- Our focus on pay equityhttp://feedproxy.google.com/~r/blogspot/MKuf/~3/YGnoziA9-Pw/<div class="block-paragraph"><div class="rich-text"><p>Pay equity is a huge issue, not just for Silicon Valley companies, but across every industry in every country.</p><p>It’s very important to us that men and women who join Google in the same role are compensated on a level playing field, when they start and throughout their careers here.<br/></p><p>That’s why, in the hopes of encouraging a broader conversation around the pay gap - and how companies can fight it - we shared our <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/on-leadership/wp/2016/04/29/how-the-whats-your-current-salary-question-hurts-the-gender-pay-gap/?utm_term=.21e44c19cda6">top-level analysis publicly in 2016</a>. Google conducts rigorous, annual analyses so that our pay practices remain aligned with our commitment to equal pay practices.<br/></p><p>So we were quite surprised when a representative of the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs at the U.S. Department of Labor (OFCCP) accused us of not compensating women fairly. We were taken aback by this assertion, which came without any supporting data or methodology. The OFCCP representative claimed to have reached this conclusion even as the OFCCP is seeking thousands of employee records, including contact details of our employees, in addition to the hundreds of thousands of documents we’ve already produced in response to 18 different document requests.<br/></p><p>The fact is that our annual analysis is extremely scientific and robust. It relies on the same confidence interval that is used in medical testing (>95%). And we have made the methodology <a href="https://rework.withgoogle.com/guides/pay-equity/steps/introduction/">available to other businesses</a> who want to test their own compensation practices for equal pay.<br/></p></div></div>
<div class="block-paragraph"><div class="rich-text"><h3><b>So how does it work?</b></h3><p>In short, each year, we suggest an amount for every employee’s new compensation (consisting of base salary, bonus and equity) based on role, job level, job location as well as current and recent performance ratings. This suggested amount is “blind” to gender; the analysts who calculate the suggested amounts do not have access to employees’ gender data. An employee’s manager has limited discretion to adjust the suggested amount, providing they cite a legitimate adjustment rationale.<br/></p><p>Our pay equity model then looks at employees in the same job categories, and analyzes their compensation to confirm that the adjusted amount shows no statistically significant differences between men’s and women’s compensation.<br/></p></div></div>

- With these Pixel tips, your photos will bloom brighthttp://feedproxy.google.com/~r/blogspot/MKuf/~3/_Lasy0u3YQ0/<div class="block-paragraph"><div class="rich-text"><p>Spring has sprung, and so have desert wildflowers, daffodils along the highway, and even the tulips you picked up at your florist. Everything seems to be in bloom—and everyone is sharing photos of flowers on social media.</p><p>Your petal pics should be the best of the bunch. So with help from Brittany Asch of <a href="https://www.instagram.com/brrch_floral/?hl=en">BRRCH Floral</a>, we’ve gathered a few tips to help you take, store and share the prettiest photos of poppies, petunias, phlox or whatever blossoms you love best—with help from your Pixel, Phone by Google, of course!</p><ol><li><b>Lighting is key. </b>Check your exposure to ensure you're giving your plants and flowers the right amount of light to see the details. On Pixel, you can easily brighten or darken your shot to get the perfect amount of exposure. Tap the camera, the slide your finger up or down to adjust the exposure depending on the lighting conditions.<br/></li><li><b>Consider your frame. </b>Take note of the surrounding area (is it worthy of the ‘gram?). If it’s not, zoom in. If it is, capture a wider angle that shows the full view. On Pixel, you can use a compositional tool to help frame your shot. Look for the grid in the top right of the camera—your arrangement should be at the center of the grid. We recommend 3 x 3 as a ratio for flowers.</li><li><b>That Lens Blur, tho. </b>This Pixel feature will make your photos look professional. Start by clicking on the menu bar at the top left; you’ll see the Lens Blur option second from the bottom. Click on it, take your photo and slowly raise your phone to capture the perfect lens blur. After you snap a photo you can also edit the placement and degree of lens blur. This is a great for up-close shots!</li><li><b>Grab a friend. </b>Have him or her pose with your flowers to bring them to life and add depth to the photo.</li><li><b>Take as many as you want! </b>With Pixel, you get unlimited high-quality storage with Google Photos for free, so you can try out as many shots as you need without worrying about filling up your phone with dud buds.</li><li><b>Find ‘em later. </b>Just type “flowers” into the search bar in Google Photos for a bouquet of photos just waiting to be shared.</li></ol></div></div>

Its image recognition capabilities detect whether the image is in fact of a single face, and whether the face is appropriately centered in the frame. It also determines where on the frame the filter can add wildflowers, so that no one’s face is covered.</p><p>When done correctly, planting wildflowers can be a simple way to help declining worldwide bee populations. Likewise, using the Cloud Vision API is a simple approach to the difficult task of machine-assisted image recognition. Cloud Vision API provides developers with a drop-dead easy way to access the state-of-the-art machine learning models that Google artificial intelligence researchers have developed over decades. Cloud Vision API can easily detect objects, people, landmarks, logos and text, and describes those attributes in a web-friendly JSON format.

<p>Apple has fallen to fifth place in a <a href="http://www.laptopmag.com/articles/laptop-brand-ratings"><em>Laptop Mag </em>survey</a> of the best and worst current laptop brands after previously taking the top spot for several years. Factors like premium price points and limited port options contribute to Apple’s overall drop in the results, although Apple’s quality tech support is a redeeming factor, the survey says.</p>

What’s next for Apple Displays now that the company is back in the game?
https://9to5mac.com/2017/04/10/whats-next-apple-displays/
Mon, 10 Apr 2017 14:03:53 +0000
<div class="feat-image"><img src="https://9to5mac.files.wordpress.com/2017/04/apple-5k-display.jpg?quality=82&strip=all&strip=all&w=1600&h=1000" /></div>
<p>Many of us were deeply disappointed when Apple appeared to be exiting the display business <a href="https://9to5mac.com/2016/06/23/apple-discontinues-thunderbolt-display/" target="_blank">last summer</a>.</p>
<p>Not just because we want matching aesthetics and the reassurance you get with an all-Apple setup, but also because there was no obvious third-party replacement. All Apple said at the time was that ‘there are a number of great third-party options available for Mac users,’ but without pointing to anything in particular.</p>
<p>When the company finally did make an official recommendation in the form of the LG UltraFine 4K and 5K monitors, it wasn’t exactly a great one. Not only are the monitors extremely un-Apple-like in their grey plastic cases, but a serious technical fault <a href="https://9to5mac.com/2017/01/30/lg-ultrafine-5k-display-router-disconnecting/" target="_blank">first identified by us</a> led to the <a href="https://9to5mac.com/2017/02/13/lg-ultrafine-5k-display-apple-store/" target="_blank">temporary withdrawal</a> of the product until <a href="https://9to5mac.com/2017/02/03/lg-fixes-wifi-interference-problems-with-ultrafine-usb-c-5k-display-new-units-unaffected/" target="_blank">LG fixed</a> the Wi-Fi interference problem. All in all, it was a mess.</p>
<p>The good news is that this mess has likely played a role in Apple doing a U-turn and making plans to get back into the display business …</p>

- Exploring the mysteries of Go with AlphaGo and China's top playershttp://feedproxy.google.com/~r/blogspot/MKuf/~3/QQ3vXUp04fo/<div class="block-paragraph"><div class="rich-text"><p>Just over a year ago, we saw a major milestone in the field of artificial intelligence: <a href="https://blog.google/topics/machine-learning/what-we-learned-in-seoul-with-alphago/">DeepMind’s AlphaGo took on and defeated one of the world’s top Go players</a>, the legendary Lee Sedol. Even then, we had no idea how this moment would affect the 3,000 year old game of Go and the growing global community of devotees to this beautiful board game.</p>Instead of diminishing the game, as some feared, artificial intelligence (A.I.) has actually made human players stronger and more creative. It’s humbling to see how pros and amateurs alike, who have pored over every detail of AlphaGo’s innovative game play, have actually learned new knowledge and strategies about perhaps the most studied and contemplated game in history. You can read more about some of these creative strategies in <a href="http://www.deepmind.com/blog/innovations-alphago">this blog post</a>.</div></div>

<p>Apple has slowly been cracking down on 32-bit iOS apps, but it appears that it will make a drastic change come this fall. According to prominent developer Steven Troughton-Smith, Apple will drop support for 32-bit apps altogether with iOS 11. This means that many legacy apps will no longer function at all.</p>

Legacy web apps in the enterprise
http://blogs.windows.com/msedgedev/2017/04/07/legacy-web-apps-enterprise/
Fri, 07 Apr 2017 17:00:22 +0000
Migrating legacy web apps to modern standards can be both costly and time consuming. IT departments are generally cost centers, and it makes sense for enterprises to want to maximize the ROI on their existing LOB apps. Many of these sites may continue to exist without being upgraded for a while yet, and it’s important […]

- The High Five: baseball and (maybe) an extinct tiger are back againhttp://feedproxy.google.com/~r/blogspot/MKuf/~3/AAm-wObnk98/<div class="block-paragraph"><div class="rich-text"><p>This week tiger aficionados got a curveball, a Pepsi ad struck out and a Supreme Court nomination made it to the final inning. Oh, and Major League Baseball is back for the season. Here’s a look at five of the top trending Google searches from the week of April 3.</p></div></div>
<div class="block-paragraph"><div class="rich-text"><h3>Play ball!</h3><p>Sports fans stepped up to the search plate this week. With baseball season now officially underway, fans were eager to find out how their teams were doing on Opening Day. Red Sox, Cubs, Orioles and Cardinals scores were the most searched.</p></div></div>
<div class="block-paragraph"><div class="rich-text"><h3>Soda ad canned</h3>This week, there was backlash against Pepsi’s new ad featuring model Kendall Jenner. Many called the ad “tone deaf” in light of recent protests and the political climate. Searchers were curious about which advertising agency was behind the ad, and asked “why did Pepsi apologize?” and “why did Pepsi pull the ad?” </div></div>
<div class="block-paragraph"><div class="rich-text"><h3>Extinct … we think? </h3>An animal strongly resembling the Tasmanian tiger, which was thought to be extinct, was sighted this week—and experts and scientists are in an uproooooaaaarrr. Now people want to know “What year did a Tasmanian tiger become extinct?” (answer: 1936) and “Is it possible that Tasmanian tigers still exist?” (answer: TBD). </div></div>

<div class="block-paragraph"><div class="rich-text"><h3>Going nuclear </h3>Today Judge Neil Gorsuch was confirmed as the 113th justice of the Supreme Court. Leading up to the confirmation, there was a lot of talk of the “nuclear option.” The term is still a mystery to many, who searched to find out “When was the last time the nuclear option was used?” and “Who came up with the nuclear option?” </div></div>
<div class="block-paragraph"><div class="rich-text"><h3>And the winner is… </h3>Nominations for MTV Movie and TV awards (that’s right, TV is included for the first time this year!) were announced this week. Of the nominated movies and TV shows, “Get Out” and “Atlanta” were most searched. People were curious about who’s hosting this year’s show and the award categories—so if you have strong feelings about this year’s “Tearjerker,” or “Best Fight Against the System,” cast your vote before May 7. </div></div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/blogspot/MKuf/~4/AAm-wObnk98" height="1" width="1" alt=""/>Fri, 07 Apr 2017 17:00:00 +0000Fri, 07 Apr 2017 17:00:00 +0000The Official Google Blog

- Fact Check now available in Google Search and News around the worldhttp://feedproxy.google.com/~r/blogspot/MKuf/~3/Wj6QdOemzao/<div class="block-paragraph"><div class="rich-text"><p>Google was built to help people find useful information by surfacing the great content that publishers and sites create. This access to high quality information is what drives people to use the web and for contributors to continue to engage and invest in it.</p></div></div>
<div class="block-paragraph"><div class="rich-text"><p>However, with thousands of new articles published online every minute of every day, the amount of content confronting people online can be overwhelming. And unfortunately, not all of it is factual or true, making it hard for people to distinguish fact from fiction. That’s why last October, along with our partners at Jigsaw, we <a href="https://blog.google/topics/journalism-news/labeling-fact-check-articles-google-news/">announced</a> that in a few countries we would start enabling publishers to show a “Fact Check” tag in Google News for news stories. This label identifies articles that include information fact checked by news publishers and fact-checking organizations.</p></div></div>
<div class="block-paragraph"><div class="rich-text"><p>After assessing feedback from both users and publishers, we’re making the Fact Check label in Google News available everywhere, and expanding it into Search globally in all languages. For the first time, when you conduct a search on Google that returns an authoritative result containing fact checks for one or more public claims, you will see that information clearly on the search results page. The snippet will display information on the claim, who made the claim, and the fact check of that particular claim.</p></div></div>

These fact checks are not Google’s and are presented so people can make more informed judgements. Even though differing conclusions may be presented, we think it’s still helpful for people to understand the degree of consensus around a particular claim and have clear information on which sources agree. As we make fact checks more visible in Search results, we believe people will have an easier time reviewing and assessing these fact checks, and making their own informed opinions.</p></div></div>

- Système U connects supermarket workers with Chrome and G Suitehttp://feedproxy.google.com/~r/blogspot/MKuf/~3/0fUO2Ky9dhU/<div class="block-paragraph"><div class="rich-text"><p><i>Editor’s note: Today’s blog post comes from Philippe Bonnet, G Suite Advisor and Senior Consultant at <a href="https://www.magasins-u.com/accueil">Système U</a>, a cooperative organization of 1,500 independent supermarkets across France. Système U began as a bread cooperative founded in Western France in 1894, before its creation in 1983. The company adopted <a href="https://enterprise.google.com/chrome/chrome-browser/">Google Chrome browser</a> and <a href="https://gsuite.google.com/together/">G Suite</a> in 2013 to save time for each cooperative team and to allow supermarket employees to work together more efficiently.</i></p><p></p><p>Most of Système U’s 60,000 employees interact with customers throughout the work day. In Paris, they roam store aisles helping customers find the groceries they need. In Clermont l'Herault in the South, they may be unloading deliveries. Or in Mulhouse in the East, they might be designing and setting up store displays. What they have in common is that they usually don’t sit in front of a computer all day, nor are they IT experts. Any communication and collaboration tools need to fit the way they serve customers—which is why we chose Chrome browser and G Suite.</p></div></div>

<div class="block-paragraph"><div class="rich-text"><p>Before we switched to Chrome and G Suite, employees in our 1,500 stores—from large hypermarkets in big cities to small stores in rural areas—used many different email and productivity tools and web browsers. This was also true for employees like me at our corporate headquarters in Rungis, near Paris or at our IT headquarters in Carquefou, near Nantes. Some of us used Outlook for email, some used GroupWise. Management employees couldn’t easily access their email when they traveled out of the office, so they couldn’t keep their projects operating smoothly from the road.</p><p>Most employees used Internet Explorer for web access, but not necessarily the same versions. Both office and store employees use web-based applications for the retail industry. Every time a new version of IE was released, the IT team had to spend many hours making sure the apps were compatible with the updated browsers across all versions. IE’s roadmap also wasn’t very clear to our developers; we didn’t know when updates would occur, and optimizing apps to work with IE was time-consuming and expensive. </p>In 2013, we began our move to the cloud, and specifically Gmail and Chrome. We wanted to be in the cloud where we wouldn’t have to worry about adding servers to manage email, and employees could access their messages from anywhere, whether walking through stores or commuting to work. We made Chrome our official browser company-wide, and it’s the only browser we now support, which makes our IT team’s job much easier. It’s a much more transparent and flexible browser—we can choose when and how we receive updates and security fixes, so we know what’s coming and when.</div></div>

<div class="block-paragraph"><div class="rich-text"><p>We also made the decision to build the apps used by our employees so that they are compatible with <a href="https://enterprise.google.com/chrome/chrome-browser/">Chrome</a>, even as the browser is updated. This is another way we help both employees and IT staff save time, since users don’t need to worry if their everyday apps will work with the browser.</p><p>Now that my technical colleagues and I spend less time trying to make apps function with a browser, we have more time for long-term projects, such as rolling out other <a href="https://gsuite.google.com/together/">G Suite products</a> such as Google Drive, Google Slides, and G+. We just wrapped up a pilot project in nine stores with Google Drive, and employees are very enthusiastic about keeping documents in a central place where their co-workers can share them to keep projects moving along at a steady pace. Our 2017 plan is to deploy Google Drive company-wide.</p><p>Système U employees work hard enough without asking them to troubleshoot email or app problems. Any collaboration and email tools we provide to them need to be easy to use right away, without extensive training or ramp-up time. Employees don’t need to be tied to their computers, and they can spend more time doing what they do best—meeting and helping customers face to face in the supermarket aisles.</p><p><br/></p></div></div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/blogspot/MKuf/~4/0fUO2Ky9dhU" height="1" width="1" alt=""/>Thu, 06 Apr 2017 17:00:00 +0000Thu, 06 Apr 2017 17:00:00 +0000The Official Google Blog

She’s helping large companies, especially in industries like healthcare, financial services and retail, solve complex business problems using the cloud.</i></p><p><b>Advice that’s helped Annie:</b> A former colleague told me to know my stuff like an entrepreneur. It’s not enough to know one part of the business well—it’s better to understand the entire end-to-end process. This mindset helps me obtain the depth of knowledge and discipline to work cross-functionally. It also helps me advocate for our customers and ease bottlenecks.</p><p><b>Annie’s advice:</b> Raise your hand for projects that stretch your ability. I often fight with my imposter syndrome when I'm presented with a new technical challenge. I’ll think to myself that I'm not familiar with the technical stack or the players involved, but I always push myself to volunteer anyway.</p><p>The beauty of technology is that it's always changing, so most people are learning as they go. You can pick up new technical knowledge through online learning modules and meeting with specialists both inside and outside of your company. Taking on stretch opportunities is a great way to keep your skill set fresh and help you advance your career in technology.<br/></p><h2>Today, Ritcha Ranjan is…</h2></div></div>

She’s building the future of real-world games by helping developers create immersive, global games with real location data.</i></p><p><b>Advice that’s helped Clementine:</b> Distrust your own sense of what’s feasible. When you have two equally exciting choices, find a way to try both. I’ve always been intrigued by shiny opportunities, which would often bring me to forks in the road. A software engineering internship or a full-time circus gig in Brazil? Anthropology research in Tanzania or recording pop music in Sweden? Cognitive science or tech?</p><p>Starting with the assumption that I’d “do both” was a paradigm shift. It has saved me countless hours of analysis paralysis. The best way to compare opportunities—especially big, important ones—is to try them on for size. Trying a few steps of “both” is often enough and the right choice becomes obvious. Plus, we’re capable of more than we think we are. Opportunities that energize and expand our capacity make us better.</p><p><b>Clementine’s advice:</b> Do both. Chase the things that excite you—prune later.<br/></p></div></div>

- Espresso makes Google cloud faster, more available and cost effective by extending SDN to the public internethttp://feedproxy.google.com/~r/blogspot/MKuf/~3/j8Y2-iLT2EQ/<div class="block-paragraph"><div class="rich-text"><br/><p>Today, we gave a keynote presentation at the <a href="http://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/open-networking-summit">Open Networking Summit</a>, where we shared details about Espresso, Google’s peering edge architecture—the latest offering in our Software Defined Networking (SDN) strategy. Espresso has been in production for over two years and routes 20 percent of our total traffic to the internet—and growing. It’s changing the way traffic is directed at the peering edge, delivering unprecedented scale, flexibility and efficiency.</p><p>We view our network as more than just a way to connect computers to one another. Building the right network infrastructure enables new application capabilities that simply would not otherwise be possible. This is especially powerful when the capability is exposed to higher level applications running in our datacenters.</p><p>For example, consider real-time voice search. Answering the question “What’s the latest news?” with <a href="https://assistant.google.com/">Google Assistant</a> requires a fast, low-latency connection from a user’s device to the edge of Google’s network, and from the edge of our network to one of our data centers. Once inside a data center, hundreds—or even thousands—of individual servers must consult vast amounts of data to score the mapping of an audio recording to possible phrases in one of many languages and dialects. The resulting phrase is then passed to another cluster to perform a web search, consulting a real-time index of internet content. The results are then gathered, scored and returned to the edge of Google’s network back to the end user.</p><p>Answering queries in real-time involves coordinating dozens of internet routers and thousands of computers across the globe, often in the space of less than a second! Further, the system must scale to a worldwide audience that generates thousands of queries every second.</p>Early on, we realized that the network we needed to support our services did not exist and could not be bought. Hence, over the past 10+ years, we set out to the fill in the required pieces in-house. Our fundamental design philosophy is that the network should be treated as a large-scale distributed system and leverage the same control infrastructure we developed for Google’s compute and storage systems. </div></div>

<div class="block-paragraph"><div class="rich-text"><h3>Introducing Espresso</h3><p>Espresso is the fourth, and in some ways the most challenging, pillar of our SDN strategy, extending our approach all the way to the peering edge of our network, where Google connects to other networks across the planet.</p><p>Google has one of the largest peering surfaces in the world, exchanging data with Internet Service Providers (ISPs) at 70 metros and generating more than 25 percent of all Internet traffic. However, we found that existing Internet protocols cannot use all of the connectivity options offered by our ISP partners, and therefore aren’t able to deliver the best availability and user experience to our end users.</p><p>Espresso delivers two key pieces of innovation. First, it allows us to dynamically choose from where to serve individual users based on measurements of how end-to-end network connections are performing in real time. Rather than pick a static point to connect users simply based on their IP address (or worse, the IP address of their DNS resolver), we dynamically choose the best point and rebalance our traffic based on actual performance data. Similarly, we are able to react in real-time to failures and congestion both within our network and in the public Internet.</p><p>Espresso allows us to maintain performance and availability in a way that is not possible with existing router-centric Internet protocols. This translates to higher availability and better performance through Google Cloud than is available through the Internet at large.</p><p>Second, we separate the logic and control of traffic management from the confines of individual router “boxes.” Rather than relying on thousands of individual routers to manage and learn from packet streams, we push the functionality to a distributed system that extracts the aggregate information. We leverage our large-scale computing infrastructure and signals from the application itself to learn how individual flows are performing, as determined by the end user’s perception of quality.</p><p> </p><p>Google’s network is a critical part of our infrastructure, enabling us to process tremendous amounts of information in real time and to host some of the world’s most demanding services, all while delivering content with the highest levels of availability and efficiency to a global population. Our network continues to be a key opportunity and differentiator for Google, ensuring that Google Cloud services and customers enjoy the same levels of availability, performance, and efficiency available to “Google native” services such as Google Search, YouTube, Gmail and more.</p><i>Note: Ankur Jain, Principal Engineer and Mahesh Kallahalla, Principal Engineer also contributed to this post</i><br/></div></div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/blogspot/MKuf/~4/j8Y2-iLT2EQ" height="1" width="1" alt=""/>Tue, 04 Apr 2017 17:00:00 +0000Tue, 04 Apr 2017 17:00:00 +0000The Official Google Blog

Designed to challenge educators to pursue their creative ideas, the <a href="https://edutrainingcenter.withgoogle.com/certification_innovator">Google for Education Certified Innovator Program</a> offers support for projects that improve education in schools around the world. Over 12 months, educators conduct research, solicit feedback from peers in their cohort and prototype their ideas. Today, we’re highlighting three teachers who participated in the Certified Innovator Program and are inspiring other educators to turn their ideas into action.</i></p></div></div>
<div class="block-paragraph"><div class="rich-text"><p>We are excited to announce the dates for the rest of the <a href="https://edutrainingcenter.withgoogle.com/certification_innovator#applynow">2017 Innovation Academies</a>, the kickoff to the program for each cohort. Applications are now open for our next Academy in Washington DC.</p><p></p><ul><li>Washington DC, USA: August 2-4 [<a href="https://docs.google.com/a/google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSe5HyhP5Go2el6BDl6yic8Uo7BhA7xYgO2SraKA_FTGlOp0lg/viewform">Apply Now</a>]<br/></li><li>Sydney, Australia: August 16-18<br/></li><li>Stockholm, Sweden: October 4-6<br/></li><li>Sao Paulo, Brazil: December 6-8<br/></li></ul></div></div>
<div class="block-paragraph"><div class="rich-text"><p>We recently spoke with three inspirational educators about their experience in the Innovator Program and the ideas they brought to life: Charlie Shryock, who created <a href="https://sites.google.com/view/ethanks/home">eThanks</a>, an online gratitude site for teachers; Matt Wigdahl who designed a makerspace project called <a href="http://tinyurl.com/l76aksj">SolverSpace</a>; and Carrie Anne Philbin who created <a href="http://www.geekgurldiaries.co.uk/">Geek Gurl Diaries</a> to inspire girls to pursue careers in the technical field.</p><h3><b>Q: What inspired you to pursue your project?</b></h3><p><b>Charlie</b><b>:</b> A few months before I was accepted into the program, I was talking with a colleague about the ‘invisible’ works she does — for example, mentoring a younger colleague in her own time. She isn’t compensated for this work, but does it because she’s passionate about helping others. For a while, I had been trying to find a way to acknowledge teachers for the amazing things they do.<br/></p><p>The real moment I knew I had an idea worth pursuing was during a reflection exercise with my Certified Innovator Program cohort when we identified what we’re good at — I’m good at seeing the good in others. I was inspired to put that skill to good use. I spoke to Google employees and saw their enthusiasm for a tool called gThanks, an online site where people post messages of gratitude. That’s when I decided to adapt the idea for educators and created eThanks.<br/></p><p><b>Matt</b><b>:</b> In science class students often learn by reading textbooks and listening to lectures, but they don’t have much choice in their science projects. I wanted students to explore science in a meaningful, engaging way with real life applications. I came up with the idea for SolverSpace, which is part makerspace and part badging system, as a way to bring innovative tools like 3D printers, time lapse cameras, lego robotics and sensors into the classroom.<br/></p><p><b>Carrie Anne:</b> In 2012 I noticed that the majority of students in my computer science class were boys; in a class of 26, only two were girls. I wanted to change the paradigm around women and technology by sharing the stories of women doing technical jobs. Then I met James Sanders [founder of Breakout EDU] who introduced me to educational videos on YouTube. That’s when I realized I could use YouTube to inspire girls to pursue STEM. I started interviewing women in computing, science, technology and engineering roles and featuring them on Geek Gurl Diaries to challenge their perceptions about traditionally geeky subjects.<br/></p><h3><b>Q: What was your biggest takeaway or learning from the Innovator Program?</b></h3><p><b>Charlie</b><b>: </b>The check-in points and milestones made sure we were engaging in regular reflection about designing our projects. Without the program, this would have been a fun idea that I likely wouldn’t have acted on. Having accountability partners and mentors inspired me to create something that I would be proud to share with my cohort.<b><br/></b></p><p><b>Matt:</b> A turning point for me was when I talked to a couple people in my cohort about my idea and they said, “Have you thought about design thinking?”, which I had never heard of. After talking for 10 minutes, I instantly knew this concept would be central to my project. Had my cohort peers not exposed me to design thinking, I likely would have spent tons of time reinventing the wheel.<br/></p><h3><b>Q: What was your biggest learning once you launched your project back at your school?</b></h3><p><b>Charlie</b><b>:</b> When I returned from the on-site program, I wanted to dive in, so I ran a summer pilot at my school. Immediately teachers started posting thank yous and more people were smiling on campus. The expressions of gratitude online encouraged people to say thanks in person too. That pilot period reinforced in my mind that you need to just start. I went into the program with a big, bold idea of transforming the culture of feedback in schools, and I realized I should start with a small part of the puzzle.<b><br/></b></p><p><b>Carrie Anne</b><b>: </b>One of the biggest things I learned from this project was if you build it, people will come. I was passionate about creating this series of videos, but didn’t know if young girls would watch them. You have to have faith in your ideas. Now I get emails all the time from kids around the world saying they watched a video and were inspired. Their “thank you” emails make every moment of this project worthwhile.<br/></p></div></div>

<div class="block-paragraph"><div class="rich-text"><h3><b>Q: What advice do you have for educators who have innovative ideas and need help putting them into action?</b></h3><p><b>Matt</b><b>:</b> Extend your arm to those in your community and great things will happen. When I started tweeting about the project, an engineering professor at the University of Wisconsin responded and asked to partner his college students with my fifth grade students to work on projects and learn from each other. For example, our district occupational therapist asked our class to build a modified utensil for writing to help a student who doesn’t have full use of his wrist. Our students fully embraced the problem and worked together to come up with a solution.<b><br/></b></p><p><b>Carrie Anne</b><b>:</b> Say yes and try new things. If you never try something, you’ll never know how it could have turned out. I could have failed hard and fast, but I was passionate about this project, so regardless of the result, I knew it was the right thing to do. Failing is a first attempt at learning. When I look back at the first videos I created, they had awful lighting and editing.

<div class="block-paragraph"><div class="rich-text"><p>The idea behind Scheduled Pause started a year ago.

And I was more refreshed and rejuvenated in the morning.</p><p>As I started talking to more people, in and outside of Google, I found that screen time was a common challenge for parents—from getting kids to put down their favorite game to struggling to have dinner without eyes glued to devices.<br/></p><p>We hope Scheduled Pause helps you and your family create time for everyone to be more present and enjoy everyday moments.<br/></p></div></div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/blogspot/MKuf/~4/KN0bQA1viNw" height="1" width="1" alt=""/>Mon, 03 Apr 2017 16:00:00 +0000Mon, 03 Apr 2017 16:00:00 +0000The Official Google Blog
- Introducing PAX: the Android Networked Cross-License Agreementhttp://feedproxy.google.com/~r/blogspot/MKuf/~3/Aymy17tdJmo/<div class="block-paragraph"><div class="rich-text"><p>In Latin, the word pax means “peace.” In the world of intellectual property, patent peace often coincides with innovation and healthy competition that benefit consumers. It is with a hope for such benefits that we are announcing our newest patent licensing initiative focusing on patent peace, which we call PAX. </p><p>Under PAX, members grant each other royalty-free patent licenses covering Android and Google Applications on qualified devices. This community-driven clearinghouse, developed together with our Android partners, ensures that innovation and consumer choice—not patent threats—will continue to be key drivers of our Android ecosystem. PAX is free to join and open to anyone.</p><p>Already, <a href="https://source.android.com/index.html">Android</a> is distributed under <a href="https://source.android.com/source/licenses.html">open-source licenses</a> that allow anyone to use it for free. This openness has resulted in enormous choice for manufacturers and users. The Android ecosystem has grown to include more than 400 partner manufacturers and 500 carriers who have produced more than 4,000 major devices in the last year alone with an astounding 1.6 billion active users. We believe PAX will further expand the openness of Android for its members, promoting patent peace that will free up time and money for members, who can then dedicate those resources to creating new ideas.</p><p>PAX members currently include <a href="https://www.google.com/intl/en/about/">Google</a>, <a href="http://www.samsung.com/">Samsung Electronics</a>, <a href="http://www.lg.com/">LG Electronics</a>, <a href="http://www.foxconn.com/"></a><a href="http://www.foxconn.com/">Foxconn Technology Group</a>, <a href="http://www.hmdglobal.com/about/">HMD Global</a>, <a href="http://investors.htc.com/phoenix.zhtml?c=148697&p=irol-homeprofile">HTC</a>, <a href="http://www.coolpad.com/index.html">Coolpad</a>, <a href="https://www.bq.com/en/corporate-info">BQ</a>, and <a href="http://allviewmobile.com/"></a><a href="http://allviewmobile.com/">Allview</a>. The members collectively own more than 230,000 patents worldwide. As more companies join, PAX will bring even more patent peace and value to its members through more freedom to innovate. </p><p>PAX is the latest innovative licensing effort that Google has helped develop in order to provide balanced patent solutions. Other efforts include the <a href="http://lotnet.com/">LOT Network</a> and the <a href="https://www.google.com/patents/opnpledge/">Open Patent Non-assertion Pledge</a>, as well as our participation in such initiatives as the <a href="http://www.openinventionnetwork.com/">Open Invention Network</a> and IP3 run by <a href="http://www.ast.com/">Allied Security Trust</a>. Initiatives like these—and PAX—are among the many ways Google contributes to fair and balanced patent systems across an interconnected world. </p><p>We encourage interested companies, large and small, around the world to join us in PAX and enjoy patent peace. To learn more, please visit the <a href="http://paxlicense.org/">PAX website</a>.</p></div></div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/blogspot/MKuf/~4/Aymy17tdJmo" height="1" width="1" alt=""/>Mon, 03 Apr 2017 05:00:00 +0000Mon, 03 Apr 2017 05:00:00 +0000The Official Google Blog

<div class="block-paragraph"><div class="rich-text"><p>The challenge with understanding Heptapod B is its nonlinear orthography. Fortunately, Google's <a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1609.08144">neural machine translation system</a> employs an encoder/decoder system that internally represents sentences as high-dimensional vectors. These vectors map well to the non-linear orthography of the Heptapod language and they are really the enabling technical factor in translating Heptapod B.</p><p>We interpret Heptapod B into English, Chinese, Danish, Japanese, Urdu, Russian, French, Spanish and Arabic. As with our other Word Lens languages, it works offline, which is really handy if you happen to need to read a circular logogram in an isolated location. Dr. Banks assures us that the app will continue to work for at least 3,000 years.<br/></p></div></div>
