       I continue to be surprised by the number of developers on the internetz that want to run Kubernetes, Redis, Nginx, and more themselves just to run a simple web app. I mean, for fun, sure! But if your goal is to actually build something useful to others, which it often sounds like, then that’s just an advanced form of procrastination.

       @markus It's not procrastination, it's resume padding. You want to look like all the other cool kids right?

       @galdor Personally I think it's cooler to demonstrate shipped value, but to each their own. :D Some organisations prefer procrastination to value I guess.It baffles me how easy it is to build cool stuff these days, and how hard we make it for ourselves.
