i.e. All the design patterns and tech horrors you can use now, to make bad software to secure lifetime employment. Or, idk, just kick back for a couple of years while the rest of them vibecode it up for you.

A bit of a long shot but has anyone used DuckDB (JDBC Driver) on an EKS pod using the IAM Service Roles for Accounts (to configure things like S3 permissions).... If so oh boy do I have questions for you....
