How about this: you construct a society that obsesses about race, I build a society that obsesses about property rights and we’ll see who wants to live where?

'Because it's a very practical issue that can't be magicked away into the cloud.'
Maybe I'm not focusing on the 'into the cloud' part enough but is the first part of that statement true? Filesystems seem like a very practical issue: writing 1s and 0s in a (sometimes not even sequential) stream to a block device...my first glance at the issue it doesn't seem nearly a daunting challenge as CPU interoperability (multiple vendors, multiple instruction sets, somewhat overlapping, somewhat not) or networking, etc
georgedegennaro | 5 years ago | on: Show HN: Vantage – An alternative AWS console focused on developer experience
I've thought about the idea of re-implementing the AWS console, especially for the ends of a 'focused'/gated experience in the data science field; my reasoning was every service has an API and there is a JavaScript SDK, why not just reimplement the console to my tastes/goals? I'm curious what your architecture/design looks like and whether you ran into any sharp edges: ie is Web UI for a cloud platform really as simple as writing JS to call rest APIs?
Also, I'm wondering if the community has any other open source alternatives I could toy around with and peek under the hood.
