ziggure··on What would a Kubernetes 2.0 look like
The concept of repeated operations executing with respect to some condition is always going to be a bit different in declarative / functional constructs than in imperative ones. A purely functional language is never going to have the equivalent of: for (...) a++;

Good functional languages like Clojure make something like this awkward and painful to do, because it doesn't really make sense in a functional context.

What I've learned comments here is that k8s is essentially already perfect, YAML is actually awesome, and that any criticism of k8s just proves the ignorance of the critic. I guess this means k8s 2.0 should look exactly like k8s 1.0.

ziggure··on Toward a Passwordless Future
The problem with passkeys is that they couple a security credential to a device containing lots of personal information.
