Let people decide what type of new (fake or not) they want to consume, is not up to the government to decide what the content that people watch/read/listen to. If you see something online that you don't like, look the other way.
I love this, is a bit rough around the edges, but I love it, is insanely fast, and the remote development support in a native editor is something im really looking forward to. I'm following this closely.
that site is full of crap, i live in Miami, and if rents were that high, people couldn't live here, there is not big tech or unicorns paying faang salaries here ma dude.
Maybe "private" was the wrong word, maybe personal fits better. But anyway, in your style, so you understand: Imagine being so oblivious as to think your employer have the right to dictate what you post or not on your social profiles.
Lovely to see the "how dare you to have 2 jobs!" boomer crowd going nuts. All those comments about , "you are destroying you career", and "you wont get promoted" , are so cringe. If you hire a dev, that is delivering and is a decent person. Why do you about care what he/she/* does on the side? That's like saying you should only be able to own one business. In the other hand, if a employee is not performing , you should fire him/her/* regardless of how many jobs the person has.
Can you tell me what company do you hire for, so I don't apply? People's LinkedIn profile are private to them, none of your business. I wonder if you just hire in 3rd world countries, or focus on hiring people in need with no leverage, coz, if you ask me about my LI profile, I will tell you to take a hike.
Why use databases at all? Use a txt file. Digital ownership and potential for profit are the value propositions. Most users probably don't care about the security, decentralization or databases at all.

Again, that depends on your org and team. I know many people(including PMs, UX, Data Science roles, etc...) who have jumped between teams in the first few months of being hired, and even after several years of working at the company. That doesn't make it "bullshit" , your experience is just different. Before I was hired, I read all the horror stories in TeamBlind as well, and I was surprised to see a different environment. Maybe, is survivorship bias, sure, but it just haven't been the case. For example is well known, that AWS is way more cutthroat than Devices, Retail, and the other orgs, but again, depends on your team as well. Most stories come from people who were PIP-ed. As I said before, Amazon is no Google or Microsoft regarding how they treat their engineers, TC, or WLB, thats for sure, but I have heard first hand stories at Facebook(for example) that are way worse than OP's. You can switch teams very easily, even across countries, my manager was able to move to a team in the US from India, being L4, so, there is definitely opportunities.
I also work at Amazon, and I can tell you, your experience was pretty unique. Some teams are worst than others, of course, but no one expect you to pick up a project by yourself, fresh out of onboarding and own it end to end. After you clear your interview loops, you get the chance to match with several teams (not always) and that is your chance to figure out what the team does, whats the situation over there, etc... if you were hired for a specific team, and you feel is a bad match, you can talk to your recruiter/hiring manager and they will find you another team. Is more expensive to let you go, after you cleared the interviews, than to send you to another team. Most teams are always hiring, they even pouch engineers from another orgs, etc... I'm by no means saying Amazon is a paradise, as I said, it highly depends on the team. But for them to fire you like that you have to be doing pretty bad, or maybe your manager felt you were a bad person. For other folks reading this: The team matching rounds are *very* important, if you get assigned a bad team, you need to react quickly, and move on. I feel sorry for OP, I wish him/{*} well.
