Wait I'm confused is this about people developing cloud software or is this about people who do their development on a remote cloud machine? It seems to be about the latter but I've never seen that

I'd say it's about cloud techs being "scared" of the local storage.
As it's usually linux on servers and windows on-prem workstations I'd say it's them being scared of storing anything locally.

That would make sense if it didn't use a Windows file path :D

Oooh the latter would make so much more sense! I'm not a cloud developer, but a good chunk of the code I write runs in AWS Lambdas and EC2 Images and I was so confused as to what relation that would even have to local storage. If anything, I'm afraid of Terraform and it's arcane power
