    I work in IT My job is at some point going to rely on me knowing Amazon web services. I’d rather put a loaded gun in my mouth and blow my brains all over the roof than deal with anything Amazon.

    I feel the same about Apple and Disney.

      I have a very personal vendetta against amazon and due to the nature of my job, I’ve just had to separate work from personal in that nature. As much as it sucked

      AWS: Ass With Shit

      Seriously though, I feel like AWS obfuscates the idea of “software runs on a remote server” to an unnecessary degree, including terms. (Maybe I am not experienced enough yet, or have not drank the kool-aid)

        The only workloads that get value from AWS are hyperscale application delivery and big data computation and research and if you are doing those things you’re probably already a shitty business with no ethics. Normal people don’t need it and shouldn’t use it.

      I’ve been laid off and my alternative was to relocate to [insert place whete there’s been recent news stories about controversial land use] and effectively head the logistics for the construction of [insert tech project that has been drawing a lot of figurative and literal fire].

      I decided to look for the bag elsewhere.
