is this the prelude to a terribly predictable romcom where, joined by naught but a surname and an email we fall in love before splitting up bitterly over the configuration of mx records?

so given the stadia news today, i think i was broadly wrong about stadia and it's importance to google, but i think i was on the money in the thread about why they did it and why it failed

✅ £9.50 lmao

globally normalising compensation is like putting on the hiring infinity gauntlet. massively juicing your ability to hire great people quickly is worth orders of magnitude more than the extra few weeks of runway
