It's really true for most users. I've seen it over and over again. Working in SV we lose sight of just how simple many peoples applications are. But I'm not saying just start a server and call it good. Use auto scaling gr

I don't mean to push an anti-k8s agenda. What I'm pointing out is that people have conflated the value of containers with the value of orchestration and clustering. They don't need to go hand in hand. Containers without orch

Not really, the value of containers that most people have seen is that it's just a more portable package. It's easier to move between environments in a consistent way. If I do that with fancy orchestration, shell scripts, or con

Amazon is extremely data driven. If their attitude is lukewarm at best then you might consider the market is lukewarm at best. People take for granted that the value of k8s has been proven. It has not. The value of containerizing your ap

There's a sad truth that many of us engineers do not want to accept. The most successful solutions are ones that do not require quality or diligence from the practitioner. There are absolutely better way to do things than Docker. Prett

I've been playing with crosvm and containers (lxd) in ChromeOS for awhile and I've been very impressed at the technical expertise that has been required to bring this to ChromeOS. Now that the terminal app is released I can say (

I don't fully buy that explanation. If OpenStack was better they would have already had success on that platform and then would be asking for a bridge between k8s and OpenStack (openstack could easily be a virtual kubelet). Instead pe

The real reason for these projects (Virlet, KubeVirt, RancherVM) is that OpenStack is too damn hard. Even with all this focus on containers these days people still need an onprem VM solution. But the requirements are really pretty simple fo

This is really the wrong move. Really sucks the personality out of go. I felt the old brand clearly highlighted the important thing is, and where the most time is spent, is the code

Shameless plug: Try Rancher 2.0 (beta announced today and GA coming in a month). With Rancher we enable all the security stuff by default but try to actually make it usable (which is quite hard). So RBAC, PSPs, network policy is all on by d

I find it odd when I see projects in the GitHub org github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform like this one. Being that the org has the same name as Googles product (GCP) I would not expect experimental or nacent projects. I never know what to

I've seen quite a few developers buy and use these with mixed results. One key thing I've seen that people have really struggled with is multiple external monitors. For that to work you usually need some USB C dock which is a nig

Let me clarify, this code is to store the k8s cluster state in a SQL DB and not in etcd. This had nothing to do with applications deployed by k8s.

Wow. It's been about 6 years since I last used j9, but at the time I used it it was extremely good. But I was running on Power, which is it's sweet spot.

I programmed Java for 15 years in mostly eclipse. The past 3 years I've been doing go in vim. Just recently I switched to Gogland for go, which is a full blown IDE. It's been life-changingly good. I forgot just how nice it is

When I read this issue I think it just reflects poorly on the author of the issue. I see no reason to assume ill will. Notification of violating the license is definitely needed, but the tone of the issue is uncalled for.

We released some versions for ARM but in the end ARM requires too much effort to support right now. As ARM64 matures and Docker gets full multi arch image support we'll revisit this.

Creator of RancherOS here. Thanks for the interest in our tiny distro. RancherOS was created the beginning of 2015 and at the time was quite a novel concept. We strived to not just use container technologies in a Linux distro but actuall

I share your frustrations with CSDs but just because they are moving to GTK3 doesn't mean they will adopt CSDs. Can you refer me to what you saw that indicated they would do this? Or do I misunderstand that these two things are in fac

While the installation experience of Docker for Mac is very good, the unfortunate downfall of the project is they try to hide what is really going on. You are running a VM and through a series of very clever tricks and fancy technology the

As I read this again I'm quite confused what this announcement means. The mention of snap package makes it seems like "apt-get install docker..." would be a separate binary. A wild guess would be that 99% of Ubuntu users wi

Thanks, but this alludes to more operators coming. Why is such a thing really needed. The proliferation of this approach seems like a potential downfall of k8s. Similar to Mesos where a framework is quite powerful, the cost of developing

I would love to understand the design rational on why a custom controller is needed to run etcd as opposed to leveraging the existing k8s constructs such as replicasets or petsets. While this is a very useful piece of technology it gives m

Number one drawback of VSCode, for me, is poor vim keybindings, especially visual mode. If that was fixed I'd use it extensively.
