How do you feel about Google's new development center in Reston, VA?
There are no desks or walls to allow for maximum openness and comfy for the software developers.
So how do they work, those fucking hipsters?

It doesn't sound like a developement center for people..
It feels like a training ground for their AI which will analyze and learn human behaviour.

They sit on the sofa with their rMBPs, anon.
Is that the portal themed airport?
> No desks
Are they all a bunch of hunched back betas or something?
>>53536793
Nice concept. It will provide horrendous work environment where people won't feel safe and won't want to use it but rather work from home or anywhere else.
>>53536793
the only thing i really want to do in that room is watch people have sex on those couches.
>>53536947
Looks more like a passing through point on Mirrors Edge
That's the Japanese airport you stupid fuck.

So I guess all the AI would learn is how to fuck? Imagine the AI being completely screwed up and all it could do is say "yaranaika".

Imagine this:
>shy guy and a bookworm girl get seated on the same couch
>on the first day, they talk a bit, and start doing their thing
>over the next weeks, they slowly open up to eachother
>they spend more time communicating with eachother than writing code
>the guy helps the girl with her code and vice versa
>they both don't come a few days in a row
>they look even happier together
>>53536793
People can move around freely, but there's no reason to do so as every part of the room is the same as every other.
Fat engineers can't walk 5 feet without needing a bench.
T-they want to put the peopel in teh cloud.
It's their AI that's making them do it.
It's in control now.

no wonder they're killing themselves so much
it looks so depressing

>>the guy helps the girl with her code
This is sexist, you sexist pig.
>>53537130
>needing help
Fucking plebs I swear to god

*when they come back
Where do they charge their laptops? What if they're doing something important and their battery starts to tun out? Do they make a mad dash for the charger room?

Robots!
>no desks
This is moronic and memely.

They have wireless power genies that pop out of the ceiling and fill up their tank while they take a hookah break.
Why would a company like Google even bother with offices?
Except for some management, could most employees work just as well from home?

It creates corporate culture and cohesion. Sure if you're just a codemonkey nobody cares, but all others will require more engagement with the company.
>There are no desks or walls to allow for maximum openness and comfy
Total lack of privacy is not comfy.
Are you sure this isn't some sort of meeting room?
>>53536891
How the fuck is that more comfy than a desk?
> no desks
>Open space offices
>>53537653
I'd imagine the couches have plugs on the side

>things that will never happen to anyone in computer science
>>53538517
Why would I work at home when I have numerous Ph.D holders within a 50 ft radius of my desk?
>>53538638
This.
>>53536793
looks comfortable for all of 5 minutes.
>>53537653
Laptops? How quaint! Those are google neuro-base beds, you lie down on them and they connect with your neural interface via 300 GHz. Coziest way to jack in if you ask me.
It's all part of google's 'people in the cloud' business.
>>53536793
Those couches look really uncomfortable.
>>53538888
nice quads

quads speaks the truth

Let us dream anon
>>53536793
I would be fucking pissed if I didn't get a decent desk and chair to do shit with a desktop and a laptop to carry around and going out whenever the fuck I want to.
Kudos to the lying piece of shit that sold this terrible idea to the upper management and got a promotion with a trip to Thailand to fuck boys while doing cocaine.
>>53538638
That's the new species Homo gnu/linux technologis?
Most retarded thing I've seen in a while.

Nice Airport Terminal you monumental faggot.

5000 software engineers to change small things in YT that were perfect
