cloudy garbage

Proprietary computer software that is unique to a specific cloud computing provider, performs a standard function but with a non-standard interface, and with less capability than has existed for more than a decade in normal software. Cloudy garbage has the effect of providing cloud provider lock-in by forcing users to do something conventional but using the provider's unique tools. For example, the Amazon Web Service (AWS) Command Line Interface (CLI) includes "aws s3 sync" that has a unique interface, only works on AWS, and is less capable than traditional rsync.

Using AWS CLI 2 to perform a sync which requires an upload of 104 files, after hours of execution, it never changed the estimate from ~9 files and "(calculating...)." Am I doing something wrong with the AWS CLI or is this just more cloudy garbage?

Garbage-barge Politician

The act of waking up each day, gathering armloads of random information, disregarding all context surrounding the gathered muck, grabbing one's Huck Finn stick, hopping onto a floating device on which the garbage has been piled, pushing off out into the lake, picking up each item, and screaming about it. Meanwhile, the people on the banks only really hear the seagulls.

Bystander 1: "Uh-oh, Garbage Barge Greene's on the float again. I wonder what random act of ignorance she's going to shout about today."

Bystander 2: "It's the nature of a garbage-barge politician, Garbage gonna barge."

Also can apply to the act of politicking, as in "Garbage Barge Politics"

Outside Garbage

A person who transcends being regular garbage. Analogous for items in the fridge so rotten that they skip right past the kitchen bin and go directly outside.

Meg: "I like that guy over there with the beard."
Joe:"Him? He eats pills for breakfast and will rob you in your sleep. Outside garbage.. stay away."
