"So they are now outfitting developers with locked down desktops that run Excel and Word. But they can’t run an IDE or a compiler. The organization thinks you can get people to do software development on computers that don’t have the software to do so." https://berthub.eu/articles/posts/beware-cloud-is-part-of-the-software/

  'The cloud' is not just servers. 'Going to the cloud' could also mean locking into a forever sub-contractor - Bert Hubert's writings
  
  The very brief version: “going to the cloud” can mean renting services/servers that you could get from anywhere. There’s little lock-in. The same four words “going to the cloud” might also mean locking your operations to a specific cloud provider, whose proprietary services will now be part of your business processes “forever”. Be specific which variant of cloud you are signing off on! I’m mostly out of the office but this post was already in the pipeline and I thought it might be useful to get it out.
