what is the psychosis in the k8s community where they feel the need to talk about losing thousands of dollars? it's a recurring theme with this community that they think somehow makes them look cool - wouldn't that be a clear sign that they should not be using k8s to begin with?

this community is ripe for implosion - what a joke

Most infrastructure folks love to talk about the expensive costs that occur from incidents like fires, the lazy infra engineers who don't do anything, hurricane shut down my data center, etc.

Devs like to focus on costs related to lost time. This is a pretty common trend and not really sure why you think that there's anything pathological about k8s. Maybe there's something pathological about infra folks in general and dev folks.

Truly learning kubernetes requires running it as a production system which runs the risk of incurring costs accidentally.

learning to develop a good drug habit runs the risk of incurring large costs as well - what's your point?

serious question, what do you use for deploying your services? scp fat bins on bare metal? podman and buildah? Maybe lxc? Ansible, etc? I've seen your posts but all I see are complaints, not remedies for what you seem to think is the scourge of kubernetes and docker.

it might surprise you that most devops/sysadmins don't use k8s/docker and think it's a disease - some of us are brave enough to speak our minds against the brownshirts that want to tear us down

You missed my question, what do you do in order to deploy your services?
