Cloud services will eventually shift the entire market back to onprem strictly because of costs...costs that are supposed to go down over time

Odd

I thought it was caused by every little piece of software being tied to giant product teams full of MBA majors that want to add 50 features a week

Normal? Covid is still a thing Wages are up Housing bubble Etc

Oh boy are you in for a surprise come end of quarter

I think the parent comment is referencing how much is built into JS natively today that people used to use jquery to do.

Money

But engineers have more fun
