Cloud Wars





Cloud Wars are upon us.
We had no choice and no one really asked us whether we want them.
They came to bind us all.
Those who live with their heads in the clouds and feet on the ground will survive.
Those who don't won't. It is irrelevant what you think or do.
Very few people are really think and know what is really going.
The Developer as it was and is now will disappear. You can develop whatever you want and eventually it will be offered as a Service by them. You too small and no one can see you.
They will swallow everything and everyone. The idea is very neat and smart.
If you hold the 'Shift' key and type number 4 it will give you an answer - $.
Yes it is 4 big Cloud providers out there: Microsoft, Oracle, Amazon and Google (MOAG)
Everything will run in the Cloud (MOAG). Even if you crazy talented and develop something outstanding and use MOAG to run your next big thing eventually they will swallow you.
Think Netflix on Amazon. Netflix was a king until Amazon created its own Netflix and called it Amazon Prime. You can innovate like crazy and think you can outsmart them.
Think again. Whatever you invent will end up in the Cloud sooner or later.
One Cloud to rule them all and in the Darkness bind them :)
They will have visibility into everything what is running on their Clouds by other companies.
Retail, Engineering, Genetic Research etc. etc.  and you can't hide. Anything worth copying and re-engineering will be. Its a free market. By the time you find out about something they will already forget about it. You never in front and always behind.
Enough said. The future is bright.

Artificial I

Yes not misspelled and my title is right: Artificial I . Lets us zoom for a second on 'why' and 'what' and then we can have a look at 'when'. Why ? Look at yourself in the mirror for 1 min. until you have your image in your memory. (Warning: to some the experience may be to much to take. I am not joking or alluding to anything here. Simply stating the fact that this process is deeply personal and may evoke number of complex emotions. Some of them may be not as pleasant as you would expect it.) Then sit yourself somewhere comfortably and close your eyes. Concentrate and try to bring your image back. You may succeed or you may not. It all depends on your brain ability to recall the images quickly and reliably over time as well as strange desire and ability to forget certain images. Now you probably slowly starting to realize by yourself is 'why' :) We need some sort of third party involvement here to help us along way as we have our limitations...

White Hat

Was talking to my friend 'White Hat' He is still hopefull and optimistic. Alone as everyone left to the BlackHat he still picking at his bugs and whatever he can find there. Will he be able to deliver on the promise and save us from Darth forces? I hope he will.

Linus hasn’t received any recommendations yet.

I find it extremely interesting that Linus Torvalds Linkedin profile doesn't have any 'Recommendations: Received (0) Given (1) Linus hasn’t received any recommendations yet.' You may say he doesn't need it. Everyone knows he invented Linux. Well almost everyone :) But it also shows and reflects the world we are living. You barely hear his name and he is not in the news. I know people with 10, 100 recommendations. It is all about building and maintaing your connections. So the old saying goes: "Its not what you know, its who you know" It works amazingly well even nowadays in the age of knowledge. I think of the Linus legacy and I think of: Security and stability Extensibility and simplicity I think of Bill Gates legacy and I think of: Unsecure and untrustworthy Proprietory and complex One is humble and down to earth creator The other is shrewd and cunning businessman One is doing OK The other is billionaire You can now run Linux on Windo...
