that isn't a good title. Given the intended audience, you can assume the
readership is smart enough to understand that nuances are not reflected in the
title.

Here are some examples of using your style in well known titles.

God is not Great Most of the time (worse title, but more accurate)

A failure of Capitalism to self regulate banking and insurance and avoid
systemic risk (much worse than the original, but more accurate)

A pale blue dot when viewed from a distant perspective in space (much worse
than the original, but more accurate)

All of the fawning over the cloud really irritates me. I use S3 and EC2 and
love them both. However, I also still use local storage and non-EC2 servers.

Everything has its place, and the cloud has definitely not replaced the server
for me, nor do I see that happening any time in the near future. Especially if
you're just starting out, dealing with getting set up in a cloud environment
is a headache you just don't need.

Sounds nice in theory, in reality less than 1% of applications really need to
scale and only one "resource" a.k.a. "server" is going to have to do all the
work, simply for economic reasons. Current (shared) PaaS offerings still have
too many limitations and lock-in to be a suitable replacement.
