Hang on - how has google enriched the developer space?
- aragot 13y agoGuava is the main piece I think about. GWT? Guice? What else?
- gress 13y agoHardly setting fire to the world. Really nothing by comparison to what FOSS has accomplished without them.
- vetinari 13y agoAngular? Repo? Popular web browser that does not suck? Being a force behind new HTML5 APIs?
- gress 13y agoPopular web browser that doesn't suck was already taken care of. HTML5 Apis are a collaborative effort. Angular is a novel entrant that is one among hundreds. I'm not trying to suggest that Google isn't contributing positively to the dev community, but I strongly dispute the idea that they have enriched it in any way proportionally to the way they've profited from it.
- outside1234 13y agoyou don't use Dart or Go? Actually, neither do I. Its funny, because when they do hit on something like Node.js (built with v8), Google ignores it. Its sort of puzzling actually.
- gress 13y agoI actually do use go, and I like it, but it's hardly setting the world on fire.
