Last night enjoyed reading the HN topic

"Lessons from writing a Kubernetes Security book" at

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44784495

all about the joys and problems developers encounter using kubernetes/k8.

And reading now, today here about Excel/VBA, it struck me that something was missing: couldn't I eliminate 90% of computer software and ease 80% of software devops simply by building/selling a system that ran purely Excel atop kubernetes?

I mean, isn't that all there is to computing nowadays? Plus a little social media? And some AI for fun and maybe a little Excel/k8 work as frosting on the cake.

EDIT: Upon some further thought and prompting by helpful anonymous others, I have found a slightly different path: a FORTH/kubernetes system that will be used to bootstrap versions of VBA & Excel to the cloud. This will be made available to the great unwashed masses of humanity (and their AI friends) for implementing social media for all.
