      In late-stage capitalism, the cloud gets you off "your" lawn, when your Lawn-as-a-Service provider gets acquihired by an adtech company.

  I am not that old, develop most apps besides embedded firmware for the cloud and have been yelling at it from the beginning to absolutely no effect. In my experience it is often C-level customers who embrace the cloud with most enthusiasm. Interestingly the older generation often had the most reservations against hosting data on external systems. They are generally very big on everything surveillance though.

    Yeah, every so often the bizdev guy at my office who also serves as our POC for the web developers pings me about some Azure IoT thing or another, and every time I read the documentation I think "that's great, if only we had any of the problems that that solves."

  I think your comment is probably tongue-in-cheek but I still want to throw my support in with the person you replied to. The longer I've been at the company I'm at, the less interested I am in how cool something is and the more interested I am in the least effort possible to keep the app running.

  If you grow old and stay in this business, you'll be doing a lot of that too, I promise you.
