Because after programming either professionally or as a hobby for over 30 years, no “tech” is “cool”. It’s simply a means to have enough money deposited into my bank account to enjoy an upper middle class lifestyle.

In given week, I’m up and down the stack from the web to the infrastructure (AWS). I found all of the things that AWS enabled that took literally months to provision in the old world “cool” for about a year and then it became just another means to an end.
