The Serverless Illusion

The classic marketing vs. reality gap strikes again! "Serverless" architecture sounds magical—like your code just floats in some ethereal digital dimension. Then you peek behind the curtain and—surprise!—it's just someone else's servers. It's like ordering a "meatless" burger only to discover it's just regular meat that someone else chewed for you. The shocked cat face perfectly captures that moment when you realize the cloud is just fancy marketing for "computers I don't personally have to restart at 3AM."

Absolute Fools: The DevOps Complexity Circus

The eternal battle between old-school sysadmins and modern DevOps continues! This is basically every grizzled Unix veteran watching their company adopt Kubernetes to run a simple CRUD app that could've been handled by a single server from 2003. The meme brilliantly captures the frustration of seeing simple problems solved with absurdly complex solutions. Unix sockets? Nah, let's orchestrate 47 containers across 3 availability zones instead! Because nothing says "enterprise ready" like needing three diagrams that look like circuit boards just to deploy a hello world app. And the cherry on top? After all that complexity, the only actual requirement was "no downtime please" - which ironically would've been easier to achieve with the simpler setup. The real DevOps was inside us all along!
