    Google is the dominate search because it is just a lot better. That was true over Altavista and true today. Saying anything otherwise is ridiculous. Heck MS owns PC and down to tin…

    Not true in Mobile. Bing is not very good in comparison to Google. Then with MS down to 6.5% share in the US for all devices it will just get worse. http://gs.statcounter.com/searc…

    I suspect Google wants to keep it away from MS more than anything. With Bing down to 2.5% market share they do not have the revs to invest. That is why Bing is so bad compared to G…

    This is not true and easy to see with Internet usage. See how iOS is flat and Android keeps growing. https://tctechcrunch2011.files.wordpress.com/2017/04/statcou...

    Look at what happened when Firefox switched default search. The default search on Firefox is now worth far less than it was before as they lost huge amounts of browser market share…

    Agree. Everyone I interact with it is all TF. Even my son at University they are using TensorFlow. Hype or simply better at this point does not really matter as it is simply self f…

    Actually Chromebooks have already passed the Mac in the US and growing at 38% YoY versus the Mac is flat. https://www.theverge.com/2016/5/19/11711714/chromebooks-outs... Chromebook…

    Interesting contrast to Google deciding to leave China. Apple has also chosen to use a China gov controlled cloud provider.

    You can get a Acer 14 refurb for under $200 which is a good dev machine using Crouton with ChromeOS. Nothing else is going to be able to touch this. Sounds like you are just not up…

    You really do no understand what Google is doing or how it works. The article does a poor job explaining. It is more like a virtual circuit switch network. It enables far less cost…

    I would argue the Bitcoin author being secret has created more intrigue and possibly more noterriery. It is believed to be Nick Szabo, btw. There is also a security issue as though…

    YouTube doubled in hours of video watched last year going from 500m to 1 billion hours daily. FB total video is 100m hours. So Google added 5x FB total. Netflix was about 128 milli…

    But Google is also 22 years younger? Google passed $100b market cap at age 7 and Apple at 29. Google other as in non ad revenues in 2016 at age 18 is greater than all of Apple reve…

    Google broke $100B market cap at seven years old. Apple mail did it at 29 years old. Google never has declined for a single quarter YoY since day 1. Not a single time. Apple had $2…
