It really sucks, but its true. My brother dated a girl from Boston who said that the volume of people here is exponentially worse. Than freaking Boston.

Its not just the amount of people, but the fact that they intentionally cluster up in places like grocery stores. They wont be courteous and let you shop; they will stand on top of you and breathe on you until you freak out and move.
I think it's the altitude man, makes people crazy

hmm so you're a Toronto grad? That seems good, but definitely would not recommend going into more debt for grad school. Try for a PhD program if you are good enough, otherwise only go to grad school for something that won't land you in the exact position you're in right now.........

I'm doing Georgia Tech online MS in Analytics. I have multiple CS degrees, otherwise I would do the MSCS. The MSCS is roughly 6k total and you're expected to do it part time. You likely do not have the background to succeed as it is, but you could try working towards improving your profile to get to that point

Haha I guess it doesn't matter if I say it, but it's Tesla.

(On my phone so I can't quote post 11) but it's basically a continuous improvement engineer job. Between the money, stock options (as they provide a lot) and industry clout, I feel as if the job could set me for life...and maybe I'm wrong,and it won't set me for life and I'm being too ambitious. I'd appreciate any feedback.
ahhh I see. Yeah I've heard they really expect you to devote your life at Tesla. I would say, probably worth it for the prestige. Was going to say, if it was Amazon, meh (assuming you're in software)

So here's the big thing you guys are missing...

AWS ideally wants to keep Parler since it's a growing app. AWS does not compete with Parler in any way. Parler pays Amazon a shit ton of money. There's no conspiracy to kill the free market, Parler is literally filled with domestic terrorists and Amazon and other tech giants are soon to be under heightened scrutiny by the new congress and administration. ie. REGULATIONS

I typically smoke, then just kinda go on Reddit or CE and keep refreshing. It's a waste of life and I don't really even get high the same way anymore

I agree with Twitter locking down certain accounts, but also agree with this post. Internet backbones should be neutral, should not favor or disfavor certain companies, with some restrictions. Parler may be breaking those restrictions and subject to scrutiny, but generally isp backends should be legally obliged to the first ammendment.
AWS isn't an "ISP backend" it's a managed software service which handles all the intricacies of dealing with tons of users who might want to do things at the same time.

Parler can go ahead and host their web app using GoDaddy or a closet with a few computers setup. It will just be a complete shit experience for their users.

I'm probably going to leave my current job b/c I hate my coworkers. My boss is like oh I love collaboration but is probably the least collaborative atmosphere I've ever worked in. And I want a prestige and pay bump from FAANG ideally.

lmao I highly doubt they'll be able to get it working without a hosted service, maybe they can duct tape it together. this really fucks up their entire backend logic as well
