We mistakenly sent out an empty test email to a portion of our HBO Max mailing list this evening. We apologize for the inconvenience, and as the jokes pile in, yes, it was the intern. No, really. And weβre helping them through it. β€οΈ

To the intern:
Hi! ππΏββοΈ
I'm an Engineering Director on Google Play. Our team's systems send the emails for the Play Store.
1. You'll be fine! As replies show, everyone breaks production!
2. Congratulations on helping your team find missing guardrail features and capabilities!ππΏ

Brutal! But... fair.
Google Play is ~9 years old though. And I've been on Play since 2013.π΄πΏ
I'm happy to share my strategy on launching and growing products from concept to launch to end of life, in another thread or Twitter Space, if folk are interested?
I miss Reader too.
