Hi everyone!!! Last year I put together a list of classrooms to exchange valentines with! We mailed 1 valentine to each class and included a picture if we could, and a few things about where we live and things we do!
I currently have 13 classes signed up! The more the merrier!!
We have classes CA, WI, PA, KS, TX, RI, MI, Canada, New Zealand.

AWS cloud application architect. Had an on-site interview with AWS a few days ago and just got an email saying they want to talk to me about next steps. The role is cloud application architect but I want to ask them about the senior cloud application architect role. I have all the relevant experience for that role and feel like I’d be a better fit for that senior role. How should I approach this conversation? Is this even possible? Amazon

l am currently a rising junior in
college interning this summer at
Amazon as a Business Analyst. I
would really like to break into
product management and believe in
my 5 weeks so far I have shown skills
to back that up. Would it be
acceptable to ask my manager to
recommend me for a product

They know they can manipulate him and get what they want, which is essentially the thwarting of any regulations. And, in some cases, like Apple, exemptions from the tariffs he bizarrely thinks are a good idea. I can't imagine any of these people have the least respect for him, but they'll put on a public show of obeisance to get what they want. And in the end he'll be calling them all ridiculous names.
Money. They're going to do whatever they have to to avoid falling out of his favor and paying heavily for it.
Because money.
Bc first and foremost they are businessmen. You need to get along with whoever has the power. And who’s to say they even hated him? They followed the last administration that had power.
And Bezos is pro immigration and dreamers since his adoptive dad was immigrant from Cuba. I remember him speaking against Trump and promoting and congratulating Biden 4 years ago. I believe he posted it on his social media account. Was stunned to see him in the front row on Monday.

These people control wealth that is larger than most nations on Earth. They run the country and not the reverse. Most politicians have taken their money. Trump campaign got 1.5 Billion dollars (Kamala $2 Billion). Peter Thiel bankrolled Vance and made him a public figure. Trump isn't free to do whatever he wants and that money buys government contracts, deregulation, and more. Jeff Bezos lost a government contract last time and this time around he pulled Washington Post editorals against Trump. It's a quid pro quo and nothing more.

Just like that AI announcement. They let Trump announce their plans and he acted like he secured this investment. They were planning this anyway and one reason they preferred Trump (over Dems) is because AI requires way more energy than they previously estimated and the green new deal would hold them back.
To push for legislation that would benefit their businesses and personal income.
Trying to understand the circus on tv. Thanks for the insights!

To quote the great Randy Moss : “Straight cash, homey”. All of the charade about being anti-Trump was purely for show, plain and simple. Whoever controls the purse strings, you work with them.
Musk had a "Come to Jesus" moment when he saw Trump shot. The rest are just going with whatever is popular.
They will change with the seasons.
The money he promised them
At the end of the day everything is politics. If they think things he is going to do will benefit them, then of course they are suddenly his very best friends. In my opinion it is weak and fake but it is what it is.
My jaded answer says it's solidly about lining pockets.
However, there could be other non-financial motivations: primarily power.
