Not a fan of these "old man screams at cloud" posts, but I had a similar experience.

Suddenly, everyone was talking about HTTP APIs, when they said API.

With the rise of IOS and Android, I expected the mobile devs would build something better than HTTP, without all the cruft from the past. But somehow that didn't happen.

Now API is synonymous with HTTP.

Strange how things turn out in the end.
