I'm saying that it is ACCEPTABLE to wear jeans, even in a professional setting. Jeans are "smart business attire." (If the dress code were "formal," that would be something else. But it isn't.)
- kevinventullo 2y agoI work at Google. I would not describe Google’s dress code as “smart business attire”.
- robotresearcher 2y agoJeans are not smart business attire. Google’s code is casual, not smart business.
- searealist 2y agoWhat's your point? If you find a photo of Larry Page in pajamas then you should be able to wear that to any Google event?
- hilux 2y agoDoes Larry Page regularly do business events in pajamas?
- robotresearcher 2y agoThe point is that Pichai observes the dress code requested by the event host. Did I make it so obscurely?
- ensignavenger 2y agoTo counter, the dress code was vague and imprecise. See my other comment here- https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42528218 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42528218 EDIT: Actually, the poster above was not accurate. The dress code is found here- https://www.fide.com/docs/regulations/wrbc_regulations_2024_open.pdf https://www.fide.com/docs/regulations/wrbc_regulations_2024_... And it was much more precise than "smart business attire.".
- searealist 2y agoNope. It explicitly disallowed jeans.
- ensignavenger 2y agoYou are correct, I have edited my comment.
- searealist 2y agoI was not responding to you.
- dullcrisp 2y agoYes, obviously.
