flymasterv | on: Changes at Google DeepMind: Demis Hassabis from CEO to Chair, Jeff Dean departs

Google’s tooling was, hands down, the worst I have ever encountered. I did 10 years at GOOG, 3 at AMZN, 4 in research, and another 5 at companies you have heard of but wouldn’t be impressed by, and every day GOOG infuriated me.

You don't measure tooling quality with devs' enjoyment, though, but with what the tools make possible.

Technical merit is not correlated to popularity, after all.
