This is one of those things that everyone knows is true, but no one can acknowledge it openly. Without vested interest it is simply natural to put one's interest ahead of the company one works for. In fact, doing extra, or normalizing

Hard disagree for all definitions of work I know. Imo nor does not hold for the truly elites (top .1%) neither for the upper middle class (top 10%). Do you mean some millionaire celeb or middle manager is working more than people doing cons

Title is misleading, delivery is done by SES which is not built by the author. Might be ignorant here, but to me the article reads like an excuse to use serverless. What I really miss is the testing story though, in my admittedly limited ex

Personally my emotional reaction to ads is to go out of my way not to buy from the advertiser if possible.
