What is cloud computing

You ask your friend with expensive computer to run a program for you and he charges you.

CLOUD COMPUTING = programming done while on a plane

Interesting question. First you might need to jump from an aeroplane while programming a programme in mid air and greet your computer to the sky (for uploading of course)

So any questions? 😈

Not your grandmother's windows 95

It's when a Hollywood actor from Belgium doing computer things while doing a split. What's that? Oh, "Cloud".

It's when you're on an airplane and you catch up on your emails

It's a plane.

It is like the traditional computing on a rented server somewhere - but you also don't know where the server is.

It's computation to create clouds, duh.

Very similar to Tree Computing and Hill Computing.

You do computing on someone else computers.

It’s placing ownership in reality of all your infrastructure and data on a company that deletes everything if you don’t pay your bill and removing many good paying tech and admin jobs from the economy to make Google and Amazon richer

One might also say eradication of the consumer class in any given country ironically to cut costs for a corporation by having them pay more in essence which diminishes overall revenue the more companies jump on it
Like employee sweat shop labor except haji is rich and there isn’t thousands of them

It's when you program where the rain clouds go. Like who gets flood and storms, and who drought and wildfires.

@Maer 🤯

@Maer have you been cash computing lately?

@electrineer I think they call that "mining".
