hip young things increasingly dont use facebook, i maintain that its stupid to insist that all your users also use facebook i mean its not even for single sign on (which is still stupid). doesnt tinder pull your photos from your facebook photos? does nobody under the age of 25 work at tinder or do they all have half a brain

tinder wants people who make fake accounts to at least put the effort in to make a fake fb account too

funnily enough there's a tiny googe office in my (midwestern flyover) town and i found out the other day that they actually have barbers go to the office to give their little babey employees haircuts this despite there being several barber shops/salons within a mile of the office this is probably SOP for the bay but it was extra hilarious to me that they do it in a small town too, as though their employees are too loving useless to go down the block after work to get their goddamn hairs did

ultramiraculous posted:i mean facebook's campus was designed by people from freaking disneyland the thing that always gets me is that this poo poo is actually worse in a way than drab, lifeless office buildings since it's just insulting your employees' intelligence yes, please take fat stacks of cash you could have been giving me and instead put it into a poorly-rendered simulacrum of a college campus, only, you know, without the college girls or have they figured out a way to trick college girls into being seen within a mile of SV tech nerds now too

cremnob posted:google is literally a utility on the internet i should remind you that in america being a utility is as good as you can get b/c in america even vital utilities are money making enterprises not like socialist europe the only reason its bad for google that theyre a utility is that google wont behave like one just like ms wont wisen the gently caress up and be an enterprise service provider. maybe im naive but i think google is a lot more aware of itself than ms is of itself

I work in an open office and it's absolutely fine. I take my brief and stick on a pair of headphones and get working. What, your boss doesn't let you wear headphones and listen to music whilst you work? can't be a ~creative industry~ then eh?

the exposed network and power cabling snaking down from the uncovered ceiling really give it the sort of fly-by-night boiler room vibe that you like to see in a technology company worth hundreds of billions dollars
