Cool stuff, a little confused by this quote though:
"The ultimate goal is to be able to use multiple clusters as just compute resources like there is a single big cluster."
- isn't this the point of the underlying K8s nodes?

I absolutely agree - sugar is definitely the issue. Most individuals don't get enough healthy fats due to marketing tactics. Stuff like Omega 3s and general unsaturated fats are incredibly important for brain function, reparation of tissue, etc.
