My parents bought the house I grew up in in 1965 for $15 K. When they moved, 40 years later, the house was razed and replaced with a $1 M McMansion. I empathize.

Same. My parents didn't buy a TV until 1972, when I was 11, although they *rented* one for the moon landing in 1969.

Oh, agreed. But the value varies by organization/situation, so I'd like to see self-managed options remain available.

I fear you're right. Self-managed _anything_ is disappearing quickly. I remember when all "serious" software ran on mainframes. In a way, we seem to be returning to that model, albeit with fancier terminals.

Indeed. I'm starting to wonder whether 23ai on-prem will ever be released.
