    Some engineers have never dated a real person. They've tried to, but it's hard for them to appreciate that real people don't necessarily use data to make decisions -- especially when it comes to love.

    Never dated a real person ?!

      The moment when you realise your partner of many years is in fact an android. :sigh:

        No, it's not. One gets used to the irrational thing called a "user" and "manager" very quickly, and no, I do not mind them taking important decisions based on horoscopes. I mind cleaning up the mess after the decision. So, you go dating and stop making decisions.

          Why doesn't the link go to a relevant article and what does the title of this thread have to do with any of this?

            That's just the journalist's way of being overdramatic; what they really meant to say was that the Google stores look unappealing (which is normal for their inexperienced first attempt at creating store layouts). The author probably spent all night thinking up the best way to call the store "nerdy-looking".
