Developer ibuildthecloud argues demand for CPU compute is about to explode: 'At this moment I'm 110% compute constrained. It's not that I can't buy it. It's that it's hard to manage.' He says he's building tooling to manage compute — a signal that compute scarcity is spreading from GPUs to CPUs, with orchestration emerging as a real need. The take was retweeted by rakyll (170k followers).
