“Asked about his approach to running the company, Page once told a Googler his method for solving complex problems was by reducing them to binaries, and then simply choosing the best option,” Carlson writes. “Whatever the downside he viewed as collateral damage he could live with.”

"All these activities send a very strong signal to consumers about the essence of Google."

it does the complete opposite, it makes it look like google is just throwing ideas at the wall seeing what sticks since they have so much capital

unless the essence of google is controlling every aspect of your life in which case then sure

the best way to get promoted is to launch something

therefore

fixing things isn't worth your time

makes sense really

almost as if that contributes to google's "launch it then shut it down a year later" methodology

twitch's vod function is dumb bullshit that probably cant handle anything more complicated than 30 minute chunks

VODs are saved in FLV format, and platforms like mobile and console devices can’t playback that format.
As past broadcasts are saved in 30-minute chunks across multiple media servers, a single server maintenance or failure could prevent proper service of an entire VOD.
Extremely limited availability of transcodes on VODs.
Due to current storage requirements, past broadcasts can only be saved for 3 days without an explicit “save forever.”
We must save an entire past broadcast indefinitely if a highlight from it exists.

this entire article is loving hilarious in the worst way possible
