Sometimes I wonder about how much compute power is wasted on building a static blog or whatever as a multi-zone, multi-cloud docker image running on Kubernetes with automatic scaling and redundant load balancing. Because that's what "modern DevOps" looks like
When it could just be a fucking VPS
Yes I'm sure your Grafana chart with live IP geolocation of web traffic as you get hit by HackerNews is very, very impressive
But is it worth the six figure cloud provider bill and SRE team running it?

@CursedSilicon@social.restless.systems Way too many moving parts.
@bersl2@furry.engineer I used to think I'm just not smart enough for not knowing all these endless moving parts
Now I just sit there and question if it's all really worth it as people around me build brittle things that come crashing down every other day

@CursedSilicon@social.restless.systems I want them to take what they've learned and simplify. It's far past time for that.
@bersl2@furry.engineer "Invent and Simplify" is one of Amazon's wretched "leadership principals"
And we can all see how that worked out for them
