Maybe You Don't Need Kubernetes

This may just relate to the circles I move in, but I'd have a hard time finding a group of what I'd call skilled developers, where not a single one can manage rsync or find their way around a Linux server in general.

It's all well and good at the "we need Kubernetes" scale to say you need specialists, but a team that can't manage a VPS is strange to me.

Wait until your VPS is breached because your OS wasn't patched, or because the firewall wasn't correctly configured. Learning is good, however, at a certain point I think it's fair that you can't minimize DevOps expertise to just "rsync" a jar or a docker image.

Nothing about "just use a PAAS" changes this. Sacking ops and telling developers to they should "just use EKS" or whatever is precisely why we keep seeing open S3 buckets and ES servers.
