Google is 21 today. You probably canât do your job spend one day without googling something.
This book should help anyone understand how they work. Itâs a little bit outdated but it has been updated once already. Written by the people who were there from the beginning.
All 50 ideas from the authors in one Google doc here: How Google Works: 50 Ideas - Google Docs from https://www.howgoogleworks.net/uk
P.S.
@Viktor is a Xoogler 
This sounds like a challenge. Which I have now accepted.
On topic, one thing to keep in mind about google is that despite all its technology and services, it is at its core an advertising company that sits on top of technology. Almost the entirety of its profits is derived from advertising not any of its other services. They all serve a single purpose to collect data to sell more ads.
Also this Cloud thing is taking off, though behind AWS and $MSFT Azure. But itâs $8billion.
Yeah like amazon the cloud thing is an odd side business though make sense. But 8 billion is a drop in the water, something like over 100 billion is from advertising, something like 90% of their revenue.
Wing 
is so cool
- Alphabetâs drone delivery company Wing said itâs launched its first commercial delivery.
- Itâs the first commercial drone delivery, beating out competitors Amazon and Uber.
- The company is partnering with Walgreens and FedEx.
Also, 
delivery in 
Australia.
Burritos! Enough said.
Wing may not be contributing profits quite yet, but $GOOGLâs Q3 earnings will be reported today:

How will Freetrade handle this on their side? Has a stock on Freetrade been acquired before?
@Ian Iâve just attended an event where they announced this.
Given that youâre a young company that uses GCP and doesnât have much technical debt, you may be able to start doing data science with TensorFlow 2+ (and/or PyTorch 1.3+) and skip the 
TF 1.x releases altogether.
Nice! Thanks @engineer
Cache 
The project, according to a Wall Street Journal exclusive, is titled Cache and is expected to launch sometime in 2020. Citigroup and Stanford Federal Credit Union were named as partnersâas in the financial institutions that would handle the logistics.
Google Stadia is here 
Multiplatform game streaming FTW (maybe)
This is what OnLive was meant to be. Perhaps, OnLive was ahead of its time⌠it was sold to Sony and shut down in 2015.
RIP OnLive. Great concept.
But the new streaming 
is here. And itâs about video games. NVidia vs Sony vs Google vsâŚ
For $129 bucks or ÂŁ119, you get a Google Stadia controller, a Chromecast Ultra for your TV, 3 subscription months. Then you have to pay $9.99 or ÂŁ8.99 per month for a standard package or more for a 4K version. Plus you have to buy games, apparently.
Here is a list of available games so far: https://store.google.com/gb/product/stadia_games
Looks neat on a phone:
But there may be lag: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=google+stadia
CNBC:
I was able to stream two of my favorite games from Googleâs selection, âDestiny 2â (which I hadnât played before now) and âRed Dead Redemption 2,â in high resolution and with max graphics right to a Chrome web browser on a MacBook Pro, and to the app on a Pixel 3a and Chromecast Ultra Google loaned me for the test. That wasnât possible before Stadia, and itâs pretty incredible. To get these sort of graphics before, you either needed to shell out around $300-$400 for a console, or about $1,000 for a gaming computer.
Once youâve installed the app and chosen a user name, you can start to buy games. Theyâre not cheap, though Google offers slight discounts through Stadia if you pay for the Stadia Pro subscription. A free version of the service offers up to 1080p streaming of the games you purchase instead of 4K, but it doesnât include free games or discounts.
I wonder if there is any noticeable lag when streaming the games as opposed to playing locally.
Very impressive work from Google AI in 2019.
Fractionals canât come fast enough.
Agreed!!!
