This is such a gross techie statement. No it’s not. Human life is on the line, this is actual engineering. This isn’t writing some stupid social app on MongoDB written in JavaScript over the weekend. Google has been at this for years, and w

They had a package explode while in the packing center, even if they couldn’t get the tracking number from the package itself, surely it would have gotten scanned at least once going through routing. Easy enough to stop the whole warehouse,

The USA is so big and diverse it's silly to say that the it doesn't have any "real cities". I suspect New York City, Seattle, Chicago, Boston, Portland and others would be proof otherwise.

I probably can't say a lot due to NDA, but does it make sense to you that AWS or Google Cloud can't scale to the level of Uber, such that Uber has to build their own datacenters and write their own Lambda equivalent? Further, does
