SHOW NOTES:

• Kubernetes is great, but it’s been a 7 year distraction (and this thread)
• Cloud players sound a cautious tone in 2023
• Is DevRel as an idea being abandoned?

THE CURVE IS BENDING DOWN, SO QUESTION EVERYTHING

• The public cloud is no longer economically viable
• Distributed systems are not practical
• Kubernetes is now too difficult to use
• Developer relations (DevRel) is no longer needed by vendors

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN EARLY ADOPTERS AND MAINSTREAM

• Early adopters typically have a specific problem they are trying to solve
• Near-term and long-term goals don’t always align
• The ROI of technology doesn’t always happen immediately
• Resume-driven-development is a real thing in good times
• Economic downturns shine a light on practicality and profitability
• Greed is a factor in good times and bad times
