Was Google's announcement of an unusable product just perf-review season theater?
aronchick · x · 2026-10-01
A viral quip notes Google publicly announced something the public cannot even use — like shouting "I'M NOT BEHIND" from behind. The poster's theory: October is when Google employees write their performance review packets. Another commenter jokes that the episode at least reveals who doesn't read the actual announcements. Light industry gossip/culture commentary rather than a substantive update.
