Everybody walks past a thousand story ideas every day. The good writers are the ones who see five or six of them. Most people don't see any.
Comment preview: Googler here: It's probably more important what you do after than on your trip. I have worked with lots of interns and here are some of my "don't(s)". 1. Don't ask "How do I get hired here when I am done with school" 1. Don't expect to write code or see an ....
Comment preview: I've heard undertones of impostor syndrome ever since I joined--it's not as blatant as in /r/GradSchool where there are posts like every other day or something, but occasionally you will see people mention impostor syndrome here and there. It's also possib ....
Comment preview: My [other comment](http://www.reddit.com/r/technology/comments/1khfz1/googles_20_time_which_brought_you_gmail_and/cboz7ps) is being downvoted, but here are the comments of people actually working inside Google: > As a Googler, I can confirm that this ar ....
Comment preview: ####Here you go, you hack fuck: * For every 500 upvotes this submission gets, I will remove a moderator from /r/circlejerk. * - * If Ron Paul is elected, he will decrease the number of pokemon back to 151. * JUST WROTE THIS CODE - click the ghost a ....
Comment preview: No real surprise. Google Play's developer agreement/TOS/{insert legalese document name here} doesn't allow for apps which simply download and install other apps. That's why the Amazon App Store and other third-party app stores aren't available in Google Pl ....
Comment preview: Here's some counterpoint, just for kicks. I've been at Google for three years. While my anecdote doesn't cancel out the article (nor does the article cancel out my experiences), the article doesn't feel very representative of my experience here. (Usual cav ....
Comment preview: Honestly, I was a little pissed when right before the 4.0 update, the one dev went on to Google+ and said we, /r/Android specifically, would be happy with the update, (and a lot of people on Google+ said to just ignore us and said that the app was fine) an ....
Comment preview: The only issue I see here is that you're talking about teaching something in a classroom setting which, I'm sure we can agree, is far more effectively learned through experience. Classrooms teach basic, objective facts because they're the groundwork of gre ....
Comment preview: First and foremost, our intention isn t to push users to use Chrome over any other browser. We re working as fast as we can on enabling all other browsers as soon as possible. When Inbox was in early development, the product and UX teams were iterating rap ....
Comment preview: This is all inline with googles plan, in the grand scheme of things google is only looking to hire/employ junior programmers and if you have kids chances are you're too old to fit the bill, so pay $57000 every year or get out. And honestly anyone here who ....
Comment preview: Full disclosure: I'm a Googler so likely biased. But I'd like to clear up some what appears to be confusion here. Note that all of this is my opinion only. I don't speak for Google. **Google took his money.** No, Google didn't. Google gave it back to the a ....
Comment preview: Googler here. Actually most Google engineers do use a Linux desktop - the main reason so that we can develop software to run on the web or on Google Linux servers. Market share is obviously one reason why we don't develop a lot of Linux desktop apps, but I ....
Comment preview: The entire article is well worth the read. It's super long but here are some key points from it that I found important - ------------------------ >There was nothing politically hapless about Eric Schmidt. I had been too eager to see a politically unambi ....
Comment preview: Also a three-year Googler here. The weird thing I find when I read what people write about Google on the Internet is that half of the articles claim that the office is just a playground and nobody does any work, and the other half claim that the perks are ....
Comment preview: C: system programming, OS kernel, high performance applications C++: High performance applications, and games Java: high performance web applications, cross-platform tools in general Python: General purpose language very good for quick development, very us ....
