yeah, i hate this style of writing. it's designed to make people feel dumb, but if you're smart enough to actually parse the language, you realize they're not saying anything. also, they just draw the wrong conclusions. The Cloud is composed of multiple levels of code, and no one person can see, let alone interpret, the full stack. this isn't true. i've worked with a handful of people throughout my career that could tell you exactly how the entire thing works, from x86 registers all the way to javascript running in the browser and everything in between, including details of the content addressable memory on the layer 2 switches! certainly not literally everything that exists, but they understand the entire stack for sure. i suspect there are at least one of these types that exist at every 'cloud' company actually building products. i think to a lay person technology just seems impossible to fully understand because they do not understand even the most basic things. it's just projection.
