Howdy,
"Don't be evil." was Google's motto from 2000-2018 before it just sorta went bye-bye. It wasn't a big announcement either, nor, did it get changed to something even more obvious like "Don't kill people." Nope, they just took it down, and with more "adventurous" projects being brought to light, it's probably not hard to figure out why. Maybe they decided it's fine to be evil some of the time, or when the profit margins are looking nice. Who knows, but when one of the largest tech companies in the world decides not being evil isn't really a top priority anymore... Well, you better look alive.
As 2022 comes to an end, I'd like to personally wish every single one of you (who actually read this far) a Happy New Year! Thank you for letting me fill your inbox with cheap jokes and "had-to-be-there" Navy stories.
See ya next year (;
Steven
