> It's being so bad that higher management starts demanding rewrites of 100K-1MLOC applications in new languages, with every component of the full stack being new, because trusted technologies are apparently not evolving fast enough.

We're having a lot of troubles hiring people, and candidates ask about these shiny new toys (k8s, cloud etc.) during interviews, so management just wants to give it to them.
