- Companies better than Amazon AWS (new grad) Got the standard amazon return offer (~155 TC Seattle, equal to around 170 SF). My team is surprisingly chill so I don’t mind returning.

- Do other tech companies value your AWS expertises Being in a non-AWS org at Amazon, I’ve built many services based on quite a selection of AWS offerings, and I’m wondering would it be weird if I am interviewing other tech giants on systems design and I describe my solution based on those AWS offerings? I mean other cloud may have similar products,
- Why don't we see more companies running their own hardware instead of building on AWS? Look at Twitter. 500m tweets per day. Each tweet, 280 chars. Let's assume common English characters because I just want a rough idea, so 1 byte per char under UTF-8. So 4 tweets is 1,120 bytes. Let's say 1000 for now. Let's call that one kb, so you store 4 tweets in 1kb. 4 tweets for 1kb 4,000 tw

- What companies are worth jumping ship to from AWS? Bored at Amazon, team is trash, L6 promo is at least 18mo. Even then with TT and crazy stock growth not worth much.

- Should Amazon spin off every AWS product into it's own company? I'm only half kidding. AWS has similar growth to the SaaS companies with ski-high valuations. Some of the products probably have 100% YoY growth. Spin them all off into an IPO (Amazon would still be majority shareholder), see the stock price 2x as stuff like S3, Redshift, etc. becomes a 100b+ compa
