Re:The Cult of Kubernetes

I was trying to get airflow (https://airflow.apache.org/) up and running in the cloud. It has a few moving pieces that I didn't want to worry about. So I used a helm chart to install it - https://github.com/helm/charts/blob/master/stable/airflow
Maybe this is overkill but it was reasonably quick to get up and running, scaling workers will be trivial, and the Airflow Kubernetes Operator opens up a lot of options for tasks. The vanilla install was pretty quick. Understanding the configurations took a bit more time.
I would like to hear other thoughts about simpler ways to deploy this that don't require Kubernetes.

This seems like a similar phenomenon to the anti vax movement. I currently only pay glancing attention to the anti vaxers. I believe they're crazy and write it off because it has very little to do with my life. I imagine I would've done the same thing during this satanic cult scare. Mass hysteria coupled with conspiracy beliefs are a thing in America.
