This is over-delicate introspection given reality that does not exist. Cultures differ, wars have been fought. This is something that either becomes overt or is sublimated successfully. Children think that understanding the underlying issue makes the problem go away.

> That produce nothing of value. What an amazingly naive point of view.

> Complaining about debt is usually a cover for bigotry. People don't want social equity or fairness because leveling the playing field... This could be a paragraph out of the millenial reactionaries handbook..not only are the concepts of social equity and fairness highly subjective and controversial but debasing majority cultural bias to construct a level playing field is so historically unsuccessful as to make it a philosophical curiosity (aside from with a singularly unsuccessful foray into the real world which ended in despotism and pogroms for all).

Sorry, can't share details as I enjoy being employed.

I'm a fan of cloud native kubernetes.

But: I've also been put in the terrible position of supporting a platform sold to run on kubernetes in an air gapped, on prem, bare metal environment.

But: I've also been put into the terrible position of fighting vendors armed with agile, k8s and microservices selling that combined mayhem as a replacement for an openmp,openacc based massively parallel, on prem, bare metal HPC system with a strongly conservative development and operational tradition.

I understand loving efficiency and time savings but not everything simply works better with k8s.

It's all about scale. Large scale requires an orchestrated application management system with progressively integrated bells and whistles and minimal fiddling with userspace. Small scale doesn't factor in. Do small scale the old way if you want: Binary artifacts, amis, home grown integrations and playbooks/scripts. Having done it both ways I continue to do it both ways. Run a monolith the old way and run your web tier, stateless and customer facing, highly available services in k8s. If it's not broken don't fix it (but for some use cases (large scale) the old way _was_ broken).
