SEGA has lost it's shine over the years, but IMO they are the greatest game company of all time. Their arcade output was STELLAR, their game dev teams were the most elite all through the mid 00's.
Seriously, look at their list of output. Just banger after banger. Not to mention their arcade hardware was top notch and was widely adopted.
My parents made me do everything, and were so fucking mean about everything, I ended up missing out on the things I actually enjoyed b/c I didn't want yet another thing to get yelled at about.
Specific: guitar and music
To be fair: part of it was to be rid of me and to not have to watch me.
Beauty pagents? Go take a good long look in the mirror. That is pathetic. Is that what you want your kids to value? Passivity? Whatever the fuck beauty pagents encourage?
This isn't a conspiracy theory it is just a fact. They already invested in the offices and the people who own everything have a lot of money in commercial real estate.
Helm, and a lot of devops tooling, is fundamentally broken.
The core problem is that it is a templating language and not a fully functional programming language, or at least a DSL.
This leads us to the mess we are in today. Here is a fun experiment: Go open 10 helm charts, and compare the differences between them. You will find they have the same copy-paste bullshit everywhere.
Helm simply does not provide powerful enough tools to develop proper abstractions. This leads to massive sprawl when defining our infrastructure. This leads to the DevOps nightmare we have all found ourselves in.
I have developed complex systems in Pulumi and other CDKs: 99% of the text just GOES AWAY and everything is way more legible.
You are not going to create a robust solution with a weak templating language. You are just going to create more and more sprawl.
Maybe the answer is a CDK that outputs helm charts.
Yes, this is the key. Helm charts should basically be manifests with some light customization.
Helm is not good enough to develop abstractions with. So go the opposite way: keep it stupid simple.
Pairing helm with Kustomize can help a lot as well. You do most of the templating in the helm chart but you have an escape hatch if you need more patches.
