Yeah, I way overperformed on this test because it was multiple choice. There were 11 words I didn't know at all, and another 8 where I was uncertain to varying degrees. My score of 99/100 does not reflect my actual ability. Even the one I got wrong was a misclick.

> when I have my 2 programmers in office

I'd like to think that you see "my 2 programmers" as "my team" but I've come to expect phrasing like "when we have our 2 programmers in office". That perspective emphasizes that we're all in this together, rather than serfs working for the benefit of the lord.

The "my programmers" phrasing plays into my prejudice that one reason you like having "your programmers" in office is the exhilaration you feel in seeing them at your beck and call.

Indeed, passkeys would seem to represent a step forward from single-device to single-account.

I've always heard about technical debt at AWS, with thousand line functions everyone is terrified to touch, demotivated employees doing whatever it takes to close tickets without dealing with the root causes, and so on.

I presume that this rash of downtime is just the rickety structure inevitably creaking and breaking. It's probably too late now to fix things — dealing with legacy code requires patience, discipline, and understanding which the management of Amazon doesn't have. They'll just yell at people louder, and hold people "accountable" by punishing anyone where anything breaks.
