Why? Where is this written? Which law is this? Also: should they use 'their products' on every single piece of hardware they own?

This is like that old argument that you can't wear leather belts "if you really are a vegetarian". Ugh.

Can refind boot a .iso file that just happens to be on a disk somewhere? Grub can!

Kubernetes is a complicated solution to a complicated problem. A lot of companies have different problems and should look for different solutions. But if you are facing this particular problem, Kubernetes is the way to go. The trick is to understand which problem you are facing.

People equally mistake progress for progress.

But running a thousand miles East when success lies West...

This is why I love the age of AI. The age of all the answers. Literally 42.

It has never been more clear that the hardest part of our work is asking and understanding the right question.

It misunderstood my comment.

I never did understand the philosophy of _moving fast and breaking things_.

Instead I move intentionally: slow and therefore fast.

"Slow is smooth, and smooth is fast." If you move fast _and_ you break things you just end up with a lot of broken things. I never did understand this philosophy.

28304283409234 — Wed, 15 Apr 2026 07:50:53 +0000

The problem is reality.

I've found that Finance, and the Tax Office of any government, rarely care about your Agile processes. They have their yearly cycles, and C-Level will always want to follow _those_ cycles.

Then, for those that have schoolgoing kids or work with people that have schoolgoing kids (aka: everyone everywhere): there is the school vacations cycles.

These too rarely care about your scrum rituals or PI planning. This means that your calendar is not a reflection of reality: July/August barely exists. Same goes for November or December. And at the same time December is full of actual deadlines due to end-of-year financial cycles.

And finally: the complexity of the work itself rarely lends itself to the linear timelines people expect.

Rarely have I met a Product-person, or a SCRUM person, that actually understands this. And can account for it in their Agile way of working.

End result: a continuous stream of disappointment. What fun times we live in.
