I couldn’t help but hear a desire for lack of accountability in this post. The guy worked at Google for 20 years but really just worked on open source projects he liked without regard for whether it added value to the company (and in fact fondly recalls someone telling him that googles interests shouldn’t matter.)
I get why that’s fun but you can’t run a company forever in that way. In my eye even the layoffs are a signal that headcount is not infinite and you have to align what people work on to what makes money.
His ranting against his VP and Sundar seem hollow, for all I can tell he’s just upset the gravy train of no accountability is over.
