I have been using ksonnet but that is now officially dead. Working with jsonnet seemed unnecessarily painful when coming from coding typescript. This information is quite timely and welcome, I'll look further at the ts example.

- The goal

- Running lean

This is beautiful in its simplicity and still has a piece of truth.

It will likely always be true. It is human nature.

I'm not sure you understand the value k8s proposes based on your comments throughout this entire thread.

Managing many nodes is the reason orchestration software exists. Your suggestion to "put some effort into configuration management" is effectively naive, homegrown orchestration.

Build or buy? That's the same argument - except k8s is free and available from many providers.

So it is evil unless I can prove otherwise? Your straw man has been exposed. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straw_man

I get the sense that the naysayers outweight the supporters, simply because the headline alone is not news. Don't let them deter you, spend a few hours and decide for yourself.

Polyglot (multiple tech/languages), unknown scale, dramatic flash traffic or potential thereof.

Really your next step in general is understanding containers and where they might be useful. K8s consideration is probably after that.

What keeps people highly coupled with could provider is not where their code is running but rather other "here only" solutions like custom DBs or infrastructure.

I agree, and the advent of k8s adoption is one less thing that locks you into a provider.

What are the alternatives of which you speak?

Which part of kubernetes is "developed with the intention to eventually get you to use the hosted version"?

Offering software for free, software that is widely adopted cannot be based on the motivations you propose, unless there is a grand conspiracy of cloud providers for which I am unaware.

Use k8s exactly for the reason of either being federated across cloud providers or simply portable across cloud providers. You can't do that with vendor specific solutions e.g. elastic beanstalk

That's effectively anti-globalization. Adapt and overcome. Good developers will always have a job in the forseeable decades to come, weak or stagnant developers will be at risk, it is a maturing industry. White knuckling tech by resisting change/momentum is no more effective than starting a trade war with tariffs.

Yes. Based solely on your desire to be on top of tech and given the broad adoption by every major provider, you probably want to invest at least a couple of days.

That doesn't mean there is any impetus to transition your current production, only that it is most definitely worth a cursory understanding for the future.

All major cloud providers have/will have managed kubernetes and they are free to use the name, therefore I doubt it could be regarded as direct marketing for GCP. I would expect many to consider GCP but I just don't perceive this as a backdoor way of Google getting your apps, given the broad buy-in by the cloud provider community.

Myself and many others are using typescript styling with success. If you have a specific problem, please file an issue so we can take a look.

React in it's stated goal IS quite easy, but I agree, to become a master, you should learn a few patterns quickly.

I don't feel like react's docs are misleading - like anything - mastery requires investment.

Read the DSM description. If you are a technologist you will recognize the format, it is a set of tests that you can likely apply yourself. While I recommend leaving it to a professional, your own curiosity can lead to quite a bit of learning.

Perhaps, but uncertainty plagues all those in the borderline's sphere of influence, and more likely than not, it's a save yourself situation. If you are realistically willing to give your life for this BPD, then by all means stick it out and good luck to you. But don't presume it is any more hopeful than highly unlikely of even leading a troubled relationship. Most likely a relationship full of anguish - probability speaking.

The closest thing to a magic wand I've ever seen seen or heard of. Living with trauma for 38 years only to have it wiped away in 5 50 minute sessions. Amazing! I then spent 3 years in psychotherapy learning to be a person (literally a child in an adult's body), but it was life saving. Profound.

Stop going to counselors. The standard for counselors is surprisingly low, and many are damaged themselves and bring their own biases into sessions. Research PHDs in your area and talk with a psychotherapist. Go on your own, without your wife and find your bearings. They will help you from there. Don't be afraid to find a different one early if you don't feel they are connecting with you.

Philwelch, I think you and I need to have several beers.

This is the only hope, but I'm afraid one would have to put limits on the amount of time spent in a relationship and do some reflecting on their own life and goals. Realistically, is one willing to spend decades with a BPD in therapy hoping for good results? I'm just trying to guard against false hope.

This sounds like splitting, exactly what a BPD would say. I am suspicious.

I applaud your effort, and I don't want this to be hurtful, but borderlines are chameleons, and I want you to guard against false hope. Good luck, but I'm afraid it is a battle that cannot be won (at this time).

I'm a child of a borderline with narcissistic tendencies. I had PTSD until the age of 38, then underwent EMDR therapy that changed my life. I can now live a full life, and I accept there is absolutely no reason for my mother to ever be included in my life again.

I praise anyone's attempt to help a BPD, but I hold no hope for a solution.

Some referred to "Stop walking on eggshells" as outdated, but I found it a revelation that significantly helped in my understanding and recovery.

I would be interested in the "Why" another form project. I haven't found the exact form solution I want, so it would be nice to know the motivations for this project vs the other offerings so I can easier see they align with my concerns.

I agree. My businesses now all have remote-able workers, though most of the time we want to work together. VR bridging that gap could make a huge difference (think whiteboard sessions). I think in general alleviating the requirement to be somewhere such as the majority of peoples 8-5 jobs will change traffic patterns dramatically.

This alone might make it appealing to take normal methods (car or autonomous car) into the city for leisure.

I'm rich and white living in Williamson county. I moved here when I wasn't rich (but still white) because Franklin (seat of Williamson County) is a great place to live.

I would welcome rail from here to Nashville, I don't get up there much primarily due to traffic. I've lived in many places, including Manhattan and San Francisco, and I sorely miss the convenience of the train.

Simply put, rapid transit would be great for commerce in Nashville and it would either alleviate in some way or at least mitigate traffic congestion that will be compounded by the rapid growth of Nashville's suburban communities. I think costs of extensions into these communities should be shared, but ultimately funding rapid transit through sales tax makes sense because commerce/tax base should increase.

Anyway - just came here to give some perspective - don't get the impression that Williamson County, Tennessee is full of racists. It is not as diverse as Davidson County, but nonetheless a wonderful place to live.

EDIT: I forgot to mention that I'm anxious to see how autonomous cars will affect situations like the one facing Nashville.

It seems to me that you open a URL to pay for the invoice.

Root cause: bad sickness/time off/work from home policies.
