To the gargantuan number of people I meet everyday: Shift left in this context talks about SDLC (which is useful but quite old and unsurprising by today's standard). There are far more important and larger piece of shifting "lef

I could possibly not have explained as well as you did. Thanks for such a great articulation. It is _exactly_ what I wanted to say.

Here's the thing: Imagine you are in a boxing match, and your opponent looses the fight. The person who wins the fight would tell the opponent that they did well regardless; It's a courtesy. A sane person does not go around the ri

Yep agree. Be. Wrong. More. Corollary: Be right less. Being, wrong is a humble space to be in! Mind you, you can be the smartest chipmunk in the room; But, i think being curious _and_ being inquisitive is more important than *trying* to be

Déjà vu I wrote an implementation that _exactly_ did this PoC a decade ago. Modern network protocols have so much extra reserved bits that you can add pretty much anything want in it; keep going ;)

This is one of the pet peeves of HN submitters and readers :) Sure, here is my two cents FWIW - Kubernetes is complex for some set of folks but not for others. So, the answer is - depends ; On a lot of external factors outside of just tech
