Introvert = Negative emotions. Extrovert = Positive emotions. Negative & Positive as in batteries, not if it's good or bad.

Let me know if that makes sense I can rewrite
Why using the name of a cryptocurrency for something that has nothing to do with it??
Anonymous Speech: Literature, Law and Politics discusses the different contexts in which people write anonymously or with the use of a pseudonym: novels and literary reviews, newspapers and political periodicals, graffiti, and now on the Internet. The book criticises the arguments made for a strong constitutional right to anonymous speech, though it agrees that there is a good case for anonymity in some circumstances, notably for whistle-blowing. One chapter examines the general treatment of anonymous speech and writing in English law, while another is devoted to the protection of journalists' sources, where the law upholds a freedom to communicate anonymously through the media. A separate chapter looks at anonymous Internet communication, particularly on social media, and analyses the difficulties faced by the victims of threats and defamatory allegations on the Net when the speaker has used a pseudonym. In its final chapter the book compares the universally accepted argument for the secret ballot with the more controversial case for anonymous speech.
This is the first comprehensive study of anonymous speech to examine critically the arguments for and against anonymity. These arguments were vigorously canvassed in the nineteenth century – largely in the context of literary reviewing – and are now of enormous importance for communication on the Internet.

> One informant told [...] that his job involved ‘characterizing the reality of a situation with any description that is necessary to make that situation more palatable to some group that matters . . . Everyone knows that it’s bullshit, but it’s accepted. This is the game’ (Jackall, 1986, p. 145)

> the effort they need to put in to refute bullshit is often of an order of magnitude greater than what is required to produce the bullshit in the first place (Brandolini, 2014)
I don't recommend, as patents are today useless for innovation and serious work, although that's the exact reasons they were created in the first place
If they respond to you, ask them if they would be willing to review your draft. Write a draft of a whitepaper in the format of abstract, content, conclusion and send it to them attached. Only if they agree to review to you, if they claim that it's their discovery you have paper trail to prove otherwise and they'll lose their reputation, they won't do that. Try to get feedback of as many people you can, trying to prove your discovery have some flaws or that it was already discovered by somebody else.
If you have enough evidence that it's a new discover, now next step is to ask them for contacts of some credible comp-sci publication that you can publish it. Add them as thank you for reviewing your draft and publish it. After you publish, post in HN with the name of the journal for credibility.

Good, now there's more older and experienced people for me to hire in the companies I work. It's amazing how my view is the complete opposite, and I'm just 31 years old.
Honestly I don't think there's a solution other than pointing out when the bugs DONT happen, which is very hard unless you can produce an alternative universe to compare to ppl who don't understand software
Google outages are not that rare, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2020_Google_services_outages
If they had multiple instances of infrastructure, then yes the outage wouldn't be prevented but at least it would be minimized as only a few services would be down instead of the whole thing.
It's easy to prove it, when Google was down, except for those who depend directly on it, how many other services from the internet went down? None. If Google was truly distributed internally like the internet is, then they wouldn't have this problem. This is clearly a symptom of a crap thought out infrastructure. I know folks who work there, and if you think Google Services architecture is great then you better think twice. There are many smaller businesses with much better availability from that of Google.
Be aware that Search wasn't down, so it clearly doesn't share something in common between all the other services.
Clearly they're using the same infrastructure for everything which IMHO is a huge mistake
The costs to develop software are ridiculous and unrealistic. It turns out that if enough people act as ridiculous and unrealistic that becomes the new normal.
