Some highlights:

- How far behind Kubernetes was at the time of launch. Docker Swarm was significantly more simple to use, and Apache Mesos scheduler could already handle 10,000 nodes (and was being used by Netflix).

- RedHat's early contributions were key, despite having the semi-competing project of OpenShift.

- The decision to Open Source K8S came down to one meeting brief meeting at Google. Many of the senior engineers attended remotely from Seattle, not bothering to fly out because they thought their request to go OS was going to get shutdown.

- Brief part at the end where Kelsey Hightower talks about what he thinks might come after Kubernetes. He mentions, and I thought this was very interesting ... Serverless making a return. It really seemed like Serverless would be "the thing" in 2016-2017 but containers were too powerful. Maybe now with KNative or some future fusing of Container Orchestration + K8S?

That being said it was a particularly gut wrenching 2 days going over the numbers / figuring things out as I waited to collect the W2's and other forms.

I can't imagine how dealing with $80 million USD and 75~ people's job would feel.

I recall an article recently about organized crime gangs infiltrating the USPS. I wonder if this is the case here? [1]

It is unreported for obvious reasons, and few realize how easy it is to get away with. Families have lived in close quarters for a long time, and the opportunity is great for sexual gratification with another. Siblings often live in the same room. There are significant power dynamics at play when one sibling is 3 and the other is say 11. Yet there aren't the restraining forces of maturity on the 11 year old.

Sadly, the incest movement was probably set back 20 years due to its association with Satanic Ritual Abuse in the late 1980's and 1990's.

For those looking on help with this, I highly recommend the book "Courage to Heal" by Ellen Bass [1].

A sign of progress is that in the latest editions of the book, it also focuses on men. The early editions only focused on women.

None of the Scandinavian countries have really come to terms with the amount they assisted and gave in to the Nazi regime during WWII.

In the case of Norway, the only legal party in the country was the Nazi Party from 1942-1945 [1]. Sweden was similarly guilty, and would quickly move to pay reparations after the war. Most interestingly, this was arranged by I believe Linus Torvald's uncle (other members of his family have similar high positions in Swedish culture / history).

The "cloud" would be a much better option as it is incredibly powerful and the stability has been encoded into the highly similar hardware. See this classic text, the researcher who originally wrote it was hired by Google [1]
