Thank you Twitter. I will send my resume for your consideration. Love it how the next 10 years will turn out.

That is fine as long as you can make money fast. Same applies to if you decide to go with azure, gcp, ibm cloud etc. when you grow from 1000 to 1m subscribers, what matters is if you can scale in hours or months.

You do a good service to the society, Jeff. One hypothesis can be that many people (like me) ended up paying for both the books (ansible and kubernetes) even if it was free. Someone puts their soul into creating good books that we benefit f

First, make money and fast. If you have customer, money and growth, you can hire right people to redesign your software.

If you meant the management platforms (ex. Rancher) for multi-cloud clusters, it depends. Infrastructure costs are x% (<20%?) of the e2e cost to run a business. As you go to multi cloud, you have to plan for operationalization, enablemen

Very informative. Thank you.

Vendor lock-in does not come from using GKE/EKS/AKS or derivatives. What ends up happening is that your application consumes services (storage, analytics, etc.). You start using those services from the cloud provider, which makes

Illiterate politicians can still survive if they keep competent people in their surrounding. Our president pushed out the relevant people from national security council, kept his own folks, and did not listen to anyone in January. Four year

Is it a mindless leader of large corporation, or is it Government? It does not reflect the character of USA people.

It is less about hyperscale. More about building agile applications that can have independent discrete ship’able components. Also fear of missing out is another factor.

+1 for this. Gives you immense satisfaction. Learn tools in the process. "focus on solving problems"

Speaking of dying, the world would be so much better if people died without pain. They would spare themselves and the closed ones from a lot of pain when the end result is obvious (death). Pain hurts. Both physically and mentally.

Your last statement is being blunt on Amazon. Customers come first in AWS culture. With a massive user base, they need to care about not breaking existing customer applications/integrations. If AWS did not evolve its software processes

This deserves many more upvotes. External agents find cheap ways to destroy the country, and some internal agents sacrifice common man for quarterly bonus. A virally popular device (non-prescription and cheap, for god’s sake) to detect toxi

I should have clarified. 4-lane expressway, signals were about 0.5-1.0 mile apart. All lanes clear. Mid night. It was NOT a freeway.

I was going at 30-40mph in the right lane on a 4-lane all empty highway, when a gentleman flies at 60-70mph and hits us right behind, goes 360 turn with us and we hit the wall. Everyone survived without any medical incident (other than that

The folks at Facebook know programming and teach lot of us about that. They know how scale distributed system, what parts to write in Python, Go, or just Assembly. They also built new network architecture to optimize utilization of all link

From my personal experience of working on it, it is becoming simpler every month. So from a infrastructure standpoint, it is going to be much simpler than vSphere or Openstack. This is a no-brainer. Now, do everyone need to run their applic

"When you're the janitor, reasons matter," Jobs told his newly-minted VPs. "Somewhere between the janitor and the CEO, reasons stop mattering." Thank you for sharing.

You do not need k8s if that's all you got. Focus on making money first.

Linux is a first class citizen on Azure. And no, I do not work for, nor use Azure.

Home vs. Outsider. Visa vs. An-unknown-transaction-processor. Though the analogy can be questionable.

I feel it everyday. In addition to other comments, the following have been helpful. - Manage expectations. - Work for yourself. Learning time that sets you up for goodness a year down the line is good. But same repetitive work getting to bu

My desire to make it so for myself. No I am not a psycho, I am an educated and balanced individual. It pains me to see how people do not realize that sometimes it is worthwhile to die peacefully than living in utter pain. Worse, it drags do

Experiencing first hand. I hope at this age, I should have saved enough. But, single income and mortgage means better be realistic. I do take risk though, working for startup on cutting edge tech, than for a large company. Basically insuran

I read through all comments. Very informative. How many people and companies are going to freak out if Elon and his team deliver FSD without LIDAR? Say in 2022, not even 2020. My layman logic is that AI is improving exponentially, and we do

My understanding is that it solves a specific customer problem by seamlessly connecting the workloads running on various forms (ec2, ecs, k8s etc.).

But why? I can understand blocking Google, FB etc. and that's well discussed. Why block GitHub?
