Hilariously, Twitter is now displaying in Russian for me:

I did nothing to cause this on my computer or anywhere else. I have a US IP address.

It’s Putin! Gotta be.

Windows 10, from hell’s heart I stab at thee because from Microsoft’s butt you crap on me.

Fuck all the mooks and assclowns who have made computers and applications much less functional over the last seven years or so. Many things I used to do in seconds or minutes take twice as long now or are just impossible.

If the tradeoff is someone with the intelligence of a rutabaga can now use a computer, it was very much not worth it.

The future of Kubernetes is Virtual Machines. Agreed, sort of. Containers are insecure and difficult to use by default.

A bunch of young people with no experience slapped something together that resembled many bad ideas from 20-30 years ago. Kubernetes is by default insecure, wasteful, slow, and in general a terrible idea (unless you enjoy wasting time/money).

Doing all these absurd workarounds to make it function correctly is just a huge waste of everyone’s time. Containers might be the future, but it’s a bad future.

Part of this is just the tendency for any professional field to make anything they touch as complex as possible so that it keeps the barriers to entry high. That is not a little of what we are seeing here.
