#12This reminded me of AWS in plain English https://expeditedsecurity.com/aws-in-plain-english/
This is a hilarious blog.
Honestly, it’s not just the icons but the names as well. A lot of them are completely unrelated to the product and make no sense

#13The person that designed these icons should be paid less. Maybe Bezos did it himself

#14I have red green color blindness (deuteranopia) and i have no idea if my answer is right or wrong on until i change my monitor settings to high saturation. (I usually turn that off because it messes a lot with other colors)

Amazon Drawer of Old Android Devices has a certain ring to it.

Re: AWS Icon Quiz
#18The 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…
and then there's "flip a coin" about whether it's "AWS Foo" or "Amazon Foo". I think I once read that Amazon Foos were things that were used internally, too, and AWS Foos were things only sold to pay for rocket fuel and yachts (I kid, I kid; paying for all those Graviton fabs is some serious $$$ too)

I use a variety of AWS services every day. I actually got a higher score than I was expecting.
Re: AWS Icon Quiz
#20Oh hell I have spent the last decade working with AWS and I still have no idea what any of the icons are. They are all complete shit. Literally the worst.
To be fair I can't remember half the product names other than the core ones either. Elastic Banana or whatever. Maybe Dynamo Donkey. I just don't know any more.
Edit: I'm also an AWS Architect Professional or whatever it's called now. Shows how a monkey can pass the certs eh?
