Now they *think* they can create the apps themselves. I say let every CEO and business administrator try; business will fail, everything will get shitty, and eventually somebody somewhere might learn something. Let 'em cook.

And society is beginning to suffer from it. AWS alone managed to slop itself into outages twice in a matter of a year [1] (and I bet that's just the stuff that escalates into mass-visible outages, not the "oh, can't start a new EC2 instance of a specific type for a few hours" kind), and a lot of companies were affected.

It's always the same game: by the time the consequences of the beancounters' actions come home to roost, they have long since departed with nice bonus packages, leaving the rest to dig out the mess.
