I'm not really defending it but it does seem like big, smart, technical organizations make blindingly bad mistakes.
- frank_boyd 13y agoThat was not a mistake. Things like these need features that need to be developed and budgets that need to be approved. Somebody did that. But that's for another discussion.
- spullara 13y agoI'm don't think you work for a company that develops software at scale. An individual did that, yes, but did Google as an organization decide to do it explicitly? Probably not.
