Both DevOps and Front-End hysteria are enormous. My conspiracy theory is that FAANG+MS does this to burn down resources and prevent anything interesting created outside of their sphere of influence. In one workplace I was barely keeping my head over the surface in the Angular+NGRX+Observable cesspool then started to talk about corresponding infra and the backend person was all like "let me configure and provision an autoscaling geodistributed self-healing supercluster". KILL. ME.
