It doesn't make it to our devs. I just null the field and cry a little inside at how terrible our platform can be

So... how long you been at Amazon?

Hah speaking of that just had a bunch of difficulty with Amazon accounts last night. In the end I created a new one, it's just for a firestick that runs VLC and steamlink. But it was refusing to install anything.

I've heard that Amazon's IT is very siloed, with very little internal collaboration. I don't know if it's cutthroat competitive or what, but one guy I worked for said he had seen so much wacky work from people who had come from Amazon, especially if it was their first and only job out of school, he didn't even interview people anymore if they had much Amazon on their resumes.
