One such opportunity may be for groups like #Ansible and #Pulumi to coordinate with #Apache and/or #CNCF to create a common, open standard around cloud and baremetal provider implementations that could be compatible with Pulumi and Ansible via libcloud, breaking away from the vendor-centric HCL lock in that terraform mandated.

There is also a bit of schadenfreude about this as Red Hat will more have to pull Terraform from #Openshift as some collateral damage for #Hashicorp doing an anti-competitive thing with its source code.

I didn't have renewed debates over copy-left vs permissive #opensource licenses in my 2023 bingo card.

People thinking I'm a millennial for wearing "skinny jeans", but in reality my jeans shrank in the wash but I certainly didn't, and I'm too cheap to buy new jeans.

Or am I overthinking this?
