penguin_linux··on Legalese – Computational Law
I'm finding it really difficult to understand what this software actually does. The name interests me... but wow this site is difficult read
penguin_linux··on Ask HN: Does anyone else find the AWS Lambda developer experience frustrating?
Try knative on k8s.

1. Some great tooling out there to shorten the dev loop on k8s. I use tools like skaffold or apache kamel k, but telepresence looks interesting too. 2. Minikube solves the "Localstack" issue. It's an official project that runs the exact infra, not just a replica of the APIs. 3. logging is far more straightforward than cloud watch. 4. It runs the same everywhere.

While I understand this viewpoint, and the comparison makes _some_ sense.. Kubernetes seems to solve all of these problems to me.

Kubernetes has the same developer experience everywhere. As far as OP's serverless trouble, why not just use knative?

penguin_linux··on BundleWrap: Simple Decentralized Configuration Management
I'm always surprised that projects like this continue to pop up, without any clear differentiator from the existing players.

Why do we need another config management tool when there are so many well established tools out there?

penguin_linux··on IBM Is Destroying Red Hat and Red Hatters Are Leaving
>AWS is about learning and memorising GUIs, not real skills, and those ‘skills’ become useless anyway as soon as you move to a customer/server that doesn’t have AWS

This is not my experience with AWS or Red Hat whatsoever. Most, if not all AWS users I've worked with use languages like terraform and emphasize importance of Infrastructure as Code, _not_using the GUI. Cloud concepts are more important than the GUI.

The same goes for the core concepts behind Ansible/Openshift. Both are not only available free, but they emphasize IaC over GUI.
