Why Amazon is eating the world
> I do think Amazon’s culture is incredible and Bezos is the most impressive CEO out there<p><i>chuckle</i> Very very few people who work at (or have worked at Amazon) think this. Having worked with Amazon since 1999, I have never been impressed by their technology or leadership. They have been very lucky and had to pivot. AWS allowed them to build their online marketshare, not some CEO direction.
 i.e. [take chances in entering new markets, fail a lot] is not a particularly insightful strategy. Many companies do it when they have the capital.
