I created self-modifying code using Forth, decades ago. I presume they’ve done something much cooler, being Google and all.

Why are there so many people giving the people at Google so much credit for things that aren't really that amazing?

Search was not created by Google. Self-drive cars wasn't an idea that first came from Google, and there are plenty of others working on the same things that Google engineers and programmers have been working on.

Most things from Google, have been done before, and there isn't really anything that amazing coming from Google. The aura of greatness has worn off from Google, and even their earnings are beginning to reflect that Google isn't doing anything spectacular.
