It feels weird having Google on the “improve connection between the company” side when they are the poster child of parallel implementations and internal competing products and standards (at least as seen from the outside).

- gumby 7y agoI don't think so. I just cited their monorepo as an approach close to opposite polar extreme. In reality they don't actually have a single, company-wide repo, and they also have some groups that have isolation almost as extreme as Apple's. Any large company will have these communication problems I cited; the part I find weird is that Apple not only takes no steps to address them but takes steps that as side effects exacerbate the issue. Clearly it doesn't bother them and they do ship good products so...
