alt Hacker NewsI don't buy this narrative (notwithstanding that great commencement speeches are almost always hyperbole).

It proves again that all thats good in Google happened exclusively because of the two founders and that their CEO is not an effective leader at all.

Basically yeah, a lot of people just keeping the lights on
