Just a side note but if you dig around, you'll realize that a lot of Googlers left the Inbox team around 2016. There isn't much competition to email. It's likely that other products were prioritized (like ARCore) due to compe

I agree that it was unethical - practices like these are one of the major reasons I left. It's nearly impossible to be "ethical" in large OEM companies because of the extreme competition and complexity of the organization. Mo

I used to work at an OEM that did this. When the VW Emissions Scandal was publicized, we removed almost every piece of code that did things like these from all our phones. Not sure if it was ever reverted eventually but performance test mig

Sometimes, the big lotteries like Powerball and Megamillions do get to EV > 1. Not only is it unreasonable to buy the 240 million tickets for every combination (financially and logistically), but even if you did, if you end up sharing th

Define mediocre. Google's hiring process is great but not perfect. Someone can always slip through the cracks in any company. As for compensation, Google can't differentiate who is worth 250K and who isn't solely based on the

OCaml was a required course in school for me. It was immensely useful and allowed me to think differently about programming (I only knew Java,C,C++ at the time).

This is a fair point when there are limited options available (price, availability, location, convenience). In Portland, there are tons of options that are healthier and cheaper.
