I completely agree with this. Sometimes shit just needs to get done now, but not most of the time. I was recently working on a project that was built on Kubernetes and I was sick and fucking tired of the code -> build container -> update Helm chart -> deploy cycle so I looked around for a bit and found Skaffold which does all of that. Great investment!

Add Minikube in there and you'll be in swap city 💥

Government websites are the goddamn worst. You can always tell that some completely uninformed bureaucrat that wants to leverage the computer doohickey came up with the requirements. "You must use Internet Explorer version 10.6.389 or 10.72.4327 to access this site. If you don't have those exact versions, fuck you".

@electrineer I actually have a phone call with the recruiter tomorrow about how it went. I'm not sure how to professionally describe how I feel about it.

The first point hasn't always been my experience, but I cannot agree more with number 3!! I read an article a while ago about why you should never give a number for salary, have them offer first. Made a lot of sense to me and I haven't given a number since.

That is horrifying! What cruel individual would make someone use a Windows machine 😱
