Polezniye duraki never fail to show up and stand up for multi-trillion dollar companies.
Did you know that the DOJ (in the US) recently ruled Chrome to be separate from Google, due to monopolistic practices?
>never attribute to malice what can be sufficiently explained by incompetence
Really? If only they uttered this phrase during the trial the could have got away with it, dang!
- tehlike 2y agoYou are mixing many things together. Google is so evil, please do not use anything they build, even things they directly or indirectly contributed to, like open web standards! I am no Google fan, and I left it for a bunch of reasons. There may probably places where they do have monopolistic practices - and I won't comment on them - but my engineering sense is the explanation is much simpler here.
- moralestapia 2y agoDo you really think the DOJ forcing Chrome out of Google is out of context for this discussion? >please do not use anything they build I actually try not to.
- tehlike 2y ago> Do you really think the DOJ forcing Chrome out of Google is out of context for this discussion? That's not even related to what I said. I mentioned the issue here is less likely to be due to monopolistic causes. Also see this reply from an eng that did work around firefox regressions: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42389526 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42389526 It corroborates with what i said.
