What do you listen to when coding?
Me it is a combination of alt rock electronica and podcasts!

Why? What's wrong with AWS? I'm interviewing with them at the moment ...

You and probably 10,000 others are interviewing currently.
They interview thousands of people because they people constantly quitting. Average person lasts year-18 months.
If you make it to the onsite interviews its 5 or 6 in a row, where the people ask the same cult-like questions and follow up questions.

So in other words should be easy for me to get in
Still, can't be much worse than being an underpaid, overworked code monkey in a softward dev house / app sweatshop. Two previous co-workers ended up there and they're enjoying it. Since they're as pedantic as I am, if not more, this bodes well I think I hope, anyway.

Electrons toiling away in their silicon prison cells. Their tortured cries could break you heart... I find it so hard to remain positive with them around.

They really should learn to conduct themselves in a more professional manner.

Silence, mostly.
Or the screams of the damned. They are like music to me.
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

My missus moans because I'm not there, when I'm away at work, but when I'm home she just moans.

I agree. Silence.
Although sometimes I turn on some white noise.
Can't have music or talking. Very distracting.
Always worked in an office. The one job I got a cubicle after being promised an office.
I could not function. I left within 3 months. I could not focus.

Music. Generally rock or metal. Podcasts/etc are right out because what I need is background noise; an actual discussion about something would pull my mind off of my work.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?
