Awesome... another messaging technology that Google can completely screw up. At this point I've lost all hope that the company can execute. They're 3rd place

They're 3rd place in cloud computing. Elasticsearch is destroying them on search. They're constantly fucking up on Youtube.
- seabrookmx 7y agoHardly a Google fanboy and I agree with the general sentiment that their messaging apps up until now have been a dumpster fire. But Google is a huge company and certain parts can definitely succeed when others fail. 70% of the developed world have an Android phone.. I'm typing this one one. They might be third to cloud computing because they were late to the party. Having used their tech and AWS, I can say confidently that they're executing just fine. Especially with respect to k8s support (oh yeah.. they made k8s). And how is ElasticSearch destroying them on search? ElasticSearch as a system of indexing things is not remotely comparable to the web scale implementation Google runs and orders via their Page Rank algorithm. Am I missing something here? I'll concede YouTube. Nobody know how/why they rank shit there and it makes no sense. Anyways, my point is that blanket statements for any entity as large as Google, MS, Apple, IBM etc. are largely ridiculous.
