Company forgets why they exist after 11-week migration to Kubernetes
Xenobroom Inc., a young startup fresh out of Silicon Valley started a lengthy process of upgrading their server infrastructure back in May 2020. According to the remaining fragments of CEO's daily journal and CTO's engineering notes, the company enjoyed a sharp rise in daily use in the midst of the ...
The site name's a play on "The Onion" so it's gotta be satire, right? I couldn't find an about page to confirm.

I’ve got 20+ years of professional experience at all different levels. I can take an idea and turn it into a Docker image with fully automated CI/CD on myriad cloud platforms.
K8s is still black magic to me.
Just a system that deploys, injects configs, mounts dies, handles the networking based on configs and scheduling.
It CAN get more complicated since it enables more advanced deployment types, but it can be simple.
I run k3s on every computer of mine as a single node cluster now as an alt to running podman or docker.
Kubernthrees?
K3s is a k8s distribution built to be easy and light weight
K3s is a distribution of Kubernetes that bundles in a few commonly used convenient tools. It’s fairly lightweight compared to vanilla k8s, and it’s simple to setup. It’s a great choice for experimenting and learning and also production ready when you’re ready to push it farther.
I too am puzzled on why we changed subjects.
kubernetes kloud klan - they ride around discriminating against other types of infrastructure
I'd love to learn it, but my biggest hurdle has been getting a cluster actually running. Could you recommend a good tutorial?
I don't have a tutorial to recommend but starting to play around with Minikube myself, should skip the need for an actual cluster
Its black magic that takes docker images so its actually a pretty simple once u got all ya shit dockerified
Yeah it's like docker++. Somehow networking between pod is also easier than between container. Also with k9s and argocd it's much easier to see the entire cluster.
I enjoy K8s, even though it adds a lot of things that can (and will at some point) break. But at a certain scale it becomes worth it because some things become so, so easy.
I can absolutely see the benefit for really huge deployments or complex, highly-available systems. I've even sort of used it in my job working with those things. But I'm still just running commands I don't understand that some sysadmin gave me.
Re: your username,
You're a Godling of Semi Trucks that have a Hemi?
Lucky 10000: It's a pun. A quaver is a duration of a musical note in the UK, equivalent to a USA eighth note; a semidemihemiquaver is a sixtyfourth note, used to notate e.g. certain kinds of trumpet trills.
It's both of those, and a reference to Moana where the shiny crab calls Maui a "semi-demi mini-god"
