This has been posted before. Standard questions from a recruiter. The fact he wasn't able to work out how to play the game at this stage suggests he probably would have been cut out for the job anyway...
> You’re thinking with other software engineers and you’re thinking about how what you do and the APIs that you are giving them, how they impact how they write software.
or about things like this:

one would expect the person writing this to practice what they preach.
In reality though the texts and the actions could not be further apart, as evidenced by the links I provided.
Any WSJ/News Corp coverage of Google/other tech companies should be taken with a massive pinch of salt. They are direct competitors and have long waged a campaign against their influence https://twitter.com/thelancearthur/status/963090315472093184
You should judge the coverage based on the credibility of the WSJ newsroom (it's high) as well as the reporter (also high) rather than on who owns the publication. Especially if you have no evidence of them interfering with the newsroom.
The coverage of Google across all of Murdoch's media outlets speaks for itself. It's not exactly subtle. Compare the number of times some minor Google story has been on the front page of a Murdoch paper in the last few months (dozens) with how often the lead story in all the other anglosphere papers combined is about Google (I'd be surprised if it was more than one or two).
I say that as somebody who doesn't like Google and doesn't like this ad 'blocking' feature.
Google have been doing this for longer than anyone else and have logged an order of magnitude more miles (cf. all their competitors combined). They also have by far and away the most accurate/reliable technology as evidenced by their dis/engagement stats. They are years ahead of everyone else. As a separate company they would be valued at ~$70 billion- with huge upside
I think Tesla actually has more miles logged, although that's explicitly not autonomous. I bet Tesla is a close second in terms of tech and the ability to bring full autonomous control to market.
I don't see how people could be tricked to buy a google car with the expectation of the controlling software being obsolete in a couple year and left unupdated as the sensor technology improves.
That alone makes google a risky partner for any serious automaker - they're better of as a partner to a leasing agency than a seller.
Do you realise Firefox's marketshare was in large part due Google? It's not surprising that when they decided to go their own way they made rapid gains
Winelib is used to port Windows C++ projects to Linux, and Wine is intended to run full Windows applications. This project is intended to allow native Linux code to load simple Windows DLLs.
The closest analogy would be ndiswrapper but for userspace.'
