Re: Dear Google Cloud: Your Deprecation Policy Is Killing You
#2The answer to why this is, I’m beginning to realize after talking to dozens of Googlers working at Google as acquaintances, friends, former coworkers, HN comments and twitter personalities is - Google has an active disrespect if you’re not part of their in group. If you haven’t passed their tests, you’re basically an object of derision - a mark, an object just used for incrementing a CPM metric, or an incompetent, low-class buffoon who doesn’t deserve to have their jet setting luxury lifestyles. And unfortunately, everything trickles down from that.

I want to argue with this but I don’t think I can.

Sad. I want to like Google but the author is right.

#6I really want to like google cloud. Every time I use it things seem better set up than in AWS. I feel like I can't even bring it up at work though because of the issues with deprecation.

This hasn't been my experience, and I've worked there. There might've been a couple dicks like that but definitely not the norm

A "couple dicks"? It's endemic, dude. You can't be given everything you could ever dream of and _not_ end up like this.
By comparison, I have nothing. zilch, for my hard work. Neither do most people working on core tech at AWS. That's why they empathize with their customers (I'm guessing).

Including the most critical group of all - customers. It’s astonishing how little Google cares about its paying customers, at least when it comes to AdWords and GSuite, and GCP.
I think the Pixel division is the only exception, though I don’t own one so I can’t comment personally.

#10Google is an absolutely fantastic company from which to get free stuff. Gmail, Maps, Docs, Youtube? Mmm-mm good!
Buy things from Google, though? You mean, give Google money and in exchange expect them to adhere to some kind of standard of behavior, support, and customer service? Go get a coffee because you're clearly not awake yet.
