At least Google engineers can invert a binary tree

  Yeah, surely atleast 12 of those engineers tested their SDK thoroughly for a minimum of 14 continuous days[1]. /s

  What happened to all the leather jacket boys from Google? They were setting the trends in Site Reliability Engineering some 10 years ago.
  See this 2016 article for the cultural background: <a href="https://cloud.google.com/blog/products/gcp/adventures-in-sre-land-welcome-to-google-mission-control" rel="nofollow">https://cloud.google.com/blog/products/gcp/adventures-in-sre...

    Bean counters took over, now it's maximum profit extraction until slow decline takes over. Decline in profit mind you, their software and service quality took a dive a while ago.

  Yeah, but better not spend too much time reading AOSP source code.
