Similar to how Sundar was promoted, isn't it more likely to be a promotion from existing leadership (one of the product leads/SVP).

Google is just an investor, it's not a subsidiary.

It usually isn't, Chairman doesn't involve day to day supervision and decision making. When Eric Schmidt became chairman or Ruth Porat became president, this was more a transition …

Jeff Dean became Chief Scientist when Demis took over his org. It's still the typical title as a stepping stone towards something else (often outside).

I'd see a lot more "nuclear no thanks" stickers in swiss German side than Romandie. I'd expect the strong anti movement from Germany to have some impact.

I assume taste was meant in term of coding. "taste" is still often the lacking trait that LLMs have when it comes to code design.

If the SVP says it, it must be true :) What's their sources? I'm sure they could find a couple of anecdotes, doesn't make it significant.

More surprising it didn't pass the "majority of cantons" either (both are required for initiatives like this), I would have expected it to pass (there are a lot of smaller/rural/al…

Seems like it's 4 per hour on Rotterdam/Utrecht, seems similar to Geneva/Lausanne with 6 per hour. In any case, I think commuters are fine with every 15 min, as long as there's eno…
