Just like how more RAM and compute in the cloud made us worse engineers (no need to turn your brain on to tune performance).

When the brain is off for one thing, it's off for the rest as well. There is a lot of talk about "we don't have to think about code so we can think of ideas", but that's not how it works. We just don't think.

They should put microphones in the cloud servers so you can hear the fans spin up when you run a program. It's a bit more impactful than a silent CPU usage graph.
Just use RPM sensors and room temperature?
