   So, I have this theory. The big clouds see a looming drop in usage on the horizon, and they keep jamming gen AI into everything to try to stave that off. It's probably not going to work, but it's going to do enormous damage to the environment and the field of computing before it all comes crashing down.

     People are pretty over how expensive it is to run in clouds, how impossible it is control those costs, how hard it is to develop against cloud services, and how brittle their systems become.

     The conversation we're having about react is just preamble to the conversation that's coming about clouds and kubernetes.

     Cloud vendors know it, and they're trying to bake in immovable workloads to everything so they can keep extracting rent.
