can you provide a source for alphabet paying for youtubes operating costs? i work for a subsidiary of a different rather large it consulting company (80k+ members) and we very much do and have our own budgeting because we are a profit generating subsidiary
odd that alphabet would pay for youtube's operating costs since youtube operates at a multi-billion dollar profit.
and i apologize for presuming youre not educated in the industry. it actually came off worse than i meant. just some of your comments just do not align with my experience in the industry.
You should educate yourself on the topic. theres really more to it than "how much storage can fit on an sd card." operating at the size and scope of youtubes database and userbase really is a challenge and considering how smoothly youtube runs for the most part isnt "pennies" worth of operating cost
Plus, its already known from their earnings reports that youtubes profit mostly comes from ads
yousay free but none of the operations and technology that support the possibility to even receive and globally distribute that content along with the plethora of features are free, nor free to run.
its only group think in that a lot of the group independently think the same thing.
Groupthink is a psychological phenomenon that occurs within a group of people in which the desire for harmony or conformity in the group results in an irrational or dysfunctional decision-making outcome. Cohesiveness, or the desire for cohesiveness, in a group may produce a tendency among its members to agree at all costs. This causes the group to minimize conflict and reach a consensus decision without critical evaluation.
The reason why is more that you have to justify top performmers against their peers and against their role responsibilities. That takes work and many managers dont want to do it.
so... you were calling me ignorant because of info youve gathered from a friend? lol ...
yeah, lets not waste anymore of our time here. have a good day.
