Cybernetics is, of course, the study of Kubernetes deployment.
- mdp2021 4y agoThe name of the software named "Kubernetes" makes sense only as a "governor" for containers. Cybernetics /may/ be with effort used to indicate "management of agents", because your example seems to use it that way, but it seems unfitting: the image of the "steering man" for 'cybernetics', the "study of feedback based systems", comes from the fact of the heavy feedback that a ship and its controls give to the operator and must be managed to operate effectively - to "direct" a ship, you have to "govern" it (not simply "instruct" it), that is (seems to be) where the sense comes from. "Cybernetics" clearly deals with all feedback based systems, not just "agents with respect to events and resources" (the latter by the way being more a matter of "economics") like the mentioned software seems to do (and one could wonder how much sophisticated theory is behind it, and how much just centralized management. Kubernetes, the software, does many different things). (Of course, clearly yours remains a joke as a «study» involves "laws", principles, not implementations.)
