    A lot of companies have been doing this for years. AWS literally sells this as a service: https://www.mturk.com/

        Amazon web services are incomprehensible. The names aren’t good either

          Yeah the whole AWS ecosystem has a super shitty naming. Everybody knows S3, but what kind of name is that? All the other services are no better

            Simple Storage Service

            E: I agree that their names are shit though. But S3 makes sense (once you know what it means). Just like boto3 makes sense (once you know what it means)

              Probably inspired by the Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing Company, or 3m for short

            Still better than EC2 and the likes. Where is EC1? And what about 3?

        OracleMaker was too problematic.
