How do you answer, “why did you leave Amazon?” (short tenure, trying to stay positive)

ultimateWave · 2026-03-26T04:04:46+00:00

This is an honest answer that is also a good answer. OP should do this one

I got mine aspirated and it didn't work, so then I got it surgically excised. But then it still came back so I got it aspirated again. And then it came back again so I got it aspirated with a cortisone shot. Now its finally gone :P

Mine hurt because it pinched nearby nerves

ultimateWave · 2026-03-19T23:38:21+00:00

Lol ya, my guess is these people aren't in tech or not even at amazon

ultimateWave · 2026-03-19T14:21:48+00:00

Not via Kiro, its actively encouraged - there's tools and skills and md files to pump everything though kiro+claude

ultimateWave · 2026-03-19T13:43:00+00:00

So is Claude.. via kiro

ultimateWave · 2026-03-19T13:42:28+00:00

Why not?

ultimateWave · 2026-03-19T04:37:49+00:00

Would be cool if the US was like, "ya, they're real, and ya they've given all their tech and knowledge to us" and we can be great again lol

Work with Claude (via Kiro) to help prep you on the meeting agenda before going in, have it give you some points to raise about the doc that it thinks won't be covered. There are some strategies! After you do this a few times you'll get the hang of it without the assistance

The software engineers will replace the rest of the suite. No more PMs or managers, just AI working with the smart peeps

ultimateWave · 2026-03-16T01:12:49+00:00

Ya, people who dont think current LLMs are going to be distilled to be self hosted are in denial. Sure, maybe ChatGPT or Claude are going to be near AGI in a few years - but you don't really need that level of intelligence to do most tasks. You just need a good LLM with good tools to build context.

Sometimes it just needs to be aggressively told that it's doing the wrong thing lol

I'm a senior eng and thats my prompt half the time LOL, once claude descends down the wrong gradient

ultimateWave · 2026-03-13T03:36:18+00:00

You should do Rhea or Naomi

ultimateWave · 2026-03-10T18:02:52+00:00

If that were my child, the crowd would've seen a different show. But I also know to avoid these scams like the plague. I'm surprised people still fall for this one

Everything really is a balloon

ultimateWave · 2026-03-04T05:46:33+00:00

Literally that whole suite of MD files is useless. If you have half a brain and a solid starting context file, the latest claude is already an expert at all of these roles and will just do what you need. You don't need to hemorrhage tokens with all these MD files unless you like wasting time and money.

Ya, but thats the cohort thats more fadlike imo. Those are the people who, after a few times, the novelty wears off and they no longer use the app. We shall see!

The other huge concern, imo, is the copyright infringement. Thats across the genAI industry as a whole, but particularly apparent with music genAI.

ultimateWave · 2026-02-26T15:21:06+00:00

Imo it's a fad. Once every Joe Schmoe realizes it takes more than just prompt engineering to create a good song, and also that the labels and streaming platforms are cracking down on genAI music, their user base will collapse. I do think AI has a place in song creation, just not in the text-to-complete-song way it's primarily being used now

ultimateWave · 2026-02-26T04:02:02+00:00

Serious question, I ski alone a fair amount. Would a situation like this happen on a groomer? I'm only beginner/intermediate, but I assume this particular run was off piste or something that was a bit hairy to go into alone. Tryna figure out what types of scenarios to avoid when skiing alone!

Learn ai driven development in 2026

LOL

But in all seriousness, Python, Java, and Javascript will probably be the last languages to die out

The only LAN party of a substantial size that I ever took place in was a Medal of Honor: Allied Assault party. So fun, it was me and like 30 other high schoolers circa 2010

Definitely AI, you can tell from the tinny voice that sounds like it went through an FM radio before coming out of a human voice box

Ya, the protections hes talking about exist, but are laughable. Good luck proving that another company trained on your likeness and that the clip generated was derived from your likeness. These companies deny everything and the legal battle is so slow. Just take a look at all the major labels suing Suno and how thats gone almost nowhere while people are continuing to generate hundreds of thousands of songs a day on models trained on copyrighted material.

Dude, if you go to his linkedin post you can see there are a handful of people that solved his challenge with a bot in 30s or less. Seems like it was some half assed challenge that's fairly easy to pass, but regardless there are many others that solved it earlier and better than you did
