    摘要: Systems, methods and computer readable media for bot interaction are described. For example, some implementations can include a computer-executed method including providing a messaging application, on a first computing device associated with a first user, to enable communication between the first user and at least one other user. The method can also include detecting, at the messaging application, a user request, and programmatically determining that an operation in response to the user request requires sharing of data associated with the first user. The method can further include causing a permission interface to be rendered in the messaging application on the first computing device, the permission interface enabling the first user to approve or prohibit sharing of the data associated with the first user, and upon receiving user input from the first user indicating approval of the sharing of the data associated with the first user, accessing the data associated with the first user and sharing the data associated with the first user within the messaging application in response to the user request.

    摘要: An apparatus that includes resonant tanks, switches, control logic and one or more non-resonant capacitors. The control logic that generates two or more sets of control signal inputs applied to the inputs of the switches so that for each set of control signals one or more sub-circuit loops are formed, and wherein the one or more sub-circuit loops for a first set of control signals is different from the one or more sub-circuit loops for a second set of control signals, and each of the sub-circuit loops includes one or more of the resonant tanks, and at least one of the sub-circuit loops includes a non-resonant capacitor.

    摘要: In a method and system for incentivizing a user to make a purchase, social relationship data for a user of an online social network is identified, and an offer is provided to the user to purchase an item at a promotional price if an acceptance of the offer by the user satisfies a timing condition with respect to the other users purchasing the item. In response to receiving an acceptance of the offer, whether the acceptance of the offer by the user satisfies the timing condition with respect to the other users purchasing the item is determined. In response to determining that the acceptance of the offer by the user satisfies a timing condition with respect to the other users purchasing the item, an indication that the user is allowed to purchase the item for the promotional price can be provided.

    摘要: A computer-implemented technique can include detecting an initiation of composing an electronic message by a user, obtaining contextual information for the electronic message from a source external to a text of the electronic message, obtaining a first suggestion for the text of the electronic message based on the contextual information, detecting an operating condition indicative of a user activity during which the user is likely to experience difficulty in typing, in response to detecting the operating condition, obtaining a second suggestion for the electronic message based on the contextual information, the second suggestion being more detailed than the first suggestion, and outputting one of the first and second suggestions depending on one or more other conditions.

    摘要: In one implementation, a computer-implemented method includes detecting, by a mobile computing device, a current context associated with the mobile computing device, the current context being external to the mobile computing device and indicating a current state of the mobile computing device in its surrounding environment. The method can also include identifying, based on at least a first portion of the current context, a location description for the mobile computing device, wherein the location description includes a textual description of the location; and determining, based on the identified location description and at least a second portion of the current context, whether to switch the mobile computing device from operating using a current profile to operating using a second profile, wherein the current profile and the second profile each define one or more settings of the mobile computing device.

    摘要: A system includes an optical transceiver configured to transmit/receive at least one optical feed and a beam separator configured to separate the optical feed into a plurality of optical beams, and spatially combine the optical beams into the optical beam. The system also includes a dichroic mirror optically coupled to the beam separator and configured to reflect the optical beams, and allow beacon signals to pass therethrough. A position sensitive detector of the system optically couples to the dichroic mirror and is configured to sense an incidence position of each beacon signal allowed to pass through the dichroic mirror, and output a position error for each optical beam based on the sensed incidence positions. The system also includes a multi-axis optical steering system configured to direct each optical beam based on the corresponding position error outputted from the position sensitive detector and a corresponding transmit/receive target.

    摘要: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for resolving location criteria using user location data. One of the methods includes receiving data identifying an action to be performed in response to received user requests and data identifying location criteria for performing the action; determining a cover sets for possible confidence radii; receiving a plurality of requests, each request being associated with a respective location and a confidence radius for the location; determining, for each of the plurality of requests, whether the location associated with the request is in the cover set corresponding to the confidence radius for the location associated with the request; and for each request for which the location associated with the request is in the cover set for the confidence radius corresponding to the location associated with the request, determining that the location criteria for performing the action are satisfied.
