Some days ago I shared a script that would transform basic kubernetes manifests into docker compose and caddyfile. It was heresy, but controlled heresy.

The voice never stopped. Now it's an ecosystem with its own package manager, and it does CRDs with custom operators. It's extendable. It's documented. It's an insult to kubernetes.

Now you too have to live knowing this exist. And i'm sorry

I was going to try to goad you into making it work with docker swarm, but then I realized it already does that. Bravo, you beautiful psychopath.

Yeah, the best approach would've been a two step devolve, given swarm can do similar things as daemonset, and multi replicas. But no, this is a one step lobotomy, no child nor women were spared

Acronyms, initialisms, abbreviations, contractions, and other phrases which expand to something larger, that I've seen in this thread:

Fewer Letters More Letters
DNS Domain Name Service/System
HTTP Hypertext Transfer Protocol, the Web
IP Internet Protocol
SSL Secure Sockets Layer, for transparent encryption
nginx Popular HTTP server

5 acronyms in this thread; the most compressed thread commented on today has 6 acronyms.

It's an insult to kubernetes

Is it though?

[-] pokexpert30@jlai.lu 7 points 1 day ago

Yes, very much so

I wish half of the time at least a project status update was written in a fun way. Thanks for developing this further!
