The whole point is that everything's changed. These people are griping about lack of free food in the office, bad pay and lousy benefits. They also complain that Google is "constrained to thinking in the browser." Too bad they didn't stick it out to see the self-driving cars, and none of these people were working on Android.
- jfoutz 11y agoGoogle hired the grand challenge winners back in 2007. Google has always had amazing world changing side projects. They just don't seem to go anywhere (yet). Google has been talking about satalites for free worldwide internet access since before SpaceX existed. Don't get me wrong, they're doing amazing stuff. The drone delivery system they built is cool. It's just that, aside from maps, it seems like they have a hard time pushing through to completion.
- jwatte 11y agoI know several people who worked on Android, and then left, because the architects were repeating known failure patterns from the past, yet failing to recognize it. Those patterns are some of the worst pain points for current Android developers. (No, not device fragmentation -- that was unavoidable.)
