Google's music service is bundled with YouTube premium. Do you like watching ads on YouTube? I don't. But yeah there's no point in buying multiple music streaming services if you don't have other reasons for the overlap.

So Russian gas is going to start flowing again soon? I am not holding my breath on that one. In any case, the global harm that's come from building a multi-decade dependence on Russia for anything as crucial as oil and gas is far worse

Margins are crumbling and now the story is that they'll make it back by selling fsd. On top of that, all the insane valuations assume both of the things (high market share of EVs and high penetration of EVs across car market). Anyway y

No mention of the relocation bonus. Was there one? Did they rescind that as well? Since I'm 90% sure Google would pay for international relocation, and the blog post didn't mention it (which it surely would have if Google had offe
