It sounds like the OP has made their decision, and wants to avoid "the big three", so this is likely a moot point. But ...

Dependencies are always a trade-off. Be they code libraries/modules, programming languages, network protocols, services, etc, any dependency has the benefit of giving you something you'd otherwise have to implement yourself with the downside of then being tied to their schedule, quality, license, pricing, lock-in, etc.

In your RDS example, a similar problem might be a self-hosted database that has an urgent security update. If you're using a cloud provider, that's just taken care of without you even seeing any downtime. When self-hosted, that's a software upgrade, with all the attendant concerns about backwards compatibility, making sure you coordinate the replica upgrades, etc, etc. In both cases, ignoring the issue has costs (one financial, the other security).

In implementing a system, it's your task to balance these tradeoffs. In an investment-funded startup, often the evaluation of the costs and benefits is a little different to what it might be for a bootstrapped startup or an ongoing business. With a limited runway and resources, leveraging the work of others can be a lot more attractive.

Free plans do tend to make expanding your set of dependencies very easy, and cloud-based infrastructure is certainly expensive when compared to the direct costs of self-hosting. But it's there now, and will be there with no ongoing effort on your part. Sometimes, that's worth the cost for the time to market.

All that said: this isn't an either/or. Digital Ocean has a bunch of services that you might choose to use too, and they're not "the big three".

Andrew Millison has a video series that includes restoration of wasteland in India.

Before you accumulate organics, you change how surface water is captured and absorbed into the ground. It can be as simple as shallow trenches or holes (no deeper than a few feet) to slow down water. That then supports the trees, which starts the ecological succession to reverse desertification.

Sometimes, you don't even need to seed it. Just slowing down water is enough to get the process started.

I'd say though, the biggest factor in turning arable land into desert is our modern, industrial-scale agricultural practices. Mainstream-adjacent methods such as polycropping, agroforestry, integrating livestock grazing, etc. yields more resilient farming systems than the usual practice of annually stripping away topsoil, let alone more divergent practices such as perennial food forests.

I have another theory, VCs freeride on the success and luck of other people's projects, which (sometimes) are so good and so profitable that they can even afford to have someone leeching off them. Just look at how many stories are there where the founders end up with zilch and regret ever taking VC money.

It's not functionally possible to develop software without using it.
True that there are not many users that need CAD, but you are missing the point. There are dozens of industries that require specialized software for day to day activities that can only be run on Windows or Mac. You can't just blow off the OS requirements for all of these industries. Honestly, I see this a lot in these discussions about using some toy OS or Linux. People don't realize that to work in the real world it isn't good enough to support 90% of the requirements when you need 100% to function.

I think the better approach would be to standardize some kind of feature that lets you annotate variables as "not noalias" so that Rust knows to elide the noalias for those values. That's a much more generic way to solve the ecosystem problem without changing Box semantics or introducing one off types. That being said, there's already a solution in the ecosystem which is to not use aliased pointers after giving the pointer to Box & moving it.

The way the world is today, that's the result of earlier people who changed it.

Almost everything we have, from religion to politics to technology to morality to language to culture, etc. etc., all comes from people who intentionally changed things. Compare us to our ancestors 10,000 years ago, nomads emerging from the Paleolithic with only stone tools, no writing, etc.

Reactionary perspectives - the hot trend of the unwitting - seem to think that the world was what they grew up with, as some natural state. Someone dreamed, worked, sacrificed, persuaded, etc. to make it this way.

It's great news - we can do it; we can make a better world. You don't have to be Copernicus or Jefferson to do it. Our ancestors paved the way, put down lane markers and signs, gave us every tool we need. What are you waiting for?

Could it be that RDBMS is just inherently very complex? Reminds me of this classic comment about Oracle Database:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18442941

To quote part of it

> Oracle Database 12.2.

> It is close to 25 million lines of C code.

> What an unimaginable horror! You can't change a single line of code in the product without breaking 1000s of existing tests. Generations of programmers have worked on that code under difficult deadlines and filled the code with all kinds of crap.

> Very complex pieces of logic, memory management, context switching, etc. are all held together with thousands of flags. The whole code is ridden with mysterious macros that one cannot decipher without picking a notebook and expanding relevant pats of the macros by hand. It can take a day to two days to really understand what a macro does.

> Sometimes one needs to understand the values and the effects of 20 different flag to predict how the code would behave in different situations. Sometimes 100s too! I am not exaggerating.

> The only reason why this product is still surviving and still works is due to literally millions of tests!

Except for his own businesses and work, he refuses to understand or acknowledge that everything is composed of sequences of tradeoffs and they are that way for a reason. His schtick is painting things black and white instead and telling "they are out to get you, play you for fools, that is why things are the way they are, the world is being unfair to you! but you are clever and you won't fall into that trap!" - that elicits an emotional response from some and converts to views and clicks. Maybe that is not his schtick, but how he genuinely sees the world, that I don't know. It was the same when he had a couple thousand subscribers, and the same today, he is very consistent.

There are places where tropical jungle forms a thick canopy that shelters plants growing in lower part of the canopy. The layers of canopy helps keep the humidity, thus forming a microclimate.

A good example is the moringa forest someone grew in their Phoenix, AZ front yard -- a city built in the lower Sonoran desert. Moringas are heat-seeking, drought-tolerant, fast-growing, and that guy's front-yard developed a canopy under which he grew more sun-sensitive plants. (Stuff labeled "full sun" does not mean "full Arizona sun).

The _simplest_ method for reversing desertification is to work with the natural tendencies so it does most of the work for you. That is, you jump start ecological succession away from desertification. You don't start with trees. You start by changing how rainwater is captured. In arid and semi-arid wastelands, although there isn't much rainwater, when it does come, it sheets off the ground. Rainwater harvesting structures as simple as swales (on-contour trenches), or even wide, shallow circles, capture just enough water for ecological succession to kick off. Planting things comes after, and helps accelerate ecological succession.

Kind of share the same feeling, started a project about 2 months ago and chose to use Raylib, and while the basic stuff is really simple to get going, the more you use it, the more random minor inconveniences you run into, but at this point I've invested too much into this project to back out of using Raylib. My biggest issue with it right now is the font handling and text rendering, I think I'll have to switch from TTF fonts to pre-baked bitmap fonts for it (which will suck for localization later).
The biggest two features I'm missing after switching from Love2D is being able to render multi-color text (with Raylib, you have to manually split up the text into chunks based on color markup, then apply width offset, then call the draw function for each chunk, while also taking into account things like linebreaks and such), not to mention that it seems to tank the FPS a lot when you try to draw a lot of text on the screen (perhaps the draw call batching is broken for text?) and being able to easily chop up textures and make them wrap or tile, Raylib used to have tiled texture draw function in the past but for some reason they removed it.
Really agreed with his assertion of c. More to his “ Its syntax doesn’t hide complex operations. It’s simple enough that I don’t have to constantly look things up”, and further if you need to look up something about c, it is very easy and very informative. Simple and old lang has its benefits.

"can’t be stolen or forgotten. They’re strings of letters and numbers that are unique to your account, stored on your device or in a safe cloud environment"

Can't be stolen, but are stored on a device that could be stolen? How do I then authenticate myself, if they're stored on my phone then they're only as secure as the authentication mechanism I use on my device. What if I need to access my Apple account because I lost my device if I've lost my device that the key is stored on that I can't remember?

Stored in a safe cloud environment, geez where have I heard that before.

If I don't know what they are and where they are then how can I control them? How do I authenticate myself to my account without having something on myself that's either remembered or something I have that could be stolen

If this isn't something I can really control or recover myself from, then I am worried about the idea of asking Microsoft for help if I am locked out

If we come back to basic principles of an authentication mechanism that is something you have, something you are and something you know. Where does this fit into?

These stories seem to always exaggerate the losses on these types of commercial properties. Inevitably, the buyer is paying off a big outstanding loan and possibly a tax bill, but the headline purchase amount is just the winning bid to pay for the privilege to settle the outstanding debt. No doubt the value of these properties struggling to find tenants is lower than it was, but not nearly what they're trying to show in these stories.

This is absolutely incorrect.
