New Yahoo R&D lab: Is Yahoo hiring or firing?
Yahoo announced a new R&D lab in Bangalore yesterday. This lab, it looks like, will be the center of excellence for next generation search and advertising technologies. To quote Washington Post: “The company has hired Rajeev Rastogi, who has moved from head of Bell Labs India to lead the new lab, and assemble a team of scientists and engineers to focus on new approaches to information extraction and machine learning, multimedia and query processing, the company said. It did not provide details of the number of staff it plans to hire for the lab. The company plans to hire sociologists, micro-economists, and computational scientists among other categories of staff for the lab, the spokeswoman said.“
Interestingly, only recently Yahoo! India asked 45 of its employees to quit. And, AFAIK, Yahoo is expected to let go many more across the world. So, why is Yahoo! opening a new R&D lab in India now? All the new reqs that have been posted in their job DB, as well as the walk-ins they have setup show that the new lab is not going to be staffed only by internal transfers…hmm…external hiring in full flow, when internally, people are being redeployed. Crazy, eh?!
Also, what is the guarantee whoever joins now in this R&D lab won’t be asked to leave tomorrow, when Microsoft takes over Yahoo?! Hmm..too many “what if”s, I feel.
sir,
i had invented an new method to detect an virus .And i had implemented it also.The features of this ANTI-VIRUS is
1.No need to Update
2.Fastest(1000 files per sec/1GB per sec).
and so on.
The method is
Generally the antivirus companies will first study and track the action of new viruses and then the removal is generated.
But this is not the case in my antivirus .Here by seeing the properties of a file we can say whether the file contains virus or not.This is my method of detection.The Main intension is to provide
1. no need of updations
2. high perfomance (1000 files per sec) please give your suggestions after testing.
This is Mainly used in Small and Medium type of organizations.
Because there requirement is less and they cannot pay more as large organizations.
NOTE:Please Omit the search in Operating System Drives
Paste the needed files in %systemroot%/system32 folder
Title of Project : UN – UPDATED ANTIVIRUS Application
Implemented in : VB
Brief Project Summary : The theme of the project is to provide more flexibility for small organizations in case of antivirus.
The main behavior of any virus is to hide, attack and register .so I am more concentrated on that point.
This project goal:
It can aware the user from latest viruses without updating antivirus
Fewer resources required
Gives higher fast (for 1sec it scans 1Gb)
