Stevey's Google Platforms Rant

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 real

For the last two years I've been using Ubuntu Linux for software development.
Last week I got a MacBook Pro and have been changing over. I run a heavily
customized vim setup, so the change was particularly difficult with regards to
my keyboard layout.

These step show what I did to make my Mac work like my Linux machines which all
have caps-lock remapped to control. I used OSX's built in keyboard setup tool
to remap my caps-lock key to be a command key, since command, for the most
part, takes the place of control as the primary shortcut key modifier.
