Diversification is Google Cloud and YouTube and Google Play.

But their gross profit is up 7%. Look at what they are spending their modestly growing profits on:People: R&D +25%, Sales +16%, G&A +16%; Machines: Content Acq, Data Centers +18%, Traffic Acq +7%.

Then look at their revenue growth: Google Cloud up 37% and the bread and butter Search Adv is up 9%. On $162B, 9% is real money.

They are re-inventing themselves as a technical platform company, basically selling and expanding the platform they used to build their advertising machine which got them to this point. BTW, Amazon's AWS is, I think, the leader in cloud platforms, so competition is fierce.

That does seem like a huge increase in people costs, some of them overhead. Maybe that's why they laid off 10,000 people or so recently.

My baby is almost 10 weeks. She used to wake up once between 10pm and 6am, but the past two weeks she woke up 3 times a night, which really fucked me up. Apparently she needed way more awake time during the day. I started a sleep schedule (which I loosely follow, my baby needs more sleep than described) and it worked wonders. She slept from 10pm to 12, and then from 1 to 6 for the past 3 nights. I feel reborn!

06:00-08:00 awake, feed, play 08:00-09:00 am sleep 09:00-10:30 awake, feed, play 10:30-13:00 sleep 13:00-15:00 awake, feed, play 15:00-16:00 sleep 16:00-18:00 awake, feed, play. Try to feed twice so she's full for the night 18:00-21:00 sleep 21:00-22:00 awake, feed, play 22:00-06:00 sleep

She usually sleeps half an hour before bedtime, which is fine. She also awakes one time at night. The sleepy time between 6 and 9 pm feel like a blessing; you can eat and spend time with your partner, do chores or just chill. Good luck!

This year they had other expenses 4B. Last year they had other income, so the sign of the „other“ flipped.

No wonder Google is scared as heck for more people using a functional adblocker (uBlock origin). Their whole company would collapse without advertising. Kind of expected them to diversify more than they have managed to do.

It's 10%, and Google Cloud is slightly less, but the cloud revenue is deceptive because it includes Gmail subscription fees.

Google do not sell your data. They just don't. Never have.

It's waaaaay more profitable for them to deliver your ads optimized through your data.

Still crazy low at only 10%.

These Silicon Valey engineers need to let off steam in some way I guess

Yes, SankeyArt.com

I develop the website and used it to create this visual. Your use case is precisely what the website is for.

(*musically) You can graph - you can gra—-aa—ff- having the time of your li-I-if!

nice chart. Love these kinds of visualizations!

Why operating profit to net profit yoy changes don’t add up

Op. Profit 75B, -5% -> ~80B

Net profit 60B, -21% -> ~67B Tax. 11B, -23% -> ~14B Others. 4B, 0% -> ~4B

Total distributed 85B to 80B

how is that ?

I love that TX and CA can't agree on almost anything, except Arbys.

Actually a good graphic. Could have also maybe added annotations at the bottom of the trough and perhaps the most recent values. But pretty good already 😊

The buses is curious. Wonder what has happened there as it's probably something in addition to the pandemic effect.

How do you mean? At the bottom some modes were like - 90 to - 95%

You are looking at year over year. It made 1% more than last year.

Sure, but what are the profits

The $29B is revenue before any creator payouts, those would be listed as "cost of revenue".

What single individual paid $11 billion in income tax?

29 / 283 is 10%

Seems like people see public transport as vectors of infection so it took them longer to recover. Although i am surprised that aviation and rail have recovered 100% but bus ridership is still down 60%

11 billion in taxes out of 75 billion profit: 14.7% ... way lower than my tax rate.

TREND THEORY it’s an amazing idea
