"That kind of consumption is insanity and just think of the carbon footprint." Here here! I was doing well at amazon interview for IOT when I suddenly blurted out "but why would I want to work on this? Do we really want to encourage people to buy a fridge connected to the internet?" Couldn't help myself. Boy, you could see the manager's blood pressure rise. I didn't get the job..
Thank you for your honesty at the interview. We really need more people to point out to people in management that some ideas are just stupid and simply should not be done.
