- EdwardDiego 4y agoCheers for clarifying :) I'll admit that surprises me greatly, I can't see why it's considered more efficient, but hey, Google.
- eutropia 4y agoprobably efficient because their codebase size would outstretch local disk space requirements, and also would allow for comprehensive access controls
- compiler-guy 4y agoThe first program you build in Noogler training takes more compute and io to build than the Linux kernel. The distributed build systems laughs at such a trivial program and barely breaks a sweat at programs 10x that size. A poor little laptop would break down and cry.
- UncleMeat 4y agoGoogle has a giant monorepo. It is too big for git. (Virtually) everything is built from source. Building a binary that just runs InitGoogle() is going to crush a laptop. I believe that there are also a bunch of IP reasons for this policy, but from a practical perspective doing everything with citc and blaze is really the only option.
