"Not cloud credits, not a managed platform, not a serverless function bobbing in someone else's abstraction."
"I used to work at Heroku. That sentence still does a lot of load-bearing work in how I think about computing."
"Here's the part that would have sounded like science fiction during my Heroku years: I didn't do most of the migration."

No need to be rude, but the reason LLMs use phrasing like that is because people did and some still do.
