yes, they literally logged everyone out, removed 2FA, and on the new login, users had to re-add 2FA

As a Snr Eng in one of the FAANG, my _personal_ list:

- interesting problem domain (which does not necessarily mean trendy): this is about selling to others why the problem and your company matters

- equity/career progression: (controversial comment incoming...) a strong Snr in a FAANG will most likely be a CTO/VP type of leader in a startup, so provide generous equity

- freedom in terms of decision making: present (business) problems and let people go and tackle them, you don't want to be micromanaging

- freedom in terms of work/life balance: let people manage their schedules, being fully remote, location independent - stuff that most FAANGs will struggle to compete with

Does anyone know how exactly is the Police integration done with Rekognition? I mean, they must have it integrated into their IT systems, right? Who did that integration? AWS itself? Or some consulting companies? Or the PD's Tech Department?

The OP needs to put a date on the article, because AFAIK things are very different in 2019.

Also, it's interesting how they equate "experimentation" with "open source".

Quote of the Day:

"The seventy percent of New Yorkers who supported Amazon and now vent their anger also bear responsibility and must learn that the silent majority should not be silent because they can lose to the vocal minority and self-interested politicians."
