Taleo makes a great job making it as painful as possible to search and apply for jobs. I find it pretty funny a "hack" of how to look through taleo listings is in an article about unadvertised jobs.

I've been working on another one of those apps. It's a real pain in the ass to get accurate location. Both NER or regex location extraction and geocoding services can be slow and inaccurate in variety of ways. The way that brought me the most success is regex and a tabulated file with city names, coordinates and some other info. In either case, there's manual labor involved in finding false positives and negatives.

After the fact you can try to make it sound however you like. But when your option is to get off the lawn or get a bullet in the head, it sounds entirely different. The release is loaded with statements making it sound like he "deserved it" and some empty "didn't intend to" is worthless.

Gmail.com was down 14 years ago

Oh that's what happened. This is a pretty unexpected oversight from a company that tests their software so extensively to have browsers crash because an email service/sync service is down.
