What does "the best" really mean? At the end of the day I assume they want to optimize for future success. In that case we humans have been proven to be not very good at that in many other areas. And why can't you select a th

I feel that the overall university admission process is broken. No matter how we evaluate people, we are prone to biases, and things like diversity and affirmative actions (whether you disagree with it or not) add another layer of complexit

Yup. Use a system like Redis/DynamoDB or even a traditional database to store the metadata and use random UUID for actual file storage. And tag the files for expiration/clean up. S3 is not a file system and people should stop trea

But then social pressure might overwhelm individual choices. It's gonna be harder for people to disagree with the mass, because they then can be punished easily. Given how our current society operates, I can't see this work anywhe

I wouldn't legalize all drugs. Meth is one hell of a drug. Same for heroin. I like how they approach safe injection sites to make up for not legalizing everything.

How can you justify discrimination based on somebody's origin in any modern society? What kind of negative "secondary effects" that anti-discrimination would bring to a society? It's not like this is a small country or t

Building internal tools - I've built enough internal tools in just a few years at Amazon. Those are never high enough in terms of priorities but improve productivity of the non-tech people. You don't need a heavy dev team to build

I've been looking for a VPN solution for my 10 person team and haven't found a good one that's lightweight and enables us to have a private WAN. I'm curious at the onboarding friction and pricing model. Also I got really

Yeah I should add the waiver footnote around J2 requirement. This depends on countries - my friend's one is very strict so he couldn't do anything.

My friend who was on J2 had to leave the US for two years despite having his EB2-NIW i140 approved. You cannot escape the 2 year home country requirement. You can apply for i140 but you can't get the green card/immigrant visa unti

I find it amusing that you are allowed to run arbitrary Javascript but can't run NodeJS on your machine. Sometimes corporate security can be a theatre.

We can sit here and argue all day around this and we still won't reach an agreement. On one hand, as a website operator, I want to prevent DDOS, spam etc... for my website. I can implement these solutions myself and do a bad job, or I

The gate is configured by the website owner. Not to defend the frustrating experience - but I personally prefer my website to not be attacked by bot. I'm just a happy Cloudflare customer.

You didn't mention other things security, scaling, keeping the service up, backing up. Securing a web application is HARD.

Yeah, but I dare you give out your account number to a random person. The bank security system here is ridiculous. I always stick to cashier's check for this very reason (and for accounting purpose).

Can somebody educate my the benefits of a stock split? In case of Amazon, they don't seem to mind the high stock price. Also, many trading platforms nowadays allow fractional shares (though you don't get the same voting rights wit

Yes, they can. However, that will leave their trails in their KMS service CloudTrail - unless they manage to exploit CloudTrail as well. That's a lot of barrier to bypass, especially because accessing all these services require you to

Not a lawyer :). USCIS website is pretty informative: https://www.uscis.gov/green-card/after-we-grant-your-green-c... I think it answers a lot of your questions :)

Not a lawyer, but somebody who went through the greencard process. The answer is yes. Same for E3 (for Australian). The risk is once your company files I-140 petition (petition for immigrant workers), you might be denied entry if you leave

I used to work for AWS and had to deep dive into IAM to build a feature. Basically Everytime you touch AWS your session is tagged with your credentials and has a unique ID. So everything downstream you touch has your session ID associated w
