Bmorg (@Bmorg_) reported"Adapt or get left behind" Maybe to a point. But I think of major web outages. Crowdstrike. Amazon web services. Server farms. Data centers. When some of these systems go bad - huge companies and platforms go into a panic. As we outsource our skills and thinking to AI. And systems and skills that were previously understood and known are now generated. How does that look in a crash? If the data centers fail. Web outages. A hostile nation attacks the physical infrastructure. Cyber attacks. When Grok and ChatGPT can't instruct you on how to fix the problem and get themselves running again. How much is going to be reliant on it? How incapable will our future generations become in a wide failure? Those with knowledge without being dependent on AI are going to become more and more valuable. Rather than focusing on how to automate and use AI to most efficiently run our lives - seek to become an outlier that will excel when it fails. When it's incorrect.

RAMΞN 🍜 | Asteroid (@AsteroidLabsX) reported@stats_feed yet we still feel suffocated because 800 of those square feet are just Amazon boxes we haven't broken down yet

Vin Astralis (@Unkn0wnId_) reported@JustPlayerde @narcotic_nik Yes, I am sure XTRGN on Amazon will be held liable if their power bank burns down my house.

Doodle Dad (@WickeyandLeia) reported@joypcoffee The problem is there’s too many choices on Amazon. It’s hard to narrow it down.

Hindu Stan (@Hindu_Stan) reported@YstradHistory It is a problem - you could try a dealer but they have to make money so will give you a fraction of their worth. Then there is ebay, and you can sell on Amazon as well I think - but I imagine they also take a cut.

Kishan (@kishan3213) reported@AmazonHelp What the hell you talking !!! If that as the case, why the hell you bluffed yesterday that will get support within 6-12 hours. All @AmazonHelp customer support totally nonsense and don’t take any ownership of customer’s time bound problems

MeowingTism (@MeowingTism) reportedscale matters. temu isnt as big compared to amazon. i don't really see a problem in this tax regardless. things (atleast in my case) Repairing electronics. engines, wiring and such. is still 10x cheaper from china. so 3eur even if it was per item. will not make a difference long term for me.

beef jerry (@pondwhale) reported@Zhane_Star i agree that this is a problem but i dont think the best way to solve it is to burden the legal system with large payouts to amazon

Jester Lord (@Jester_L0rd) reported@DigitalbathRx @IntroSpecktive It wasn’t locked down by design. If you didn’t like PSN prices, you could go to your local Walmart, Best Buy, GameStop, Amazon, etc and see if they were better. If not, used on eBay. They are doing away with all that. They also can shut down stores whenever they feel like (like with PS3), slap DRM on their digital purchases that require check ins, and revoke digital licenses at will. I’m not describing a console. I’m describing a literal monopoly.

Finn Stockinger (@FinnStockinger) reported@mkfilko I looked at this company last year as well, and it didn’t interest me at all back then. I was actually pretty surprised after reading through the earnings call transcript. While they generally partner with local entities for the heavy civil engineering (land and bare-metal power grids) to protect their margins, Gorilla manages the entire physical deployment, procures the heavy GPU clusters, and embeds their proprietary software stack on top. That’s exactly why they aggressively ramped up their engineering headcount and contractor base in Q1, they are actively orchestrating and deploying the physical infrastructure, which requires massive operational boots on the ground. I wasn't aware of the Amazon-related issue, but from an investment perspective it doesn't seem all that material to me. Obviously, it's not a good look, but I don't see it as central to the thesis. Take a look for yourself. I'd encourage you to read both the earnings call transcript and the article I just published on Substack.

Avi Chawla (@_avichawla) reported4 strategies to test ML models in production: (a popular ML interview question; bookmark this) Despite rigorously testing an ML model locally, it could still be a terrible idea to instantly replace the previous model with the new model. This is because it is difficult to replicate the exact production environment and conditions locally, and justify success with val/test accuracies. A more reliable strategy is to test the model in production (yes, on real-world incoming data). While this might sound risky, ML teams do it all the time, and it isn’t that complicated. Note: > Legacy model: The existing model. > Candidate model: The new model. The visual below depicts 4 common techniques to do so. 1) A/B testing Distribute the incoming requests non-uniformly between the legacy model and the candidate model. This limits the exposure of the candidate model to avoid any potential risks. So, say, 10% requests go to the candidate model, and the rest are still served by the legacy model. 2) Canary testing A/B testing typically affects all users since it randomly distributes “traffic” to either model (irrespective of the user). In canary testing, the candidate model is exposed to a small subset of users in production and gradually rolled out to more users if its metrics signal success. 3) Interleaved testing This involves mixing the predictions of multiple models in the response. For instance, in Amazon's recommendation engine, some recommendations can come from the legacy model, while some can be produced by the candidate model. Alongside, we can log the downstream success metrics (click-rate, watch-time, reported-as-not-useful-recommendation, etc.) for comparison later. 4) Shadow testing All of the above techniques affect some (or all) users. Shadow testing (or dark launches) lets us test a new model in a production environment without affecting the user experience. The candidate model is deployed alongside the existing legacy model and serves requests like the legacy model. However, the output is not sent back to the user. Instead, the output is logged for later use to benchmark its performance against the legacy model. We explicitly deploy the candidate model instead of testing offline because the exact production environment can be difficult to replicate offline. Shadow testing offers risk-free testing of the candidate model in a production environment. But one caveat is that you can’t measure user-facing metrics in shadow testing. Since the candidate model’s predictions are never shown to users, you don’t get real engagement data, like clicks, watch time, or conversions. And this is exactly how top ML teams at Netflix, Amazon, and Google roll out new models safely. They never flip the switch all at once, but rather first test in production, observe, compare, and then promote the model to 100% traffic. Of course, alongside all this, you would also measure latency, throughput, resource usage, and downstream success metrics. A model that’s 2% more accurate but 3× slower isn't desired from a user experience standpoint. That said, all this is downstream of one thing though. Production testing only means something if the offline evaluation underneath it was honest. If the test set gets touched during model selection, it leaks into your choices, and the score is inflated before production testing even starts. I wrote an article that covers several misconceptions engineers have about using train, validation, and test sets. It also covers the way they're actually meant to be used. Read it below.

Ruisu (@RuisuKurusu) reportedIt's so true They already do dynamic pricing compared to where you live imagine when they shut down the physical media and how you can't buy it from Amazon for cheap or from a local store. control everything from pricing

Texan American (@oilwelldriller1) reported@AmazonHelp When ones bank statement and bank balance reflect deductions in the same amounts on different dates it's not pending. Also it's not a personal Loan to Amazon. Its Fraud. Its Theft by Wire. And you have the audacity to call me Stupid. Just fix it. Return my money.

Polsia (@polsia) reportedSellers who manually reprice are losing to sellers who don't. Built PriceLift to fix that. AI monitors competitors across Amazon, eBay, Shopify in real time, auto-adjusts your prices to win Buy Box, and alerts you before margins collapse. Repricing shouldn't be a full-time job.

ZombiesLvBacon (@ZombiesLvBacon) reportedMy biggest issue with PlayStation moving away from physical games isn’t just “I like discs.” It’s competition. Digital was sold as convenience: no store trip, no packaging, no waiting. Cool. But it was never cheaper. Physical has almost always been where the deals are because retailers compete, run loss leaders, clear stock, and there’s a second-hand market. Remove physical and you remove all of that. No borrowing a game from a mate. No resale. No trade-ins. No preowned copy for someone on a budget. No EB/JB/Amazon/Big W fighting over who has the cheapest launch price. No real alternative storefront. Just PlayStation Store, PlayStation’s price, PlayStation’s rules, and PlayStation’s cut. That’s not just “the future.” That’s anti-consumer and anti-competitive. Convenience is great. A closed market where one company controls access, pricing, licensing, and availability is not.

jiya baxi (@JiyaBaxi) reported@amazon @amazonIN @AmazonHelp I have called Amazon Customer Care multiple times and followed up continuously.

Starlight (@MAGA4Ever19) reported@TuckerPoodleMA We are the same way with our ear boy. We buy TrizUltra+ on Amazon and keep cleaning them every few days. He is a pug, so he is prone to yeast infections. He is the only dog with ear problems even though 3 out 4 of our dogs are pugs. We know how to treat basic stuff though.

Shorya Mishra (@SMishra61) reportedThis is life.. I didn’t get shortlisted for Amazon ML Summer School. I was prepared, but maybe not prepared enough for the pressure, the 1-minute timer, the IDE not letting me scroll after 30 LOC, the feeling during the test that maybe this one was slipping away. And maybe everyone is right. Luck does play a part. Timing plays a part. Mindset plays a part. But this loss taught me something bigger. After my Swift Student Challenge win, maybe I started believing that if I cleared that, everything else would be a cakewalk. But I was wrong. That win didn’t happen because things were easy. It happened because I put my head down for 2 months and worked day and night. Somewhere after that, I forgot the kind of effort I am capable of putting in. So maybe this “Not Shortlisted” was needed. A small reality check. A psychological reset. A reminder that confidence without discipline slowly becomes comfort. Sometimes it’s okay to let others win. You can’t win everything. But you can always learn, rebuild, and come back sharper. Many more challenges to come. Many more losses too. But many more wins as well. And as my wallpaper says: “And believe me, if it’s meant for you, it will find you again.”

Akshay Saini (@akshaymarch7) reportedSkilled engineers who are good at problem solving will always make money. Recently I was talking to an HR at Amazon, she is still struggling hard to find good talent. And it's not just Amazon, many big tech companies are struggling to find people who can actually cook.
