Google sucked/s at executive function because they completely lack appreciation for proper R&D and long-term investment and also kill things people use and love.

Honestly a lot of the time they seem to be be in "what do humans want?" mode.

  • Yep. And rather than ask people, focus group, or look at the evidence, they just guess or do whatever they want. Not much leadership or community engagement appears to be involved.

    • I don’t think that’s an entirely fair characterization. They obviously spend a great deal of time focusing on what their (human) shareholders want.
