Ex a sloppy as hell and inconsistent premise.
> engineers had identified DNS resolution of the DynamoDB API endpoint for US-EAST-1 as the likely root cause
its the point that wasnt the root cause. The root cause was ipso facto much more complex, insidious, and unobservably spooky action at a distance. I say that not knowing the true cause but being very willing to bet a bunch of AMZN that it wasnt as simple as “herp derp dns is hard and college hire sdes dont understand octets and delegation.”
Or this stupid citation if were talking about senior/long term AWS tech roles:
> Internal documents reportedly say that Amazon suffers from 69 percent to 81 percent regretted attrition across all employment levels.
The citation _appears_ to be about consumer/retail delivery and ops folks. And how 69-80% _of total attrition is RA_. While el reg has written it trying to imply 80% _annual attrition_ in a completely different org and business unit.
So I know corey isnt stupid, and hot takes are his paycheck. But does he think his readers are stupid?
