    YouTube’s attempts at blocking Adblockers are pathetic

    I’ve long maintained that the majority of programmers working for Alphabet/Google/YouTube spent more time learning how to get the job than how to do the job well. There is a lot more to coding than “Cracking the Coding Interview.”

    It’s not about building cool things over there. Is has not been that way for a long time. They just want the money and reputation.

      I partially disagree, the average developer at google is very competent, yet, their work pipelines must be so long and complex that such talent gets somewhat diluted
