The kinds of people Google likes to hire are "entertained" by stuff like really difficult technical problems and making useful stuff that people actually use. I'm not suggesting they need to take their staff to the movie theater.

So then you mean they are making a mistake when they hire people that would be bored, instead of finding difficult technical problems and making cool useful stuff. I think you're right.
