Businesses Look Beyond the Cloud to Run Software

    And there are other situations in which a constant connection to the cloud might not be preferable

I know this is only discussing the few places where constant connectivity is still rare such as airline travel but there are plenty of times where I'm on a limited connection. Such as being throttled on AT&T at concerts, at the mall, etc.

I'd love to see more applications built in a "local first" manner where I'd be able to do what I need without thinking about the throttling and they just sync my changes when its possible.

I hate when my connection drops and slack says "Couldn't send!" and forces me to decide when to retry... just hold on to my message and send it when you see connectivity again!
