 hour build time or something insane like that?
>>752059609
Sure Urkel.
is go faster than node?
>>752059617
Why not just use Chromium? Lighter weight and none of the Google shit added in. The only real way to know why its slow is to profile it while it's running.
Are you using an SSD?
>>752059779
For pgo im trying to generate and use, all references i've found to it are outdated, and im really in the breeze.
LTO i'm trying without pgo currently as i cant get it pgo to work at all, also using lld to link.
I have ccache so its cut down to about an hour and a half.Without ccache it was about a 4 hour build time. Im also using old hardware though so
Why do all Chromebooks seem to suck?
>>752059805
No, Go has insanely high Garbage collection CPU usage. (It just doesn't pause for that long).

>For pgo im trying to generate and use, all references i've found to it are outdated, and im really in the breeze.
So, TBH, it won't help that much. The slow parts of the code are usually the JS, which is being JIT optimized anyway.
We have special internal PGO that just works, so I am only familiar with that. Haven't tried building anything open source. Have you tried asking on the support forums? They're usually pretty helpful.
>>752060038

>>752060253
It stays soft deleted for 2 weeks. After that it will appear to be gone but it's in limbo for 2 more weeks (30 days). After that It will be permanently deleted, but it may still be on our tape backups. Those get deleted every 180 days. So, 180 days if you want to be completely sure.
A lot of people delete their account and then change their minds, so we keep it around for little while.

Not really doing it for any sane reason. Trying to compile everything i can with clang and add any optimization i can do it, even if its placebo.

>>752060743
Yeah I know the feel. It feels good to know your are running the most optimized shit you can. Likely the real reason why its hard and doesn't work is because no one really does it. I don't think Google even does it for their prebuilt binaries.
How many hours do you put in a week? I hear they work you to the ground at Google, hence why they have so many perks to attract the young crowd.
How much do you make?
>>752060095
High CPU usage != slower.
Go is considerably faster than Node, but Node is comparable because of V8's JIT compilation.
I run Go code on MIPS-LE routers and NodeJS simply doesn't work well due to RAM and threading restrictions.
Golang's usage of coroutines helps a lot.
Your choices are high memory (NodeJS) or high CPU (Go) - but Go is still slightly faster than NodeJS in sheer computational power.
>>752060887
Yes definitely. They are super duper liberal. If you so much as mention anything about genders being different, you'll be shunned, even if mgmt doesn't find out. They want to be so accommodating, they put tampons in the mens bathroom.

Notable to mention that Golang's standard library is about 8MB uncompressed.
For comparison, V8 alone (NodeJS's js engine) is 32MB uncompressed.
Just for reference in terms of overhead RAM usage.

What gender do I have to identify as to fuck your wife, your boss's wife, and the wives of all the rest of you cucks at google?

isn't google supposed to be secure?
>>752061756
You are making self driving cars better at identifying their surroundings. Also makes image search smarter, but hardly anyone uses that.
The thing about NN is that its a big red herring. ISP already charge each other by where the traffic is going. The thing that everyone is talking about today is if they can also do the same thing to regular end users like you and me.
The idea that we should allow or disallow it is kinda silly; it's already happening and has been for decades.

Hasnt been anonymouse since 2008 bruh.
Moot wasnt to big in to datamining but hiro fucking is.Everything you say is linked in to a profile on your ip which is then sold to companies. You should know how companies create profiles on you and create a living person online from it, you're from google lol

>>752063375
I'd assume Google does pretty much away with anonymity? I'm not too big on the subject, but they state in their terms and conditions that they'll create an online profile of you, your used computers and other electronic devices and your browsing behaviour and stuff. All for the sake of personalised ads, i'm sure(*cough*), but i guess that data can also be accessed and analysed by other algorithms and humans?

2 if die how does google figure that out and how long do they keep my accounts? i use everything google, drive, email, photos, phone, web, etc. if one day all access to my accounts ends how long until they deem i'm dead without any relative contacting them (i have none)

For newgrad hires: Good school, lots of buzz words. Put your Senior level classes up there. Link to your Github account.
For previously employed, years of experience is a big one. Personally, I look to see if they say they know a programming language, and then grill them in the first five minutes about it. Too many people lie. If you put it on there and I know about it, you can be sure it's going to come up.
>>752071237
Projects you do for fun. The idea is, you want programming to be natural to you. Imagine if someone said the only time they cum is when they were paid to come. They never jerked off on their own volition. What would you think of such a person?
>>752071342
Supporting that costs money. A ton. Did you see where I posted how much comp they give us? Imagine paying 5 people that to keep flash support alive. A million dollars a year, easy. Whose going to pay?
>>752070492
That's the line that the issue mentioned they changed.
Did you even read it?
It said that when changing that line, everything fucking breaks.

How long until Google stops being Goolag?

So you're admitting you're pretty much unremarkable and equivalent to an random Indian street shitter with a B.S. and a H1-B visa? Purpose of this thread is what then?
>>752071780
Oh, cool, thanks. And does Google hire exclusively programmers?
>>752071503
Nope.
>>752071677
Sorry can't hook you up.
>>752071914

Google might, but the CIA obviously doesn't. And Google's not trying that hard to stop them.
>>752071848
Sorry, I didn't really read it. Asian characters make my eyes gloss over. Maybe this line needs to be updated too?

>>752071901
Not familiar with that criticism. Can you elaborate?
>>752071914
>So you're admitting you're pretty much unremarkable
Yeah. Are you remarkable? This thread is for people to find out shit that they can't normally. The big reveal.
> random Indian street shitter with a B.S. and a H1-B visa? Purpose of this thread is what then?
No, they are several leagues below. They have more soot in their air than China, why would they have internet or computer ability? The only ones who do, leave.
>>752071962
Sorry, but yeah. (Oh and PMs. You can do that too). Once in a blue moon they hire quants.

That line is for the DLS loader, changing it will make it not load any .DLS files since it will index more than 16 and get an ArrayOutOfBounds exception.
The issue is somewhere in their Swing code.
>>752072330
He's misrepresenting himself as somehow knowing all of what Google does. He doesn't. He's a kid that just got a job there. Don't put any real stock into what this guy is saying. He knows about the tiny sliver of stuff going on in his project, that's all.
Have you seen any massive security issues on production servers/software?
>>752072049
And how good it feels. Humans need it as much as food and water.
>>752072330
What are you talking about? Haven't you noticed that Let's Encrypt, is sponsored by Google? Or that several encryption algorithms are published by Google? Or that Google forces SSL on all their sites? Or that Google has end to end encryption on everything since the NSA hack was found out?
You haven't done a lick of research.
>>752058521
Do all of the asians smell bad?
Are there any universities that google hires a lot from?
>>752072442
Sorry, not from the states, PMs??
>>752072513
That's not actually the line. It's "Don't be evil". Subtle difference.
>>752072586
Sorry, I'm a little too buzzed to do anything more than grep their code. I don't have my IDE and debugger set up to step through that.
>>752072591
I agree. There are 70,000 employees there now, and no one knows everything that goes on. Were you expecting Matt Cutts?
>>752072603
Yes. We find them funny. They are usually fixed before other people find them out.
>>752072692
The Snowden documents show that Google has been working with the CIA. The encryption bullshit is just for show. Also, if you provide the encryption keys to the CIA, all that shit is as good as transparent.
Do you honestly think that Google isn't helping the CIA? Even though it's documented?
Any secrets about SEO you want to discuss?
So much cpu.

Stop censoring the internet. (((Google))) needs to get anti - trust lawsuits up the ass. Fuck this company, it is a threat to freedom.
>>752072739
Hardly. Asian people don't sweat much, and the sweat they do have is missing a protein that is normally found in other humans. Would sniff again. Middle eastern people have no clue what a shower is, or how to first world.
>>752072817
Yeah, local ones. Stanford and Berkeley are the big ones. You can get a master degree from them if you want a stepping stone in.
>>752072834
Program Managers. They are technical people, but do things let get customer requirements and set the direction for the team. They often glue teams together.
How much control do you (Employees) have over search rankings? Could you blacklist a site personally?
His mom and dad are impressed that he got hired along with about ten thousand other EEs, but among those in PA he's a typical drone. Can't believe you all are falling for this. I guess waitresses he orders food from after impressed as well when he goes out of his way to tell them this because they think they can use him for living expenses because everyone else is being squeezed out of here.
>>752073068
Does google hire anyone other than programmers? (excluding the obvious like lawyers, managers, janitors)
>>752072904
you use an ide. fucking hobbled wow!
>>752072922
I don't have any way to convince you, but let me say I periodically work with the security team, and they do not have holes. As a second point, recall that Silicon Valley execs hate Trump and his whole administration. Why would they work with them? Even when it was Obama, why would they give it away for free? Don't you recall that Google choose to shutdown in China rather than allows them access to their datacenters? They lost a ton of money because they had principles.
>>752072941
Sorry, don't know much about it.
>>752073036
Who's censoring the internet? Where? With what?
If you program in Java you are a focken pleb.
>>752073068

Don't know how much individuals get to control. I think a few people control it since they been at the company for 18 years. I can't. I can't look at any user data either or I would be fired. They are very serious about locking down access.
>>752072954
What mean?
>>752073292
Typically not. The only exception are Program Managers. Pretty much everyone else is a contractor (like for food services and such).
>>752073345
Yes I do. It's a nice thing. You should try it.
Is the sjw infestation there really as bad as people say it is?
Was your major software engineering in college?
>>752073416
I do remember that, but didn't they open back up in China eventually?
Also, uh... You know that they definitely don't have principles any more. Eric Schmidt when he was at Alphabet ran a secret military-like team and sent them on ops into the Middle East. He also worked very closely politically with the Obama administration.
Also, don't forget the Wikileaks where he admitted that he wanted to use the resources at Google (read: their data) to target certain people politically to help Hillary win. The email was verified with SPF and signed so it's authentic.
Sounds like you're the one who hasn't done the research.
Why does your corporation keep censoring conservatives?
>>752073475
We're all plebs down here. Google is about 50% C++ and 40% Java. Java runs the web.
>>752073589
What would you prefer happen? What would convince you? Even if they did what you wanted, you wouldn't believe it.
>>752073642
training wheels on bicycles are nice things too and make it easier to prevent falling down but usually only children or their experiential equivalent require them.

The IDEs may be integrated into their manger management system, so they use them to babysit their employees. Monitoring keystrokes per second, productivity, etc. Some companies use it for employee evaluations and productivity ranking. It's not a good company to work for that actually does this.
OP if you still here
aren't the kikes who run jewgle afraid of how toxic their brand has gotten?
>>752073786
Yes it is. Have to be most careful when talking with coworkers. It's best to not discuss anything not work related.
>>752073894
Yes.
>>752073899
They have a eng office there, but no datacenters.
I can only sya what I have seen since my time starting there. No one wants to pass off control of data to any outsiders. The culture is "protect the user data at all costs".
One other thing: Larry Page originally refused to fund the search engine with ads. It was Susan Wojcicki that pushed ads hard. I think the leadership now just wants to make a mark rather than make money. Just what I have seen.
>>752073901
because conservatives don't get as much ad revenue? I don't know. I get the feeling you think there is some evil cabal sitting in a dark room plotting how the internet will be used to enslave humanity. While that would be a good movie, you forget that it is random people just punching in their 9-6 and want a paycheck.
do you ever get embarressed to tell people you work at google
>>752059334
Good project but super bad security practice.
>>752073934
Have you actually measured that you are less productive in an IDE? Most of programming isn't typing, it's thinking.
>>752074399
They aren't afraid. The stock price says so. They also periodically run surveys to see what people think of it. They are usually very positive.
>>752074436
idiots like this used the defense at nuremberg that they were just following orders. they just drove the train filled with people to gas chambers and didn't actually do the central planning so what's the big deal? there can't be anything wrong if i just profit from being a cog in the machine right? what's your problem with that you tinfoil hat?
do you use any other search engine aside from google
>>752058521
Why isn't there a catchy name for google assistant like siri, bixby, and alexa?
>>752074522
Yes, especially when I'm in the city not at work. Most of the SF locals hate Google and flick off the buses that drive through. I usually hide my colors when I'm not in the office.
Also, more tits, or more ass?
>>752074674
That's funny. You're considered a real thinker there huh?
>>752058521
How does it feel to have helped make the biggest search engine on the internet
>>752074726
And Godwin's Law is invoked. If you ask the random eng to do something morally suspect, they're going to not do it and change teams or quit.
>>752074777
Nice trips. I use duck duck go when I'm looking up bad things. Somethings are too dangerous to associate with, even if they aren't directly bad.
>>752074812
Because Google fucking sucks at naming things. Almost every project has an awesome internal name, but they water it down when publicizing it. Very irritating. There was even a project that was a reference to rape, but they eventually changed the name.
>>752074522
he name drops it non stop where he thinks he can get away with it, you can 100% be sure of that. see this thread?
>>752074839
which is why he's here desperately seeking adulation. he's totally hung up on the notion that he should be important but people in the know, in the area where he's no better than anyone else they treat him like the mediocre person he is. he comes to a weaboo anime shitposting site of unemployed/students to try and feel accomplished.
>>752074436
The conservative censorship is pretty well documented. External contractors are used to provide rating services for Google. These contractors go through search results and rate pages for the relevance, adjusting their ranking by hand in the Google database. They also listen to Google voice requests (I guess it's called Google Now? I don't know they keep changing the name). The contracting companies are commonly sent requests by Google under the table to rate common Conservative news sources as "fake news" and lower their search results.
This is well documented. There are several authentic leaked documents to this effect, as well. Also, I've talked to some of the raters personally myself.
>>752058521
How many of your colleagues own a Tesla?
How many of your colleagues have come from Amazon, Facebook, Uber, etc? Compare google to these places
>>752074854
Yes. Consider the following:
You need to optimize a program to use very little memory, even at the cost of increased CPU. What can you change in your program without breaking backwards compatibility? Is it safe to turn a hashmap into a linked list, or were people depending on the iteration order? Is it okay to move to an O(n) algorithm because the data is small or not? What would happen if the data got big?
What's faster, an immutable but shared object or a synchronized but mutable one? Can you cut down the amount of data validation you do to speed things up?
Most of those aren't so much about banging out code. They are about reasoning.
>>752074975
Feels meh. I'm more happy about the fat paycheck I get. I mainly just do it so I can have fun outside of work.
>>752075201
Uhhh.... details on Project Rape? lol
>>752058558
its moot fuck them
>>752075581
Any specific place where u got the pictures??
how old is OP? how long have you been at Google? Is Google your first software job? Ever thought of applying to another competing company?
>>752075314
>This is well documented. There are several authentic leaked documents to this effect, as well. Also, I've talked to some of the raters personally myself.
If I were making the search rankings and handling voice queries, personally I would make the entire thing based on machine learning and skip paying people. Human beings are way too expensive to have. That would be millions of dollars spent on making a few hundred thousand in ad revenue. It wouldn't work.
Humans can't parse news as fast as it breaks. They can't rank things as fast as a computer can. They aren't objective (as you point out). They don't speak all the languages. They can't judge what's import from a 1000 news sources in half a second.
It's crazy to think that Google would spend money on expensive and inefficient humans to do any of that. If you were running the company, would you?
>>752075450
Lot's. They have parking space way up close to the building where the chargers are. Main benefit.
>>752058521
What the source codes for everything google does?
>>752075609
It was a rather boring project, just with a racy name. Just an example.
>>752075977
From /hr/, about 8 years ago.
>>752076081
I'm 18 to 34 years old. I've been here for about 4 years. Google is not my first, and not my last. I think about Netflix, because I think they would be fun to work for.
>>752076142
That's exactly what they're doing, though... Search for "google search raters". I also have some of their internal documents (instruction manuals), but I can't release them. It's far less innocuous than it sounds. They're molding their search results for political purposes.
I know you work there so you don't want to hate them, but that's just how it is. The mid-level people, and even lots of the top-level people, either don't care or are just normal people.
It's a small group of people at the top with power, who want more power. That's always how it starts. These people ruin it for the rest of us.
how percentage of your take home salary goes toward rent?
>>752076481
At what age did you start learning programming??
>>752076254
Gotta be more specific.
>>752076582
I don't doubt that what you are saying is at least somewhat correct, but since I don't work on that stuff directly, I can't really corroborate it. You are saying that Google Is paying people to give slanted website ratings for a political purpose.
I also recognize that its less easy to hate on the company that pays the bills. I guess I don't have a good answer for you. (or myself).
>>752076637
After tax? about 15%
I want to work in AI research but I'm interested in hardware. Would a computer engineer (not a software engineer) have a place in a company like Google?
>>752077043
14 I think? College was really where I learned how to make real programs though.
Thinking of starting? It's pretty fun, even if you don't do it for a day job.
>>752058521
Why do you fire engineers for stating facts? Cuck?
>>752077068
>You are saying that Google Is paying people to give slanted website ratings for a political purpose.
Yep, that's exactly what I'm saying.
It's also just the general culture there. It's going to attract some crazies, and those crazies are obviously going to be "liberal".
There's also just normal internal politics. I know some people who worked at Google high up. I'm originally from Silicon Valley, and I'm also a software engineer. I know some things about the founders and how they stopped some internal projects just because their wife was working on something similar.
It's a big company. A lot of shit happens.
>>752077269
Im thinking, but im 21 with a business degree and 0 experience with coding, i think im kinda late to the party..
>>752077239
yes, Most of the datacenter hardware is custom made. Including the TPUs which are used for machine learning. Sounds like you would like it.
>>752077330
Alas, it was me. It was my plan all along to fire people for stating facts. Ever since day one my plan has been breeding distrust and sewing sjw agenda.
Blame the fucking CEO Sundar Pichai. He was also the one that killed Reader.

Have you worked with James Damore before? What is everyones opinion of him over there?
>>752077677
It's me, the AI guy.
Thanks for your answer. So the hardware is designed in-house? Google doesn't produce its own hardware, does it? Also do you have any idea how much a position like that would pay?

he only claimed that women choose to enter into programming less
but yeah I would say that it would be unsurprising if there a less women who are *very* good at programming, but any women at google currently probably are just as good as any man at google... theres just less of them
>>752078344
I know one girl at Google who's a programmer. She's a rabid feminist, and knows jack all about programming.
>>752078344

Is there any way that we as consumers can help Google by hurting comcast or time warner?
>>752078843
Apparently C++ and Java
Im going to a tech school in Texas, my major is "game development" But its really more about the programming side of things. We're diving hard into C++ and I'm learning some python on the side. Would it be better for me to get some solid programming experience at a company before approaching google? My main goal at the start of this program was to work at pic related but now im not sure, as it is I signed for the game dev course on a gamble
>>752078983

What's the general vibe at Google about the impending threat of the FCC canning Net Neutrality?
What are some projects you have worked on?
>>752079366
Best question
>>752078014
Most of it, yeah. A lot of off-the-shelf hardware isn't fast enough for them.
>>752078093
None, because I was an idiot in college. I should have been mining that. Hindsight is 20/20 and all.

Doesn't really matter what he claimed, it's what people thought he claimed. It's shitty, but you don't have free speech at work.
I'd like to remind everyone that the most reviled programming language in history, COBOL, was made by a woman.
>>752078843
Being able to understand complex problems and come up with a solution. There are often a lot of restrictions on what is technically feasible, so you have to work with what you have.
Being able to quickly understand the problem too, which is how the interviews are designed.

A guy on my last team started off at a vidya firm and he said he hated it. They forced him to work very long hours, especially right before their release. After the release they fired everyone. Extremely stressful job.
The point is, apply to both. If you need to get exp, then do it, but don't prematurely exclude yourself. If you do get hired, you will get a shit ton of C++ experience.
>>752079366
Tired. This happened last time with SOPA and PIPA, but it was draining. There isn't nearly as much push back this time.
>>752079368
Can't tell you boss, it would very quickly narrow me down.
>>752080072
Because there are armies of other programmers trying to mess up the search rankings all over the world. It's a very tough problem to solve.
Also, not searching for black dicks helps.
>>752080115
Disable the flash preloader, it's in the User control panel.
>>752080314
Never searched for black dicks it's just there in advertising also searched for "how to kill yourself 101" no help but black dick there casually no jokes it's just on side of the page wtf it made me stop searching
>>752080314
Also one last question? Why the fuck Android have ocd of updating every few hours? Wtf it's like programmer are bots mf updates 8 times a day. Some of us are faping what you people can not see me ruined the moment
>>752080196
thanks, and thats what ive been hearing, most game devs burn out after 3 years. As it is about a third of the people I started with dropped because of false expectations. And it seems most of the people I talk to in industry hate it and become sysadmins or cybersecurity for large companys. How far will c++ take me?
>I once spoke to a dev from RockStar games and he said that he once had to spend 2 weeks at the office without going home and he kept a literal piss jug by his desk

Even though I'm ChemE, I just find it fascinating "what if I ever interviewed, there could be awkward conversations based on that one-off search I did"
But, judging from all you said, that doesn't happen.
I actually have curiosities if Google can connect the dots between two different IPs that you use based on your search history/youtube watch history- without ever directly logging on to your profile.
>>752085072
Yeah it was her but I didn't remember her name until looking at the article lol. Tell some tales of your interactions with the software security teams there.
>>752085389
That never happens, and I would know, I regularly interview people. They keep data siloed. Usually, the only thing that has access to your data is the program itself. It's almost never the people actually work on the program.
For example if I tried to look someone up I would be immediately flagged for doing so, even if was for a project I was working on. You have to explain why you needed to access that data, or else you get kicked.
>>752085424
One time they were trying to figure out how to get past this door in a data center. It was badge access only from one side, but motion activated from the other. They took a big balloon and stuffed it under the door crack and then inflated it from the other side. It was enough to make sensor trigger and the door opened.
