Sam OvensGUEST
And I think I understood this, I think I told this at one of the previous ones, but how you know what a good culture is, is this story of Google in the early days.
Sam OvensGUEST
So Larry Page searched for something and the ads that showed up were not relevant to the words he typed in.
Sam OvensGUEST
He took a screenshot, he printed it off, he got a red marker and he wrote, these ads suck.
Sam OvensGUEST
He walked over to the engineers and he pinned it up on the wall and he tapped it.
Bobby CapucciHOST
Instead, they chose to wet their beak at a Jeffrey Epstein's palm.

Bobby CapucciHOST
Deutsche Bank had taken on Epstein as a customer after JP Morgan severed ties with them in 2013 after keeping him on as a client for 15 years.
Natasha SarinGUEST
I speculate that while I'm like incredibly sympathetic with the aim and like billionaires absolutely should pay much more in taxes, this particular ballot measure has some problems that you're already seeing play out in practice.
Natasha SarinGUEST
I mean, you're watching billionaires like Sergey Brin and Larry Page like up and leave the state.
Natasha SarinGUEST
That is going to cost billions.
Natasha SarinGUEST
not just from the wealth tax coffers, but also from the fact that they're no longer going to be paying California income taxes.
Natasha SarinGUEST
It's pretty easy for them to just pick up and move to another state.
Natasha SarinGUEST
We saw some of California's most famous billionaires, including Sergey Brin and Larry Page, who co-founded Google and were the richest people in the state, up and leave just because of the threat that this wealth tax might become law.
Natasha SarinGUEST
If you count the seven billionaires that have left so far, that's already a third of the entire revenue that California's wealth tax could have even hoped to raise.
Natasha SarinGUEST
And some researchers at Stanford actually think that in aggregate, this wealth tax is going to lose more money for California than it's going to raise.
Steve LeeHOST
Yeah.
Steve LeeHOST
Um, hopefully Larry pages behind it.
Steve LeeHOST
Um, is it one of the comments here?
David KingHOST
By the way, I saw a remembered, maybe it was an old tweet or a tweet that remembering an old occurrence.
David KingHOST
But in 2018, I think it was discussed.
David KingHOST
I think Larry Page discussed shutting down Google Cloud.
David KingHOST
He's like, if we're not going to win this and beat Amazon and Azure, right? Google's played third fiddle for a long time.
David KingHOST
So if we're not going to win this, like maybe we should just be out of the business.
Bill GrossGUEST
And what did Google do that was so incredible? Google invented a relevance algorithm.
Bill GrossGUEST
Larry Page invented this thing called PageRank.
Bill GrossGUEST
PageRank.
Bill GrossGUEST
Which basically used the link strength of how many sites linked into you as an authority figure as to how relevant your site was on a given keyword.
Bill GrossGUEST
My innovation was to come up with ranking pages by money, by sorting by price per click.
Bill GrossGUEST
That was a brilliant innovation for monetization.
Bill GrossGUEST
But Larry Page's innovation was a brilliant innovation for relevance.
Bill GrossGUEST
That was so revolutionary because search results had gotten so bad And that really brought a good result to the top of almost every search you did.

Instead of simply saying how many times does a keyword appear in a website, they asked which websites are linking to this webpage and how are important to those websites.
