So you're an auto maker, you say you can care about your product but not care how is built? If you're building for the cheapest segment of the market, just maybe. Anything else is a hard no imho

Infrastructure as code tools like terraform etc? That's trivial compared to configuring a database for production use I would say. You don't need to be DevOps to write that stuff, it's really simple.

not sure what you mean by a serious deployment, but a lot of companies will be perfectly fine with, some compute, object storage and a managed rdbms. Will that be more expensive than running it yourself? Absolutely. Does it allow teams to f

It's not monopoly rates, it's actual utility rates. The only problem here is if the utility is allowed to make a profit. Gas pipes, electric lines and internet connections are like roads in today's society. Can't really

I have seen these comments quite a bit but they gloss over a major feature of a large company. In a large company you can have thousands of developers just coding away at their features without worrying about how any of it runs. You can dis

Sure but copy and pasting stuff isn't a practical solution? The DDOS angle is unrelated? You can do that whenever you want. The risk is other people profiting/taking credit for your work. If all of this is true, why does anyone pu

Drone strikes picked up, obviously as that technology became more and more mature. They're cheaper to operate and don't put a pilot in harms way. So that's kinda expected? Agreed with most of the rest you said though

Because when you're testing you put your rocket in an orbit that makes it reenter, but you can still show it has the performance to do it. They still need to show they can reliably relight the engines to deorbit. They're actually

Do you want to put a dollar amount per kg to orbit on that? Because if you're spending orders of magnitude more, the expectations also go up, no? And mind you, SLS isn't a new system. It's old space shuttle engines. It's

The point I was trying to make was that whether or not something is illegal is typically decided by a judge. Most of the things corporations do aren't as clear cut as a traffic violation. So in those cases, you only know if something i
