Can you make it so that recent comments are at the top rather than the bottom?

Both Google and Oracle try to use the "market approach" with almost no managers cited as a possibility in the article. At Google, it seems to lead to a lot of people with no direction and a lot of projects with inadequate resources. At Oracle, it led to outright warfare between departments and a total lack of cooperation. The difference is that at Google, failing didn't cost you your job. At Oracle, it did. So Googler's were independent but didn't have to compete for scarce resources the way Oracle people did. People seemed like happy lions at Google. They seemed miserable at Oracle, like bands of warring chimps always afraid of being annihilated by those in the next cubicle over.
