Thus kind of thing makes me think, if we can't set it and forget it with these services anymore this whole industry is going to fall to pieces. Its just not reliable infrastructure.
We want to keep making things more shiny and complex because it justifies our jobs. But everything has dependencies, breaking changes, cruft. Working systems decay too fast. The software industry has become nothing but overhead and maintenance.
If this continues there's no future for it, that might sound impossible or unbelievable, but humans advance, and this isn't advancement, you can't run a space colony on software that stops working a year later and needs legacy system admins to keep the air running in 15 years. This stuff needs to normalize, slow down, become bedrock, or our civilizations will not be able to rely on it.
