"Shit" is so commonly used in developer/tech circles that I'm more surprised someone would zero in and take issue with it. I would not question their credentials and reliability over a word.
- jobegrabber 5y ago> I would not question their credentials and reliability over a word In more or less informal discussions, I agree. From my POV it's not about a singular word though, it's about the context: The author labelled the (entire) code base of Kubernetes as "shit": >[...] forking a large code base, especially one as shit as Kubernetes, and still getting community support can be daunting without some sort of titanic change in the market. It's not that it's not "nice" language, it's about the statement. It could very well be that the code base of Kubernetes is in a bad state, but with this wording and without any references, it doesn't come off as neutral or particularly reasonable.
