AWS Icon Quiz

The only reason I can play this game is because "Icons with Labels" is impossible to deal with in the AWS console. I _really_ wish I could just set the labels myself.

"AWS Simple Email Service." Were you worried I would forget it's an AWS service? Or worried that I wouldn't remember it's simple, or a service? Do you offer any other email service? Can I please just rename the label to "SES"?

First world cloud console problems, I guess.

Sometimes it feels like having 2000 products with obscure names and overlapping responsibilities is the end goal

Loll makes me feel like a bad engineer

It's possibly a sign that you are a good engineer. If you are using infrastructure-as-code, whether that is terraform or cloudformation, you are used to looking at a yaml or json file that does not include icons. If you have automated everything to the point that you rarely need to log into the AWS console, you probably don't regularly see these icons.
