how do you reduce your cloud cost outside of egress && s3? you can start with unikernels; greater performance leads directly to lower cost at scale; the cloud is optimized for vms not your apps - with unikernels it can be both

Since apparently not enough people have gotten the msg yet - if you dm/email us a photo of you running nanos unikernels in a cloud of your choice we will mail you a 'k8s is for crack heads' sticker! (w/out cutlines)

*ahem*.
Terraform is still the best. But I'd like to see someone replace it. The major alternatives aren't interesting to me cause they're too iterative and copycat. I want to see fundamentally new ideas take hold. IaC feels stagnant.

an always on container on cloudflare would be ~$50/month - exact same specs for a unikernel running on a t2.small is ~$16. you don't need new platforms/vendors - you need new runtimes.

for the record you don't need the notion of users on your prod deploys - just use unikernels. otherwise the symlink toctous will continue until morale improves. LPE to root - pam_namespace CVE-2025-6020.

ICYMI - libxslt has no maintainer anymore and libxml2 has gone full-disclosure with multiple POCs for unfixed cves - they also happen to be linked into to a *ton* of software you use everyday

more and more people even w/in the cloud native ecosystem are starting to wake up to the fact that."Isolation might be the most important primitive in distributed computing that we still haven’t gotten right" just use nanos unikernels

here's the companion video to show how to run nanos unikernels on top of (instead of as) ordinary ec2 instances - - unlocking firecracker workloads, instant boot, pause/resume && full orchestration control.
