I was at Amazon for about six and a half years, and now I've been at Google for that long. One thing that struck me immediately about the two companies -- an impression that has been reinforced almost daily -- is that Amazon does everything wrong, and Google does everything right. Sure, it's a sweeping generalization, but a surprisingly accurate one. It's pretty crazy. There are probably a hundred or even two hundred different ways you can compare the two companies, and Google is superior in all but three of them, if I recall correctly. I actually did a spreadsheet at one point but Legal wouldn't let me show it to anyone, even though recruiting loved it.

I mean, just to give you a very brief taste: Amazon's recruiting process is fundamentally flawed by having teams hire for themselves, so their hiring bar is incredibly inconsistent across teams, despite various efforts they've made to level it out. And their operations are a mess; they don't really have SREs and they make engineers pretty much do everything,

This is how to use the Black Python code formatter in VS Code.

Make a Python 3.6 virtualenv for running Black

Black itself requires Python 3.6 to run, but few of our projects are on that version. The VS Code plugin conveniently lets you run black from its own virtualenv.

I had to give a specific version of black this morning. I didn't yesterday. Don't specify the version unless it makes you (and if you do, give the current version, not the one from this doc).
