Spite-Driven Engineering: a New Blueprint for Cloud Security in the AI Native Era

In this episode, Alex Zenla (CTO/co-founder, Edera) challenges the "laissez-faire" attitude toward modern infrastructure. She promotes "spite-driven development", building software to solve genuine technical pain points rather than passively accepting flawed abstractions, as a philosophy of improving the world of software.
