My takeaway from the article was that Ernestine wanted to hire a good programmer and she focussed on just that. She did not consider the established conventions on what to do in such a situation. Interestingly, I have observed this to be

Completely agree. I am supremely confident that given the size of the market and the pace at which it is changing it is a great place to start a company. Also somewhat curious as to why lot of people are being so skeptical about it.

I am not so sure. I see two problems in the current situation here. 1. Pricing. The cost of most software is comparable to its cost in U.S. A windows 7 professional edition costs around 8000 bucks, which I think is pretty high. I am sure

Thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge. My instinct wants to me to join the startup but I am a little hesitant to miss out on having Amazon on my resume and the opportunity to get to SV, since it has been echoed many times here

Ideally, whatever your key/value is would have the toString method over ridden to meaningfully represent it. Alternatively, I could write it as for(Map.Entry<K, V> entry : map.entrySet()){ System.out.println(entry.getKey());
