Most Java developers I know and work with are pretty content with the state of affairs regarding error handling. But it sucks too.

Komi already ranges from 5.5 to 7.5 in tournaments today, I think. The long-term trend has so far always been upwards; as recently as the 50s 4.5 was standard.

It's written very well but the audience is server application programmers in 2011, not someone who has written a dozen services yet never seen a log rotator, "production mode", or an AF_UNIX socket in their whole career.

The 12 factor app that stored config in env vars found it trivial to migrate to ConfigMaps. The LOB apps today that expect complex ConfigMap layouts (at worst case, directly from the k8s API) are going to be hell to migrate to whatever come
