Pretty standard. A couple of containers filled with Cpus, Gpus or other small pricy items adds quickly up hundreds of millions of usd. The Ever Given was carrying around approx. 18 000 containers So that is an avarage price of around 150 00

Just realizing this and being able to verbalize this makes you way better than 90% of people in IT. Most senior consultants in Accenture are big dummies that know tech buzzwords. Most of them have never used an IDE. So I would say your doin

Engineer here too. Absolutely agreeing with you. The people that want to go back to the office are also the same people that were wasting everyone's time in the office. Middle managers, office365 consultants, project managers etc. Etc.
