It’s been a while since you were last on the show. As the creator of Jeff, what have you been up to lately?Topic 2 - Let’s talk about a basic thing that seems to confuse people. What’s the new definition, or the actual difference (if there is any), between “Serverless” and “Functions as a Service”. Topic 3 - I’ve seen you mention several times on Twitter that, “Few people really understand how powerful serverless can be. They focus on the wrong things.” Help us get focused on the important parts. Topic 4 - I’ve also seen you say that “with serverless, infrastructure is a rounding error.” Walk us through the economics of your experiences with serverless, and how you think about “profitable software”.Topic 5 - Why do you think it seems like so many of the other cloud offerings are so far behind AWS Lambda? Topic 6 - At a high level, what is working well in serverless, and what is still complicated or missing? What’s your wishlist for 2019?Feedback?Email: show at thecloudcast dot netTwitter: @thecloudcastnet and
