Breaking up Google and the rest of Big Tech wouldn’t be enough to fix our innovation problems

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. (Project Syndicate)—The Department of Justice’s lawsuit against Google GOOG, +5.99% may be the first salvo in a forthcoming barrage of antitrust actions directed at Big Tech. Curbing these companies’ power is one of those rare issues that receives bipartisan support on Capitol Hill. “ We can keep investing in technologies that help managers, engineers, and… Source link

Yahoo Golf Talk: Vivint Houston Open

The PGA TOUR makes a pitstop at Memorial Park Golf Course this week for the Vivint Houston Open.  Memorial Park was freshly renovated over the last two years and it’s ready for the challenge of hosting a big event.

Three par 5s should provide more scoring chances than a typical par-70 layout. Par 5s typically… Source link

Aaron Rodgers, Packers face injury-riddled 49ers

The last time these two teams met, the San Francisco 49ers rolled into the Super Bowl with a 37-20 win in the NFC championship game. Thursday’s rematch with the Green Bay Packers will look very different.  An injury-ravaged season in San Francisco got worse in Week 8 as the 49ers added quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo and All-Pro tight end George Kittle to their long-term injury list. Neither player will be on the field for a game in San Francisco that can be live-streamed on the Yahoo Sports… Source link

What’s up with the Titans?

All NFL teams lose, unless you’re the 1972 Miami Dolphins. The trick for good teams is to not go on a losing streak, or lose to a clearly inferior opponent. The Tennessee Titans did both in Week 8. A loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers two weeks ago wasn’t ideal but understandable. But losing to the Cincinnati Bengals last week was just bad, especially since the Titans never led. They faced a pair of 17-point deficits to a team that was 1-5-1 coming in. The problem has mostly been the defense…. Source link

Which Pays Its Software Engineers Higher Salaries?

When the U.S. government launched its recent anti-trust investigation into Google, it surfaced an interesting deal between the search-engine giant and Apple: In exchange for billions of dollars per year, Apple makes Google the default search engine on the iPhone and other iOS devices. (To be fair, the tech community has known about that deal for years, just not its exact size.) That deal highlighted the peculiar relationship between the companies. Although they compete on a… Source link
