I run a few serverless stacks on AWS Lambda, have been for years and slept well all the time. Serverless is forgiving. Things heal and don't stay dead like it can happen with anything that carries state like a container.
That said, I do prefer the development model of containers. Run them anywhere. That said, has it's own limitations. For example, he claims to be able to run state within container. Doesn't make sense if you want to scale out. Persistence is a problem. You can't run DBs on ECS Fargate for example.
And the worst aspect of running containers is: in bigger orgs the standard will probably be K8s. And that has nothing to do any more with the simplicity of containers as mentioned in the article.
Containers don't carry state. They can be made to do so if you wish but there's nothing inherent to them that does it.

K8s can be very simple if there's a platform team ensuring great developer experience. I appreciate that this is likely rarer than you or I would like though.
I have young kids mid 50s. it's tough, but keeps me young, active and I believe more enjoyable as a person (not that I'm much of that lol).
I've spent all my 20s coding and learning and actively decided against relationship, as that would have completely eaten my time and I wouldn't enjoy how that time was spent.
If I could choose an age to start having kids, it would be 33. Still enough appetite for other stuff, but also a good amount of desire to procreate.
I’m late 50s, having kids younger means I now have young grandkids. The nice thing about them is they keep me young and active, but when they smell funny, have snotty noses, or when I’m just tired—-I can hand them back to their parents.
The best thing about grandkids, is no one really gets mad when you do the old “pull my finger” trick. You’re an old man and it’s expected of ya.
Late 20s or early 30s depending on how stable the rest of your life is would be my recommendation. But any time that works is better than no kids at all
I've been using it on macOS for quite some time now, coming from Safari, and am really happy with it. I use homebrew like so:
brew install librewolf --no-quarantine
brew upgrade librewolf --no-quarantine
After a bit of wrestling with a few per page settings, I have most websites running how I like them.
I use Zoom Page WE to manage per page zoom levels, this alone was a game changer for me compared to Safari.
I'm planning to fully switch to Linux someday which will probably be arch so I've done a test setup. I've installed the https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/librewolf-bin package and that worked equally well.
if you want to liberate yourself from corp controlled OS (like me), avoid Ubuntu and probably also Fedora.
I'd recommend to try out EndeavourOS (= Arch in easy mode). Then, once you are familiar with pacman and yay, try vanilla Arch (which is no more problem with archinstall). you won't regret it. I have installed arch on my kids gaming PC and they work like a charm. KDE is fantastic (I love it because it is snappy).
