Google Fiber is essentially dead. It halted expansion in 2016 and has only supported its existing locations since then. Even for a company as rich as Google, it wasn't financially feasible for them. How are companies smaller than Google even supposed to compete?

You can wishlist and download samples from the app on iOS, but any purchases have to be done from the website. On android, you can buy/download full books directly from the app.

This isn't a great answer, but especially in tech, the barrier of finding another job (i.e. the interview process) is so high, that it's not worth the additional stress + time commitment to really look for place that has equivalent pay.
When your stressed out by work, interviewing just piles on the stress and can decrease performance.

> The trick is to understand that no one cares if you're actually writing working code, and that the important thing is communicating your intentions and process.
This is absolutely not true. I've interviewed at many major companies (Google, Apple, Snapchat, etc.) and they all say at the beginning "Make sure you have working code". They don't necessarily care about syntax errors or spelling errors, but they absolutely want working code.
