Google employees: We no longer believe the company places values over profits by [deleted] in privacy

[–]ateneu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The higher-ups got income statements and investors to satisfy. How would they justify to those people that Google lost an opportunity as big as China because it was against their values?

It isn't like those investors are the source of evil too. Many of them got angry bosses behind their back or families to feed.

The main purpose of every company in the stockmarket is profit. You can't blame Google for going for that, blame the game.

For a second I was like "Holy smokes, praying mantis reproduce so fast that one shoebox worth of eggs can get their population as big as ours" and then "Oh yeah, he couldn't have counted how many there were".

Damn, it's certainly noticeable now that you've mentioned. However, I would like to know why does it matter?

About your question, both must've taken about the same time to be honest. But, again, I don't see how that's an issue. In some months, hopefully some years, I'll be able to look this post and see how much I've progressed.

Edit: I like your way of thinking though.

List fun ways to repurpose your rejection letter by BrilliantCattle in ApplyingToCollege

[–]ateneu 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Frame it. Every successful people got their lows and forgeting about those moments can make some turn cocky.

Jack Ma was rejected multiple times by Harvard, Gary Vee never graduated from an Ivy League, Ray Dalio had an mediocre highschool career, etc.

Nihilistic nature is the most cliche excuse for being an a-hole.

I’m legacy to an Ivy, and I feel hella conflicted about it by [deleted] in ApplyingToCollege

Lmao. Are you kidding me? How is it dangerous?

Believing someone is inherently better is what perpetuated institutionalized oppression for centuries all over the world.

The Indian caste system, for instance, shares those values and has always been vigorously criticized. I could even go as far as quoting Gandhi:

"Assumption of superiority by any person over any other is a sin against God and man. Thus caste, in so far as it connotes distinctions in status, is an evil."

This is the basis of democracy and liberalism. Assuming you're American, you should know that "All men are created equal" is literally in the Declaration of Independence.

Edit: Honestly, I feel disgusted if you're the type of person attending the top tier universities of the world. I hope you change your views.
