My understanding is that k8s was definitely never used internally at google (at least at the beginning). They may have learned some lessons from Borg, but k8s is very very much not Borg nor a Borg component. I remember lack of battle testin

I agree with the first half. TikTok is a national security issue and a reciprocity issue and for that reason it was a bad choice of example. You can look at other social media as a morality problem. I could see why someone would think of it

When I first looked at this graph, I did not have much emotional reaction. When you look closer, each unit on the axis represents 1 year of a person's income. Each line on that graph represents 2000 hours of life toiling for a basic li

I don't love insurance companies and I don't love the profit incentive they have. If a patient breaks a leg and a doctor recommends not experiencing gravity for a while, do we fly them to space? I am using hyperbole to demonstrate

I agree. However I think there is nuance. While objective truth exists nobody can know the objective truth, they can only approach it. Further, you can't approach the truth in an affirmative way, you can only approach it in a negative

No. I think time is finite and I think the act of spending time writing uncritical pieces on zelensky is a choice about how to spend the finite time. I think making that choice is an act of prioritization. I think zelensky's puff piece

I chose the war on purpose precisely to make that point. Why do you think there are any situations at all where people (at large) don't want reporting that reinforces their world view? How would you define neutrality, like a one senten

It turns the fed into the only arm of the government able to levy a new tax. Printing 20% more money doesn't seem materially different than taking 20% of everyone's money. Either way an individual is able to buy 20% less stuff and

Neutral isn't a thing. There is the truth and deviation from it. How much it deviates from the truth is a good criticism. How "neutral" it is says more about your beliefs than it says about the quality of reporting. Neutral i
