Yet people will still buy Sonos!

Any tips or advice?

Maybe Google should stop paying $15B/year on its own then...

Then again, I can't imagine the struggle of having to rely entirely on libraries pre-internet

Specifically, NSO Group is worth a lot less than I thought it was, even at its peak. ($1B+ valuation)

Also, the amount of infighting is... Surprising perhaps? Less surprising is the number of spinoffs out of it, and the number of competing Israeli spyware groups.

I'm constantly surprised by how good he Israeli startup environment seems to be.

Why is this? How are there so many acquisitions out of there?

Just look at OP's comment history, one example:

> I absolutely love making chrome extensions - my very first one was creating an extension for tinder.com that would swipe left on anyone with the first name Chad

All they require here is your name and email, and the recipient's name and address. Both are (probably) public somewhere and in combination are almost certainly still worthless (or certainly worth less than the postage they're giving to you for free)

Reading this article put into words my own struggles and the candid feedback I've received.

I'm certain that had I read this a few months or years ago, I would be completely lost.

Excel is incredible for being so simple to use for even the most basic tasks (Baby names v2.xlsx) to the much more complex data analysis.

As someone who uses Excel for 75% of my workweek, I wouldn't trade it for a 10% comp increase, because doing so would increase my workload at least 25%.

I recently tried moving to Google Sheets and it was unbelievable how slow computationally heavy queries would take compared to Excel, or how painful the lack of shortcuts is.

Even things like how cells are frozen (if you're on B2, are you freezing the first row, or the first and second row?) just feels wrong.

So, is it product quality or deeply built habits? Probably a mix of both. Yes, I grew up with it too, and I wouldn't have it any other way.

But it's certainly not the majority, and the further back in time you go, the number gets significantly lower.

I'm still coming to terms with the fact that the internet has changed. The people who do it for money completely outcompete those who do it for passion.

One day your analytics show you're getting less and less traffic from Google, while other sources remain constant. What else could be the reason?

Yeah, this is a nice thought, but Google is still a ~$3T business and probably will be for at least the next decade or two.

There's no karma or justice in the world, only cutthroat businessmen. And Google hires as many of those as they can.

And this is the basis of an unfair competition case?

On what basis then should or shouldn't Google deprioritize rankings? If a website offers products for $1 and hides a $99 shipping fee, should they still appear in the search results?

Why fight in public when you can just commoditize your dependant competitor?

Happy to be corrected though if I'm misreading this!

It is entirely government owned and the largest electricity provider in the province.

Connect with just your friends and family, and optionally groups/pages.

Or maybe you buy multiple instead of just one, so you can hotswap any time.

Management and SWEs being paid very comfortable salaries to build critical features like... an online indicator, or products that just get shut down after a year because they never bothered interfacing with the community and focusing on a better user experience.

Or, as it's better known, resume driven development.
