Someone saying "This is complex but I think I have the core idea" and someone to responding "That's not the core idea at all" is hilarious and sad. BUT ironically what you just laid out about TF is exactly the same

Think of otel as just a standard data format for your logs/traces/metrics that your backend(s) emit, and some open source libraries for dealing with that data. You can pipe it straight to an observability vendor that accepts these

Yes. CR has had this feature since day 1, people just don't bother to read the docs and would rather write long blog posts blaming their cloud provider for manufacturing the gun they shot themself in the foot with.

If you go back and search hacker news for any article involving JWTs or OAuth you’ll find hundreds of comments of circular arguments over what a JWT is and is not. People never seem to be able to separate the two.

It’s not coded, it’s just bs. Watching democrats cry hypocrite while also resharing the article/tweet/news clip is literally their media strategy.

People who love dunking on conservatives on twitter don’t realize that saying absurd stuff and then watching liberals wind themselves into a tizzy is like 95% of the GOP’s media strategy.

To be fair, admitting their amateur foray into chatbots was an abject failure and rolling it back really does put them at the forefront of the AI movement.

Why not just use something like Cloud Run? If you're only running a microVM deploying it there will probably be at or near free.
