    I repeatedly see issues where executives don't understand the preconditions necessary around specifications in order to have hard deadlines.

    I'm becoming increasingly pessimistic about whether non-technical executives can lead effectively in the software-driven world.

    I'm amazed at all the law professors who assert that Trump is acting like a normal CEO. No normal or good CEO demands personal fealty.

    But surely introducing distributed state and an invisible, unmanageable, uncoordinated work queue means we can fire our grumpy people!

    We still have pain around the thick client (react? Angular 2? Ember? Native app or react/ionic?). We have pain around data writes @ scale /7

    And we don't have pain around the middle tier as run in stateless auto-scaling, load-balanced EC2 instances. They work well today. /6

    But for general dev, we're going to thick clients. We're using tons of services. Our middle tier (the FaaS tier) is shrinking rapidly. /5

    FaaS & Lambda feel similarly niche-y to me for dev. Makes a ton of sense for high-volume data processing, incl. event-driven dev like IoT /4
