Damn, that is fucking stupid. Your post is bad, and you should feel bad.

I used to have a boss who would tell me how I had the power to do anything, to change the world, with my magical software-writing abilities. He didn't understand why I wasn't out starting my own business, with no one to tell me what to do. But there is always someone to tell you what to do. Whether it's your employer or your customer (and even that distinction is dubious), whoever has the money makes the rules.

I just get tired of people's laziness and lack of attention to detail. Not because I'm a perfectionist, because it causes problems. It often falls to me to figure out how exactly someone else fucked up. It gets old.

Sounds hard to me.

Instagram doesn't use Facebook, and is instead its own network.

Taking a photo is a creative endeavor, not necessarily an effort to flawlessly recreate how something actually appears to the human eye. Engineers frequently do not get this.

Now it will REALLY take off!

I don't think Google is on a good path right now, but I would majorly hesitate to compare them to Yahoo. Yahoo has dawdled for years with no clear vision of what the hell they are doing. In fact, you could argue that Page's current strategy is a play against turning out like Yahoo. It's a pretty clear vision, even if I don't like it, and it's certainly product-oriented. They're focusing on one product and streamlining all the random crap they used to do just for the hell of it.

I don't know what will happen with Google, but I don't see Yahoo's fate in their future.

Slow news day.
