If the US Market for SWEs is on fire why isn’t Europe’s, or India’s?

If they have more of a constrained supply, they win. Right. There aren't enough SWEs, so if you have them, your competition can't. Get enough SWEs together and you get some cool shit like K8s. That and probably keeping the good ones who are 2x in some areas, but make fewer mistakes than two 1x would.

Pay top dollar for software developers and then give K8s away to the world? Doesn’t sound like a wise use of stockholder assets.

How are your portfolio companies doing? Oh right, you don’t run a VC?

This is why others are running the ship. Your exact example, which you don’t understand, is a perfect example of why you SHOULD give k8s away.

If you're Google and you sell GCP, you give away the tool that helps more customers use more of your product.

Also it means you don't have as hard a time training new hires to think in Googly terms.
