I do love that this is literally old man yells at the cloud.
Though in general our profession is built on and about building abstractions.
I don’t expect every 2010s web dev to know the intricacies of memory allocation, nor do I expect every 2020s web dev to know about nginx config or asset cache invalidation.
It’s handy sure, but required no. They’re all abstractions that you learn if and when necessary.
