My in-store Whole Foods purchases are now showing up in my Amazon order history page and while I fully expected this to happen at some point I am just not sure how I feel about it now

Dear Whole Foods aka Amazon. You know my entire grocery shopping history, you know how much tofu I buy, so why on earth would you think it's appropriate to send me ads for ground beef? #vegetarian #ads

I finally imported my amazon purchase history into my own database so I can search for past purchases by amount, which it turns out is a key component to how I do my accounting.
Previously I was searching my email for amounts then clicking thru to see the order details because amazon stopped including them in the email. So much less clicking now! -
I Tried to Block Amazon From My Life. It Was Impossible. (gizmodo.com)"Its global empire also includes Amazon Web Services (AWS), the vast server network that provides the backbone for much of the internet, as well as Twitch.tv, the broadcasting behemoth that is the backbone of the online gaming industry, and Whole Foods, the organic backbone of the yuppie diet.

I've been really enjoying the Flash Briefing in the mornings, but I have a request. There are several feeds which don't update as often as others (some update multiple times a day, some every few days). When I'm listening to the news in the morning, it's incredibly frustrating to hear a duplicate of what I heard the previous day. However right now my only option is to tell Alexa to skip that item, or just remove it from the list.
I would prefer if Alexa could keep track of whether she's already played a particular item, and quietly skip over it if there is nothing new in that particular feed. This would make the experience much better, and I'd be able to add a lot more flash briefing sources without worrying about hearing old content! -
After reading this, I'm seriously considering publishing my conference videos on Amazon's new Video Direct! http://techcrunch.com/2016/05/10/amazon-takes-on-youtube-with-launch-of-amazon-video-direct/
