>[...] I worked at Google

It's in the past tense.

Right. They asked why I thought they worked at Google and it's because they said they worked at Google.

As I said, I don't work at google. I worked at Google. I'm mainly curious how people identify me on HN (I've gotten email from folks who looked at my submissions to figure out my real life identity).

The reason I'm defending waymo is not that I worked at Google. It's that I think self-driving cars are a good idea and I don't want to see them invalidated through viral social media and "think of the children" press articles.

You asked why I thought you worked at Google and it's because you said as much.
