Most quiz systems check whether you typed the right string. I wanted to build one that evaluates whether you understood the concept. That's a harder problem. "A contract between services" and "an agreed-upon interface" are the same answer to anyone who understands APIs. To a string matcher, they're completely different. Closing that gap is what led me down the path of deploying a custom ML model on AWS Lambda - and eventually to cutting PyTorch entirely from the container. Here's how it went.
