Very good perspective. It’s the “epicurean treadmill” of technology. 20 years ago, you would’ve spent days or weeks getting a server and infrastructure set up.

Very good perspective. It’s the “epicurean treadmill” of technology. 20 years ago, you would’ve spent days or weeks getting a server and infrastructure set up. The slower pace was due to natural constraints and generally speaking things are simpler within constraints. Now that you can spin up an infinitely scalable, globally available cluster of servers in minutes, the question rather becomes “what now?” It’s absolutely an objective improvement. Things have gotten better. But the human mind is not built to be satisfied. We always reach out for more, to push the boundaries, and now that the boundaries are pushed so much further than before, the questions and demands asked are much greater.
