These episodes are so enlightening on the engineering culture, how companies grow stagnant and the root cause, Microsoft also had its decade of irrelevance, I see the same happening to Apple at the moment despite the tremendous profits, how to always battle your arch-nemesis - insights into why Microsoft has always been and will always be Google’s kryptonite, business models and experimentation that yields great products, and mindsets for success
These insights make you look at Google and legacy building in a different light
Thanks Ben and David, for another excellent series
