    Most Amazon sellers donโ€™t have an image problem. They have a visual production limit. One SKU is manageable. You brief a designer. Create a main image. Make a lifestyle image. Add a benefit graphic. Fix the detail shot. Prepare A+ visuals. Annoying, but manageable. Then the catalog grows. 20 SKUs. 50 SKUs. 100 SKUs. Now the issue is no longer โ€œcan we make this product look good?โ€ The issue becomes: Can we keep the brand consistent? Can we launch faster? Can every image explain the product clearly? Can the team stop rebuilding the same workflow from zero? Thatโ€™s why the Anthropic / SpaceX compute story is interesting. Itโ€™s not just about AI getting stronger. Itโ€™s about removing the production ceiling. For Amazon sellers, where does your image workflow usually break first?

    First, let's be clear. When I say AI books, I don't mean 40-page PDFs thrown together in an afternoon. I mean 80โ€“150 page books built around real problems people are already paying to solve. Quality is the only thing that compounds on Amazon.

    @AdsoOfBelk Yeah so you havenโ€™t been charged yet? And you can ask for a refund? Iโ€™m confused you havenโ€™t even been charged yet so thereโ€™s no money to even give back. It says at the bottom. Again itโ€™s a semantics issue and to be clear itโ€™s something Amazon should fix

    The thing engineers who crack Google, Microsoft, Meta, Amazon, Apple, Uber etc in their first attempt do that nobody in your prep group is talking about. The ones who crack it on attempt #1 share one habit that almost nobody else has. The answer: They prepare after taking the mock interviews, not just the interview. After every mock interview, they write down: โ†’ Where exactly did I slow down? โ†’ What did I say when I got stuck? โ†’ Did I clarify before coding or just dive in? โ†’ Did I talk through tradeoffs or just pick one? โ†’ What would an ideal candidate have done differently here? Most people finish a mock and think: โ€œthat felt okayโ€ or โ€œthat was bad.โ€ The engineers who crack big tech on attempt #1 finish a mock and think: โ€œHere are the 3 specific things I will do differently next time.โ€ Thatโ€™s not motivation. Thatโ€™s a system. Systems and correct preparation beat just hard work and talent. Every time. Thatโ€™s why mock interviews are so important and valuable and that can be a difference between an offer or failure. Are you doing post-mock debriefs? Be honest below ๐Ÿ‘‡

    @hatfieldtweet What I think is going on is Amazon is selling โ€œReturnsโ€ in bulk that have minor printing or construction errors. I recently bought about 15 indie books and at least two or three of them had bent, or improperly cut covers. I returned one and while it is still readable I wanted an undamaged book. Anyway. I think third party vendors buy bulk return pallets from Amazon. Pallets filled with things too expensive to ship back to a central warehouse. So amazon sells them by weight and covers their losses. The third party goes through the pallets. When they find a book they check its price on Amazon and price it accordingly. They have the warehouse space. They can wait. This is mostly an informed theory and I have not evidence or proof of the actual reality.

    Easy crashes out over the news of Coinbase blaming AWS for its trading outage โ€œCoinbase is a $48.7B company, which is absolutely ridiculous, and you have outages. How are you worth almost $50 billion and not using east-west location services? They're only in Amazon East, which is in Virginia, so if Virginia goes down, you're beyond smoked.โ€ โ€œCoinbase stock ($COIN) is down 20% YTD. Obviously, if crypto rallies, Coinbase will be fine, but my argument is: why wouldnโ€™t I just buy Robinhood, which is a much better financial product?โ€ โ€œYou're having issues as a $50B company and still canโ€™t get your **** straight. Itโ€™s absolutely pathetic. Iโ€™d almost want to short Coinbase.โ€

    @StefanFSchubert I think the larger problem is the anti-billionaire left's conception of the current moment in time. They don't wonder how we got iphones, or why you can get anything from Amazon in two days. They take the state of the world as a given, a thing that always would have been.

    @LivesVentura @Wolverstein @brad_polumbo Amazon doesnโ€™t interview. The moment you put in your application youโ€™re hired. Even though the company hasnโ€™t the slightest clue if you are able to even do the job. Donโ€™t apply for warehouse work if you think youโ€™re going to be able to sit down. Itโ€™s not going to happen.

    Got a text at 5:47 am on Sunday from a guy running a brand doing $90k/month on Amazon. His agency accidentally burned $43k in Sponsored Products spend. Thatโ€™s more than he typically spends in two weeks. And it was all gone in just 2 days because of the weekend. During those 2 days, there were: - no alerts set - no one monitoring the account - no second pair of eyes over the weekend Those 2 days were the longest he had ever felt. And what actually caused all of thisโ€ฆ the agency removed bid caps to โ€œcapture more impression share for Q4โ€ And clocked off on Friday at noon till Monday morning. He asked, โ€œis there something you guys can help with?โ€ I told him the spend was GONE. Once Amazon serves the impressions and registers the clicks, that money is done. You can dispute fraudulent clicks. You canโ€™t dispute your own agencyโ€™s bidding decisions. So we got him on the phone with his ad team, killed every active campaign, rebuilt the account structure from scratch so he could go live Monday with proper guardrails. He was lucky he checked when he did. Iโ€™ve watched brands bleed like this for 8 to 10 days before anyone noticed. The agency assumed the brand was watching. The brand assumed the agency was watching. Funnilyโ€ฆ nobody was watching. This all couldโ€™ve been avoided if they had AI agents running and monitoring his account 24/7 to flag the issue instantly. Thatโ€™s why at Lumian we run both teams of AI agents (for 24/7 monitoring) + humans (step in when needed).

    @AmazonHelp It feels as though Amazon's customer care has shut down completely. So far, I haven't received a single call from Amazon to address my issue. And if I try calling them, they have no answers. Shutting down the service entirely would be a better option.

    1/n AXISCADES makes its money by designing, building, and delivering defense electronics, aerospace components, and industrial electronic systems. The core transaction: a customer (DRDO, HAL, BEL, Airbus, Amazon, Apple) pays for either a development contract (lower margin, 18-24 months) or a production contract (higher margin, 5-10 year recurring supply). Revenue splits across three segments: Defense at 35% of 9M FY26 revenue, Aerospace at 32%, ESAI (Electronics, Semiconductors, AI) at 11%, with the remaining 22% from non-core verticals being wound down. The company is in a deliberate structural pivot: in H1 FY25, products were 32% of revenue; by 9M FY26, products are 39%. The stated target is 80% products and manufacturing by FY28.

    Sites like Amazon are awash in poorly-formatted options for public domain books, and projects like Gutenberg are also of mixed quality. Standard Ebooks solves this problem by providing high-quality, formatted books for free. Check them out, and consider supporting them!

Costcoโ€™s net margin was 1.7% โ€” a fraction of Walmartโ€™s 3.6%. Wall Street applied three heuristics: โ€œthe company has low margins,โ€ โ€œitโ€™s expensive,โ€ and โ€œCostco has a cost problem.โ€ Sleep saw the opposite. He saw a ๐›๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ข๐ง๐ž๐ฌ๐ฌ ๐ญ๐ก๐š๐ญ ๐ฐ๐š๐ฌ ๐๐ž๐ฅ๐ข๐›๐ž๐ซ๐š๐ญ๐ž๐ฅ๐ฒ ๐๐ž๐Ÿ๐ž๐ซ๐ซ๐ข๐ง๐  ๐ฉ๐ซ๐จ๐Ÿ๐ข๐ญ๐ฌ ๐ญ๐จ ๐ž๐ฑ๐ญ๐ž๐ง๐ ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐ฅ๐ข๐Ÿ๐ž ๐จ๐Ÿ ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐Ÿ๐ซ๐š๐ง๐œ๐ก๐ข๐ฌ๐ž โ€” passing scale economics back to customers in the form of lower prices, which deepened loyalty, which drove volume, which funded more price reductions. He called it the robustness ratio: the share of economic benefits going to customers and employees versus shareholders. Costcoโ€™s was 5:1. Five dollars reinvested in the competitive position for every one dollar flowing to shareholders. Sleepโ€™s conclusion was simple: the low margin was the moat. The under-earning was the opportunity. And the investors who couldnโ€™t see past the income statement were systematically mispricing one of the greatest compounders of the last 25 years. He wrote that what Wall Street wanted โ€” for Costco to tilt the ratio toward shareholders to satisfy the โ€œquarterly EPS junkiesโ€ โ€” would actually weaken the business, not strengthen it. Bezos understood the same thing at Amazon. For over a decade $AMZN reported near-zero net income while reinvesting every dollar into logistics, Prime, and AWS. Wall Street asked the same question every quarter: when will this company become profitable? The answer was always the same: when we CHOOSE to be. The margin was there. The decision was to deploy it into infrastructure that would make the business impossible to compete with.
