        // Needs work to make robust: check property type's class has default ctor and so on.

Introduction

This is a dead-simple way to test that GPIO on the Raspberry Pi is working. I have an SKPang Raspberry Pi starter kit A. But all you need is

• A Raspberry Pi.
• An LED.
• A button.
• A resistor, approximately 270Ω.
• Some way to connect these to each other and the GPIO pins.

Stevey's Google Platforms Rant

I was at Amazon for about six and a half years, and now I've been at Google for that long.

Sure, it's a sweeping generalization, but a surprisingly accurate one. It's pretty crazy. There are probably a hundred or even two hundred different ways you can compare the two companies, and Google is superior in all but three of them, if I recall correctly. I actually did a spreadsheet at one point but Legal wouldn't let me show it to anyone, even though recruiting loved it.

I mean, just to give you a very brief taste: Amazon's recruiting process is fundamentally flawed by having teams hire for themselves, so their hiring bar is incredibly inconsistent across teams, despite various efforts they've made to level it out. And their operations are a mess; they don't real
