The guy is pretty fucking smart. He made it to quantum mechanics, that’s much further than I made it in physics.
I know he is like a super villain when you think about the impact of his creation, but he has had tons of incredible contributions to the theory of businesses and software engineering.
From him, I will always keep the “Bezos API mandate”, which single handedly transformed Amazon from a book store with a web storefront into the tech behemoth that it is today, and eventually the knowledge had an impact on tons of other business and particularly in the theory of large scale system architecture design.
Read the following to understand the kind vision Jeff Bezos had. He saw a way to organize services that no tech lead at Amazon, Google, Apple, etc was able to see; it is now an almost dogmatic practice in Big Tech.

Hey Jeff, I'd love for you to solve the physics equation behind why your Amazon drivers just dump my packages haphazardly in front of my door, even when it's raining.
Probably you do not express your dissatisfaction enough. Amazon will never fix something that isn’t broken from their POV. If customers are happy getting shit service, they will continue providing shit service.
