This, Is Why Google Is Google

This is a good move, regardless of the position the company hold on politics. Every company should do that. When people’s political views aren’t as polarized as today it’s no harm for coworkers to sit together and have a discussion on the various parties and candidates and policies, but nowadays this can lead to real problems. Most people are not able to have a fact-based discussion without getting emotional at some point, and the last thing a company wants is to destroy the working relationships among employees simply because of different political views. It’s better to just not have these conversations at work because eventually something is going to come out of it and it may not be pretty.

The issue is adults being unable to discuss facts. How are they ever going to make business decisions? It’ll just be group think opinion and emotions. No wonder google can’t innovate anything new that generates meaningful revenue despite spending billions every year on R&D.

Is Google trying to irritate Apple? So many Apple like devices? No longer do search? When is the Google watch coming?

This was a hardware event. :slight_smile:

Time to switch to iCloud or opening Google cloud mules.

Duh. If something is free then people over consume it. If people have to pay, then they’ll pay attention to consumption and price.

Buy stocks in one of these companies,

Btw, @manch favorite stock, AMZN is now worth less than GOOG!
How long will it take for SHOP to overtake AMZN in market cap?

Lucky for fitbit because it was going to zero eventually

They should buy GoPro too while they’re buying dying hardware companies who couldn’t evolve.
