    Isn't this a bit of lame pr to share a very general blog post on hacker news? There are some rough milestone mentioned, what they plan to achieve in the future. But nothing about achieved metrics, track records, finished projects or even linka to this projects. This creates an impression of just greenwashing.

    I'm sure they will hold to these commitments with the same conviction they showed for "don't be evil" and their carbon-neutrality pledges. See the strength of google's commitments and the value of their word:

    - https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2026/04/google-broke-its-promi...

    Their new commitments are doubtless exactly as valued as their previous ones: not at all.

      This is the same company that made a 3D map of the moon ~20 years ago for fun. Now we have their very serious solution represented via a non-clickable, low-resolution map and some photos of a river. They stopped caring about hard problems awhile ago.
