    The heck is Amazon researching? I’ve run into CS articles / whitepapers / etc from eg. Microsoft-affiliated researchers (especially in programming language stuff), but can’t remember ever seeing anything from Amazon. Probably just means I’m not reading papers from the right field / subfield

        Right, it’s pretty clear some of it is probably something related to AWS but I wouldn’t be surprised if they did research into things like supply chain management.

        I went and did some searching and found https://www.amazon.science/, and it looks like my guess of either AWS or supply chain management was pretty good since I can find articles on both on there 😀

        Huh, I’m severely out of the loop on all these new space ventures, I’d never even heard of it (and it’s not even all that new, ~5 years 😅 )
