Somebody should tell this to Kubernetes developers.
Also, thanks to Github's braindead UI of marking every issue as either "Open" or "Closed", once I click a Google link to any Kubernetes issue I have no idea if (1) the issue is closed because it was fixed in the latest version (so I have to upgrade), or (2) the issue is closed because it turned out to be invalid (so I have to search for something else), or (3) the issue wasn't solved at all, but Kubernetes team decided to tell everybody "Haha we don't care. And to really drive the point home that we don't care, we're gonna auto-close it for lack of activity."
So I have to scroll all the way down and read the discussion. Sorry, that was my pet peeve #168 for Kubernetes. Carry on.
