Not on board with this, other than the advantages that solutions like Pulumi have over 2nd gen IaC tooling like TF.
Pulumi is far more extensible and composable than anything else I've seen out there.
Pulumi is fantastic, just wish it was more popular honestly. That and how you have to handle async stuff with it feels kinda weird in the era of async await in JS.
But it's wild, our tech stack at the company I'm working at is Typescript all the way down. Frontend, Backend, Infrastructure is all typescript. Our team loves it. We also use serverless. Given the perspective in this thread I'm expecting downvotes but we love that too.
I think serverless is just like everything else. If you implement it poorly it can be slow, expensive, and pointless. If you implement it well it can be cheap, fast, and keep your team lean.

It's a sad commentary that this is the case on HN. People using down votes as lazy disagreements against an opinion they don't like is fundamentally anti hacker IMHO.
