if someone from ms could basically hire a couple of google people to figure out how to price their poo poo better it'd be a hit ed - and maybe someone from apple to figure out how to not have 12 loving skus for each version of their products

also azure is more expensive than aws, although you can really easily accuse aws of being cryptic as gently caress about pricing models

self driving cars will avoid wrecks by automatically pulling off the road and stopping at a 7-11 until you buy something or watch a five minute advertisement for taquitos

Cygni posted:cellphone/radio jammers are real and cool but will also get ur rear end arrested in the US iirc a dude in florida got busted a few weeks ago for driving around with a cell phone jammer in his suv they found him because metropcs noticed a lot of drops in a certain moving area over a period of time in the morning/afternoon, called the fcc, they set up monitors along the route and found him because he turned it on during his commute and took the same path each day

Linguica posted:the funny thing is that the DOJ under bush did VASTLY more to investigate and prosecute companies than the DOJ under obama ever has there was an article a while back in the nyt magazine iirc about why this has happened; essentially, after the big wins against Enron and their financial guys, the rulings got gutted/overturned by higher courts and the doj got gunshy about going after individuals, instead preferring to wring large cash settlements and fines out of the companies. this has worked insofar as they've gotten record settlements against banks and other corporate entities, but those settlements are barely a couple of percent of their annual profits so it's just an easy cost of doing business and nothing changes.

Google has the Apple and msft problem of being too big to actually fail, but in a structural way. long before poo poo got really bad the adults would come in, fire half the workforce, and focus on core competencies like search and Adwords and related techs.

Apple is the only company making money off of tablets and has literal billions of cash on hand. if that's what a dying company looks like, sign me the gently caress up.

so if Google plus was actually a completely different service it might have succeeded? ok, I can see that incidentally if Microsoft had made the iPhone first they would probably be doing a lot better!!

meanwhile in the real world 'circles' have propagated to approximately zero other google services, I can't share a Google doc with a circle from within drive for instance (and idk if I can do it from within g+ because I don't share docs with people on g+)
