"sundar android" doesn't have the juice and you know it
2 11Andy Android does though
Android Rubin also works I guess
3 7Sergey Google left his day-to-day role at the company, though
2 8wait a sec we don't even need to make things up for this joke, larry pagerank exists
1 10learning that pagerank is named not because it ranks pages but because it's named after larry rocked me to my core
4 7 20suddenly reminded that you forced me to realize this about Bloom Filters a few days ago with that skoot
1 9oh god that too, I'd forgotten

2 3depends, EU has the "regulatory superpower" effect where both causes countries to adopt similar laws, and causes companies to apply EU law as standard (so they don't need to bother with multiple sets of rules). But it won't automatically apply, no
3Not since Brexit I would assume
