But how we actually take advantage of the hardware feels really hard. How we create stable reliable practices. The cloud with its API and web console tooling offers such access, such views. I'd love love love to see us wake up, realize what the real baseline for running software, running systems is.
I feel like right now there's a huge propoganda campaign, that's keeping the cloud in its spot as an unquestioned go to for real uses: "you may not need Kubernetes." This drive for less ambition shows up at every turn, incessantly, and we rarely hear the basic sense: we must operationalize computing with cross-cutting platform, that afforda us broad visibility control and autonomicity. The possibility of winning big is being drowned out by persistent regressive naysaying.
