S3:E4 - Jeff Bezos Stepping Down, Independent COVID Vaccine Systems, Ford’s Android Integration, and Tech Pricing Models
DevNews
Here is a taste of what @saronyitbarek and I talked about this week:
- Jeff Bezos' announcement that he is transitioning into the role of executive chair of the Amazon board in the 3rd quarter of this year
- Ford's joint deal with Google to use Android OS to power its vehicles' infotainment systems.
- Technology pricing models and what works best for different products
We also covered an additional, important topic with the help of a special guest...
- Cameron Yick, Software Engineer at Datadog and co-creator of the NYC Vaccine List: a service trying to help people find and get a COVID-19 vaccine. Cameron spoke with us about why they think the vaccine rollout isn't up-to-par and what it will take to change that — and much more!

Think the consensus for Amazon floating the Bezos step down early was that it was to distract from these revelations about how they're stealing the tips from their drivers ... independent.co.uk/news/world/ameri...
Great interview with Cameron Yick! I learned a lot from this episode!
