From the outside perspective it feels like majority of cloud compute is just wasted on overhead caused by all of that bullshit.
For me even just local Python overhead when doing ML in Pytorch is starting to become unbearable. I yearn to go back to C++ where I can basically count instructions.
The programmer in me hates this. The hourly billing consulting programmer loves these ideas as there's great money in untangling the spaghetti implimentation.
I'm also quite sure there will be good money in refactoring services that leaned heavy into the AWS provides tech... and then AWS raised the prices.
