We’re getting there but it takes time to agree on what the best implementation of a reinvented wheel looks like? A good example is OpenTelemetry, which is an obvious idea in hindsight but looks like it will take about a decade to ship. Or how we move the goalposts when we reach a goal, for example Kubernetes standardized certain aspects of cloud but now that we have that, instead of celebrating we bemoan its complexity and lack of utility at solving actual application or organization challenges such that we still need to use cloud APIs plus container images plus all this other complexity. But hey, we did solve the problem of distributing code to run on machines, it’s just in hindsight it doesn’t seem like it was that hard? We adjust pretty quick to the “new normal” when it’s not even a decade yet since Docker and Kubernetes appeared on the scene.
