Ironically I think post-classic was a regression — it looks a lot more like the infrastructure we had to deal with pre-cloud. My new stuff is mostly on Cloudflare, so now I’m really not thinking about subnets, VPCs, etc.

It turns out the way to grow the ec2 business is to get existing companies into the cloud - not just brand new startups. They all have to integrate with on prem networks, which necessitates VPC.
