TFW Chinese EV makers aren’t even competing with western ones anymore, only among themselves.

If a tariff falls on a product category but no one is around to hear it, did it even make a sound?

I sure hope so, but I have little faith tbh. Cloud providers have done a great job selling serverless solutions that are tightly coupled with the provider. Wise companies have limited themselves to the basics - load balancers, servers, maybe some serverless container solution or kubernetes. The latter can move pretty much anywhere with some, but not a whole lot, of effort. The former, have fun rediscovering the quirks of your new provider’s equivalent of lambdas or whatever (or at worst, rewriting the whole thing).

What are people’s opinion on this, good or bad? I have a somewhat favorable view of IBM in open source, but not sure where I got it (so it might be misplaced).
