I was wondering about how Amazon has grafted itself to the U.S. government so looked it up and found that government agencies rely on AWS. Is that what your referring to?

Not really a program, but I put a script on aws that texts me in the morning if it’s a street sweeping day. Sometimes I forget to move my car anyway…
Re:The new hire who showed up is not the same person we interviewed

Whoa. I am new to interviewing and hiring developers. We needed to hire quickly and i interviewed someone, they did great and they were hired. And when they showed up for there first day in our remote zoom call I was very confused and thought I had interviewed a different person. I was the only person who interviewed them directly as they are a contractor. I brushed it off and thought maybe I was mistaken but reading this has made me rethink this initial feeling as I never mentioned it to anyone.

The consumer is also apparently a male.

Developers are also getting around the affordable housing requirement by paying money into the affordable housing fund. That way they are not actually required to make a certain percentage of there housing developments affordable.

The restrictive development rules you are referring to are height restrictions on buildings.
