Announcing $100,000 for Startups on Google Cloud Platform

Before reading that I mentally added 'in google cloud platform credit' to the title and I'm really not surprised that that's how it is.

So, this is more likely $30K worth of costs to google rather than what you get for it and once you're on that stuff and need to scale the lock-in you'll experience is going to be worth a lot more than that $100K to you.

Remember how people get started on crack, the first pipe is always free.
